Health and safety

Safe Mold Removal for Properties in Greater New York

Containment is important to keep clean rooms from receiving mold spores and dust when affected materials are disturbed.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Cutting drywall or pulling carpet can release particles. To reduce movement, use negative air pressure together with HEPA filtration.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

A dry-looking surface can hide wet framing, insulation or subfloor. Use moisture readings to identify the affected area.

Some People Face More Risk

Mold can trigger allergy and asthma symptoms in some people. The CDC identifies people with lung disease, weak immune systems or asthma as being at greater risk.

Color Does Not Measure Risk

Search terms include toxic mold and black mold. According to the CDC, mold color cannot tell you the level of risk.

Step by step

Understanding the Mold Remediation Process in Greater New York

The mold remediation steps start with assessment and containment, followed by damaged material removal, cleaning, drying and verification, before containment comes down.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    A moisture meter helps locate your moisture source and affected materials, with a thermal imaging camera used when helpful.

  2. Containment and Air Filtration

    Poly sheeting forms a containment barrier. Clean rooms receive fewer migrating particles with negative air pressure and an air filtration device, the HEPA air scrubber.

  3. Removal of Damaged Materials

    Workers make use of protective equipment. Damaged porous materials may require demolition, including drywall removal.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    Remaining non-porous surfaces are cleaned using damp wiping along with a HEPA vacuum. Use moisture readings, a dehumidifier and air movers to guide drying.

  5. Final Cleaning and Verification

    Post-remediation verification can involve clearance testing, a visual examination or air sampling, carried out by an independent assessor.
