What is Mold Remediation?
Mold remediation is both the process of removing mold from your home and the process of eliminating mold, taking steps to prevent further mold growth and sanitizing your home. Essentially, mold remediation removes unwanted mold from your home and then takes resolving the mold problem a few steps further. The mold remediation process involves many crucial steps which usually includes:
- Mold assessment as well as mold type identification
- Containment of the area to prevent mold spores moving
- Removal of mold
- Cleaning the air
- Sanitization of the affected area
Additionally, our experienced team can give you preventive recommendations to help keep your home free from mold. Simply removing mold from your home doesn’t guarantee it will be gone. Without proper cleaning mold can grow back. Mold spores are capable of moving unseen through the air, once they land on a new surface, they can begin to grow new mold. Mold remediation seeks to ensure your home is free from mold as completely as possible and identifies and resolves the original cause of mold growth.
