Tackling Mold Removal and Remediation for Complete Property Recovery

A Call From the Client and an Initial Inspection

When the homeowner contacted us, they were concerned about a mold issue in several rooms. Our team arrived quickly and did a thorough inspection of the affected areas, including the hallway, kitchen, dining room, and bedroom. We found mold on shoes in the hallway, under and on the carpet, on kitchen cabinets, the dining table, the coffee table, and on the bed in the bedroom.

Steps We Took to Tackle the Mold and Complete the Property Recovery

We followed a well-planned approach to tackle the mold issue and ensure a successful property recovery. Our process involved a series of strategic actions designed to contain the problem, safeguard our team, and restore the affected areas to their original condition. Here’s a closer look at the steps we took:

Containment and Safety Measures

To ensure a thorough and safe mold remediation process, we took the following steps:

1. Containment: We set up containment barriers using plastic sheeting and negative air machines to prevent the spread of mold spores to unaffected areas. This ensured that the mold remained confined to the contaminated zones.
2. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Our team prioritized safety by wearing full PPE, including gloves, masks, and suits, to protect themselves from exposure to mold spores throughout the remediation process.

Removal of Contaminated Materials

We began by removing and safely disposing of the contaminated shoes, carpet, and any affected furniture, such as the dining table, coffee table, and bed. In the kitchen, we carefully cleaned and treated the cabinets.

Cleaning and Disinfection

Using HEPA vacuums, we cleaned all surfaces to remove mold spores. We then applied anti-microbial solutions to disinfect and prevent future mold growth. Special attention was given to areas under the carpet and in hard-to-reach spots.

Drying and Dehumidification

Moisture control was important in this mold remediation project. We set up dehumidifiers to reduce humidity levels and make sure the areas were thoroughly dried. Air scrubbers were also used to improve air quality by filtering out mold spores.

Final Inspection and Happy Client 

After the remediation process, we did a final inspection to make sure that all mold was successfully removed and the affected areas were thoroughly cleaned and dried. The homeowner was pleased with the results and expressed their satisfaction with the detailed service we provided. We also provided them with tips on how to prevent future mold growth, such as maintaining proper ventilation and monitoring humidity levels.
