Do you have Mold? Is it toxic mold? Do you have water damage from a flooded basement which is causing moisture to buildup in your home or business? The moisture associated with water intrusions will promote the growth of toxic mold such as Stachybotrys, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium.

The longer an indoor contaminant is allowed to remain intact, the greater its potential impact on human health and on the structural integrity of the facility. Mold can grow on most common building materials if they remain wet for 24 to 48 hours. Special care must be taken during the mold removal and restoration process or serious health hazards can develop.

Our mold remediation technicians are fully trained and are proficient with the latest equipment, materials and techniques. We specialize in remediation of mold, bacteria, water and sewage damage cleanup in your facility.

You can reach us at 1-800 222-6815 if you are having any water, sewage, smoke damage, or mold problems!

Mold Removal Tips and Hints

Mold Removal is one of those subjects we would all be happy to ignore forever, unfortunately mold can be dangerous especially for young children and the elderly. There are certified water removal specialists who can come to your home and test for mold or there are several do it yourself kits that can be found to test for mold in your home. The only problem with mold is that it can grow anywhere there is a water problem, from a flooded basement to a dripping shower head. Some mold can be seen with the naked eye such as the type that can grow on interior window frames. Unfortunately some mold grows behind walls, under floors, crawl spaces, or in your basement. This type of mold can be difficult to detect yourself unless you are willing to get a pry bar and literally begin to pull your house apart.

This is where the mold removal pros come in. They can come to your home and take air samples which are analyzed in a laboratory and the results will definitely state whether or not mold spores are present or not. Anytime an area has flood damage or sewage damage there is a high likelihood that mold removal will be required. This is one of the main reasons professional companies exist that provide this type of service. Mold spores can range from being a minor respiratory ailment to the cause of life threatening illness. If you are worried your house may have mold, a good indicator that it does is if your family is getting ill more frequently than they used to. Many mold related illnesses mask themselves as colds and people sometimes assume they are just having a run of bad luck by getting sick all the time when in fact the mold spores in their home are to blame.

As any veteran of the water restoration and specifically, mold removal business will tell you mold in the home is a serious problem that should be deal with as soon as possible. After you hire a mold removal company to come in and take care of the mold in your home you can expect men to come in and work in full ventilation gear. They will put up sheets of plastic to seal off the room they are working in. Then a fan is set up to create negative pressure in that room. Basically what that means is the pressure in the room keeps the mold from flying into other parts of the house.

They will scrape, pull apart, and scour, every inch of the room with the suspected mold issue and then bag it and have a hazmat team remove the debris. They will also spray a chemical that retards the growth of mold in the future. An important thing to remember is that destroying the mold is an important step, but if the mold was in your flooded basement, the basement will still flood unless the leak is found and fixed. If you simply do mold removal and close the walls up you will definitely perform mold removal again in a few years.
