First steps

Before You Use Mold Remediation Services for a Property in 11702

Preserve helpful records, keep from disturbing growth and stop water only when safe to do so.

Call (844) 352-3560
  1. Stop the water safely. Shut off a leaking fixture or arrange a repair. Keep clear of wet electrical equipment and standing water.
  2. Limit access. Close the door when possible. Keep visible growth out of reach of children and pets.
  3. Avoid spreading particles. Never scrape or brush mold, or sand mold, without containment. If HVAC equipment might contain mold, shut the equipment off.
  4. Photograph the damage. Before moving anything, document damaged items, the leak and growth you can see. Find out which documentation your insurer requires.

Health and safety

Understanding Mold Removal Safety for Greater New York Properties

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

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.

Some People Face More Risk

Mold may bring on symptoms of allergies and asthma for some people. People with weak immune systems, asthma or lung disease are more at risk, according to the CDC.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Particles can escape when you pull carpet or cut drywall. Negative air pressure and HEPA filtration help limit movement.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

Your insulation, subfloor or framing could still be wet despite a surface appearing dry. The affected area is clearer with moisture readings.

What you get

Selecting Your Babylon Mold Remediation Company

Use Independent Clearance Testing

An independent assessor can perform any needed post-remediation verification so the company doing removal does not also check that work.

Seek Clarity in Your Scope of Work

Look for affected materials, containment, drying, cleanup and repairs in the scope, along with possible reasons for price changes.

Start With the Moisture Source

Request an explanation of how the leak or condensation or humidity issue will be identified and resolved.

Step by step

Understanding the Mold Remediation Process in Greater New York

Assessment comes first in these mold remediation steps, then containment, damaged material removal, cleaning, drying, work verification and, last, removal of containment.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    A moisture meter and, when useful, a thermal imaging camera help trace the moisture source and affected materials.

  2. Containment and Air Filtration

    Use poly sheeting to create 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 wear protective equipment. Drywall removal or other demolition of damaged porous materials may be needed.

  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 may include a visual check, clearance testing or air sampling by an independent assessor.
