Mold Removal
Mold Remediation refers to the safe removal of mold spores and mold colony growth from contaminated buildings and homes.
The purpose of mold remediation is to remove the mold to prevent human exposure and damage to building materials and personal contents. It is necessary to clean up mold contamination, not just to kill the mold. Dead (non-viable) mold spores can still be allergenic, and some dead mold spores are potentially toxic.
These are general guidelines that AdvantaClean follows during a mold remediation project. A variety of mold cleanup methods are available for the remediation of damage to building materials and contents caused by moisture control problems and mold growth. The specific method or group of methods used will depend on the type of material affected and the property specific conditions.
Work areas are typically contained in an effort to control, contain, and limit the release of mold or other contaminants into surrounding areas.
Whether dead or alive, mold is allergenic, and some molds may be toxic. Mold can generally be removed from nonporous (hard) surfaces by wiping or scrubbing with water, or water and detergent.
HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuums are used for final cleanup of remediation areas after materials have been thoroughly dried and contaminated materials removed. HEPA vacuums are also used for cleanup of dust that may have settled on surfaces outside the remediation area.
