Services - Mold Remediation
At HealthyAir, we take mold
very seriously. Although the presence of mold itself is not always
a problem, sustained growth of mold inside your home or office
can become a problem. Different molds can
produce a variety of symptoms, reactions, and diseases in different
people, depending on the mycotoxins produced and the individual's
immune system status. For this
reason, you may elect to utilize mold testing to determine the
exact mold(s) within your home or office.
Scope of Remediation
The area of contamination and the extent
of the contamination will be used to determine the scope of
the remediation. Although testing at the beginning of a remediation
process is not mandatory, it is very important to test for
mold after remediation is completed. HealthyAir uses air sampling
due to its reliability in detecting viable (live) and non-viable
(dead) spores. (According to the EPA, dead mold spores are
as allergenic as live spores.)
Type of Remediation
There are several different methods used to
remediate mold. Depending on the type of mold, amount of active
mold colonies, location and general conditions of the area, one
or more of the following methods will be recommended:
Fogging the Affected Area
Removal of
Affected Material
Cleaning the Affected Material
Encapsulation
of Affected Material (After Cleaning)
