How do we make an appointment for a mold testing/inspection and remediation? 1. How does your company differ from the other mold remediation / mold abatement companies ? We advocate the use of the new microbial and antibiostatic technologies and products that exist today that allows us to save a wall or structure, by remediating the mold instead of tear down and replace it. Unless there is structural damage done to the wall - it does not necessarily have to be replaced. The cost savings comes about from not having huge replacement/rebuilding costs. We have an on-site portable lab for quality control testing of our products and processes during several stages of the remediation work. Qualified mold inspectors and certified mold remediators on-site managing your project. We use the latest EPA approved anti-microbial / anti-biostatic products that have lower toxicity to humans, but greater effectiveness on the long term suppression of mold growth. We assess the possibility of "hidden" mold being discovered during remediation and abatement process, and discuss this with the property owner prior to commencing the project on a plan of action, should this occur. 2. What types of buildings can be treated ? Virtually any building with mold Residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial complexes Schools, pre-schools, day care centers, playrooms, hospices and special care units Specialty treatments for Baby's rooms Treatments suitable for crawlspaces, attics, unfinished basement and carpets Mold preventative treatments for new homes and buildings under construction Flood damage, fire damaged buildings 3. How do I choose a mold remediation and abatement company? When property owners are looking for mold remediation companies - you need to become educated on the subject of mold. You have to ascertain which method that particular company uses - and which method best suits your own philosophies. There are several questions that the property owner should ask: Demolition and replacement, do they attempt to minimize reconstruction? Do they wash with toxic chemicals (usually metal based) not suitable for indoors ? Some use a combination of 1 and 2, reconstruction + toxic chemicals Does the company use chlorine bleach in its process ? ( professional companies don't) Can the company offer a guarantee ? Does the company restore items like carpets, upholstered furniture, curtains - or do the just recommend disposal and replacement ? Does the company provide a full written report on the scope of work that has to be preformed before the job begins ? Can the company also treat the crawlspace ? Often the source of the problem - many companies do not Do they have products that are safe to use in an HVAC system - or do they just recommend a filter replacement ? Does the company have experience with contaminants other than mold ? Can the remediation company identify if there is more than one cause to a problem, or is their experience limited to water intrusion? Not all allergic or sick house syndromes are caused by mold or mold spores alone. Bacterial infections, hydrocarbon (leaks from heating oil tanks), sewage problems from septic problems/backups ( often cause a combination of problems mold + bacterial) can often be plaguing older homes and buildings. Do they have the knowledge to recognize and treat it ? Does your remediation company offer you confidentiality ? We use unmarked vehicles on site and there is no release of information unless you authorize it. 4. What can I expect a mold remediation and abatement company to do when they arrive at my property ? If this is the first visit to your property, we will begin with a full inspection. We bring a portable lab with us to every job site and do a full inspection. We use non-invasive testing where possible, but if the problem appears to be severe, then we use the latest in equipment to put miniature cameras behind walls ( drilling a small hole ) to inspect the area. We then take air samples from behind the wall. We ascertain if other contaminants are involved and try to find the source (or sources) for the problem. The "ground zero" so to speak. Is the mold cause by condensation or moisture intrusion or both ? Fixing a leak may not address the only source of the problem. How far has it spread? Is there damage to the structural integrity or is the problem with staining and cosmetic issues? Are there other associated problems, dust, other allergens such as high indoor pollen counts, asbestos ? Then we give the homeowner a full report. This outlines, step by step, what needs to be done. This document can then be used to get other remediation companies to quote on doing the job, or decide if you want to do it yourself. See our page on Mold Inspection and testing for more details. 5. What is involved in the actual mold removal process ? We use a 7 step process: Identification - Inspection and identification of extent of the mold contamination on the property, negative air and dehumidification equipment are positioned according to the protocols stipulated for that job. Containment areas are established, and the area is prepared for remediation process. Remove the odor - Our remediation process uses a series of treatments that biologically digest and bioremediate the mold, the toxins and VOC's (the bad smell that mold gives off). Treat any other organics - During this first phase we identify and treat any other organic contaminants. Cleaning and treatments - This is followed up by the use some of the newest technology antibiostatics and anti-microbial washes to treat the area - any remaining mold stains are treated - the area is then dried. Full inspection, Quality Control - After the wash and drying - a full visual inspection is conducted and a microscopic examination of the problem areas are used to identify and determine if a third wash is required. The latest in Mold Remediation Technology. Then final step involves fogging the entire area with provides an invisible, durable microbiostatic finish that protects surfaces against biodeterioration by inhibiting microbial growth, preventing the mold from returning. This product will deliver effective inhibition of mold/mildew and algae, while killing and preventing the spread of common household germs; thus protecting surfaces, against deterioration, discoloration and odors. Final Inspection - This is followed up with a final visual inspection and microscopic testing to ensure that all identified and treated areas are within specification, and that the odor has not returned and all signs of mold and mold staining have been removed. Relative humidity levels and moisture levels in treated surfaces are checked, any repairs for water intrusion are inspected.
