Our Mold Remediation Process
1. Mold Inspection & Assessment
We conduct a thorough inspection to identify visible and hidden mold growth, determine the extent of contamination, and identify the underlying moisture sources.
2. Containment & Air Filtration
We establish containment barriers and negative air pressure to prevent mold spores from spreading to unaffected areas during the remediation process.
3. Mold Removal & Cleaning
Using specialized techniques and antimicrobial treatments, we remove mold from affected surfaces and materials, or remove materials that cannot be salvaged.
4. Moisture Source Correction
We identify and address the underlying moisture issues that led to mold growth to prevent recurrence.

We restore affected areas and implement preventive measures to maintain proper humidity levels and prevent future mold growth.
