The Mold Remediation Process

Restoration’s thorough approach to mold remediation ensures that your home is not only free from puroclean Olympia mold but also protected from potential future infestations. Our mold remediation process is designed to address both the symptoms and the source of your mold problem. Our goal is to ensure your home is safe, healthy, and mold-free.

When conducting mold remediation, our technicians will:

Identify Moisture Problems
The first step in our mold remediation process is identifying the source of moisture that is contributing to the mold growth. This could be due to leaks, high humidity, or other water-related issues. We use advanced moisture detection tools to pinpoint these problems, ensuring that we address the root cause of the mold.

Collaborate with Industrial Hygienists
Understanding the type of mold is vital for effective treatment. We engage a third-party Industrial Hygienist who specializes in environmental health. The hygienist will take samples of the mold growth for analysis to accurately identify the mold species. This step is crucial in determining the most effective remediation strategy.

Isolate Areas of Mold
Once we’ve identified the areas affected by mold, we isolate them to prevent the spread of mold spores to other parts of your home. This may involve sealing off the affected area with plastic sheeting and using negative air pressure to keep mold spores contained.

Discard Absorbent Materials
Materials that have absorbed moisture and have mold growth, such as carpeting, insulation, or ceiling tiles, are often impossible to fully clean. We safely discard these materials to prevent the mold from spreading or returning.

Remove All Mold
Our team meticulously removes all visible mold from the affected areas using appropriate techniques and cleaning agents. We ensure that the mold is completely removed from surfaces such as walls, floors, and ceilings, as well as from hidden areas.

Thoroughly Dry the Residence
After removing the mold, it’s crucial to thoroughly dry the affected areas to prevent the mold from returning. We use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove excess moisture and bring humidity levels back to normal.

Analyze Air Quality
Maintaining good air quality is crucial in preventing and controlling mold growth. Our team conducts comprehensive air quality tests to detect the presence of mold spores in your home. This analysis helps us determine the severity of the situation and formulate an effective remediation plan.
