  2. A visible inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians examine for visible microbial growth and look in areas that could be overlooked.

The mold testing devices ensure thorough testing for. In the event that it is necessary, air sample tests are conducted by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP collects samples and test every suspected room. Every mold isn't the exact same and the proper tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from merely nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protection of the members of the family and the rest of the home against the airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This establishes an safe boundary for removal and work can begin. The type of containment employed will differ according to the zone of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination, less then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local: One room which is able to be sealed off and cleaned, typically 10 sq. ft. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas where there is a need for an interim containment barrier to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate an entire room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installment of portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. Protecting the family from airborne pathogens can be achieved by creating negative air pressures between the affected area and the remainder of the home.
  6. Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, the technicians begin to remove materials impacted by mold. This may include baseboards, drywall and sinks, cabinets or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary in the event of there was a roof leak occurred. It may require removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has been able to penetrate the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Skilled technicians are meticulous in keeping what is saved while ensuring removal of any trace of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials were removed professional grade treatment and removal products are used, following IICRC guidelines. The surfaces that remain are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment has been complete, air purification is performed for several days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification process is completed, post-remediation air sample testing takes place. conducted and is given a passing grade by the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After post-remediation testing is finished and air tests are deemed acceptable by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment are removed. This leaves a clean palette for bringing in contractors to repair the walls or flooring or redesign the kitchen or bath as needed.
