Do you have Mold? Is it toxic mold? Do you have water damage from a flooded basement which is causing moisture to buildup in your home or business? The moisture associated with water intrusions will promote the growth of toxic mold such as Stachybotrys, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium.
The longer an indoor contaminant is allowed to remain intact, the greater its potential impact on human health and on the structural integrity of the facility. Mold can grow on most common building materials if they remain wet for 24 to 48 hours. Special care must be taken during the mold removal and restoration process or serious health hazards can develop.
Our mold remediation technicians are fully trained and are proficient with the latest equipment, materials and techniques. We specialize in remediation of mold, bacteria, water and sewage damage cleanup in your facility.
You can reach us at 1-800 222-6815 if you are having any water, fire, smoke, or mold problems!
Mold Removal: Eliminating the Unwelcome Visitor
They are just about everywhere. And there is no telling when they will appear or where they are going. You can find them down in the basement, or in the bathroom. They just love to hangout in those warm, moisture-laden places, settling down and inviting their own kind in order to build their own community. Like any typical unlawful tenant, they just arrive without any warning whatsoever.
Yes, molds are like that. They have the habit of just being there without being invited. Molds can be likened to home crashers who plague some or many parts of your house, especially the kitchen, the bathroom or any place that has high moisture content due to the presence of water. Maybe you forgot to fix the leaky pipe, or you still haven't gotten around to sealing the cracks on the bathroom walls or the gutter has sprouted new holes because it is aged. No matter what the reason is, the molds are there and its time to implement mold removal procedures.
Mold removal activity is a challenging procedure that a homeowner undergoes at one point in his life. Molds are hard to remove, particularly because they leave stains and seep deeply into materials when they are left unnoticed. But before engaging in any mold removal process, be sure to have all the necessary equipment and attire to fight off the molds.
First of all you have to get yourself goggles, face mask and elbow length gloves. The goggles must be used because the mold spores will irritate the eyes and could make it sore red - so just to be on the safe side, wear goggles. A face mask is also needed to cover your nose and mouth and avoid the direct entry of dust and mold spores into your respiratory system. Entry of mold spores from this point could trigger asthma, cough, sneezing and other forms of respiratory allergies and sickness. Wear gloves and long sleeved work shirts since these items will protect you from the dust and molds which may cause rashes or itching. Remember; do not take the effect of molds on the human health lightly because they are very hazardous. And if you prefer to do mold removal from your house yourself, then employ means to protect yourself.
Aside from wearing the correct cleaning attire, the mold removal process requires you to have a brush, soap, water, rags and bleach. Brush the area where the molds are present and rinse it thoroughly afterwards. Apply the bleach directly to remove any stains. Let it stand for some time before rinsing the bleach with clean water. If the mold stains are still present apply bleach a second time. If you have any mold removal chemical, you could also use this instead of bleach. Make sure to apply as per manufacturer's instruction for it to be effective. The application normally is done more than twice or thrice until the mold stain is no longer visible.
In general, molds do reappear after sometime. When this happens, the mold removal procedure to be done is to remove the wood, tile or wall paper the molds have reappeared on and change it entirely. This usually solves the problem of reappearing molds.
