First steps

Stop the water if it is safe, avoid disturbing growth and preserve useful records.

Call (844) 352-3560

  2. Limit access. When you can, shut the door. Keep visible growth out of reach of children and pets.
  3. Avoid spreading particles. Without containment, avoid sanding, scraping or brushing mold. If HVAC equipment might contain mold, shut the equipment off.
  4. Photograph the damage. Document the leak and damage to items, including visible growth, before moving anything. Ask your insurer what records are necessary.

Health and safety

Greater New York Properties: Mold Removal Safety

Your affected materials can spread mold spores and dust to clean rooms when disturbed, which is why containment matters.

Some People Face More Risk

For some people, mold may trigger asthma and allergy symptoms. People with weak immune systems, asthma or lung disease are more at risk, according to the CDC.

Color Does Not Measure Risk

Search terms include toxic mold and black mold. You cannot judge mold risk by color, the CDC says.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

Your insulation, subfloor or framing could still be wet despite a surface appearing dry. Moisture readings help define the affected area.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Particles can escape when you pull carpet or cut drywall. To reduce movement, use negative air pressure together with HEPA filtration.

Step by step

Understanding the Mold Remediation Process in Greater New York

These mold remediation steps follow this order: assess the area, contain it, remove damaged material, clean, dry and verify the work, then take containment down.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    Locating the moisture source and affected materials involves a moisture meter, supplemented by a thermal imaging camera when useful.

  2. Containment and Air Filtration

    Poly sheeting forms a containment barrier. To limit particles entering clean rooms, negative air pressure works alongside an air filtration device called a HEPA air scrubber.

  3. Removal of Damaged Materials

    Workers make use of protective equipment. Drywall removal or other demolition of damaged porous materials may be needed.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    A HEPA vacuum and damp wiping clean remaining non-porous surfaces. Air movers, a dehumidifier and moisture readings 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.
