Mold removal is a complex process that is best left to mold removal professionals. Trying to eliminate it yourself, or having a general contractor do it, usually yields poor results. The fact is that it will likely cause the mold to spread, creating a larger problem than you initially had.
Here is what you can expect when you call Certified Mold Removal Inc.:
Immediate Response
Someone will take your call immediately. We will ask you several questions to get a better understanding of what you are observing. Our mold testing experts will come out to your property that day to test for both physical and airborne mold. We use a third-party laboratory to process the samples gathered from your property, and if needed we can expedite them to have your test results back within 24 hours.
Testing and Assessment of Mold Damage
We will pinpoint the source of the mold, whether it is due to a plumbing leak, flood damage, poor ventilation, or other cause, so we can ensure that the mold doesn’t return after removal and cleaning.
Our certified mold inspector will take the time to carefully explain to you the removal procedures that will be necessary during the course of your remediation project. Our job is to ensure that both the physical contamination as well as the air quality in your home or business will be back to normal when the mold removal process is complete.
Containing the Mold
We utilize a variety of procedures to contain the mold, so there is no spread or cross-contamination. If not done already, we will shut off the HVAC system and any fans in the area as we eradicate the mold from the area.
We use special filtration devices to capture mold spores that are in the air. Any mold that may be airborne must be removed through a combination of fogging, the use of HEPA vacuums, commercial air scrubbers, and cleaning and sanitizing the HVAC system (Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning system). Additionally, “air scrubbers” keep these spores from spreading during the mold removal process.
Removal of Mold
Using special antimicrobial, and antifungal treatments, we treat and eliminate mold colonies. If the mold has begun to consume porous materials like drywall, ceiling tiles, insulation, or carpeting, we will remove and dispose of the affected materials from the home.
Professional Cleaning
Once we have removed the mold, our highly-trained technicians will clean framing, flooring, mechanical systems, or other structural elements where mold was found. We will also work to improve your indoor air quality. Special attention may also be needed for items like curtains, furniture, decor, documents, and the like following mold remediation of the area.
Home Restoration
If your home is heavily affected by mold, porous surfaces like subflooring, drywall, ceiling tiles, or other building materials may need to be removed. If this is the case, our professional mold removal team will take care of restoration, including things like painting, and replacing drywall insulation and trim. Major reconstruction may also be necessary in some cases, depending on the severity of the mold growth in a given area.
