Our Process
- 01
Inspection & testing
We assess visible mold, take air and surface samples, and use moisture meters to find the source. Lab results typically return within 24–48 hours.
- 02
Containment
We isolate the affected area with polyethylene sheeting and HEPA-filtered negative air machines to prevent cross-contamination to clean areas.
- 03
Removal
All porous materials with mold growth (drywall, insulation, carpeting) are removed and bagged per IICRC S520 standards. Non-porous surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and cleaned.
- 04
Treatment
Structural materials that can't be removed (framing, joists) are treated with EPA-registered anti-microbial agents and allowed to dry fully before clearance.
- 05
Clearance testing
Post-remediation air samples are compared against pre-remediation and outdoor baseline levels. We don't leave until you get a written clearance.
