Mold removal and remediation is vital following a flood or other water/moisture issue. Moisture-induced growths like mold can damage the infrastructure in almost any type of building. Mold can also pose serious health risks, such as allergies, respiratory distress, neurological issues, and more. That’s why All Dry offers comprehensive mold evaluations, mold removal, and mold remediation services.
Mold grows in damp or humid spaces and can spread to other areas if not addressed. This is especially true after a flood or other indoor water emergency. In fact, growths like mold can begin to develop in as little as 24-48 hours following a water emergency. So it is important to address mold as soon as it is detected – or suspected – in order to prevent it from spreading and causing further damage. This process is commonly known as remediation & it involves identifying, removing, and preventing such indoor growth.
You can learn more about how our team handles mold in the slideshow below.
Remember: Mold grows in damp or humid environments, particularly an indoor water emergency...
...and it only takes around 24-48 hours for mold and other growth to appear and begin spreading to adjacent areas.
Following a visual inspection, our next step is to take careful readings of moisture and temperature conditions in less-obvious potential growth areas...
...such as underneath baseboard trim...
...and even behind walls.
After inspecting the affected area for both growth and excessive moisture, we rapidly dry the area out.
After drying the area as much as possible, we remove affected elements...
...such as drywall...
...and any other any affected details like baseboards, doorway trim, carpeting, and sometimes even ceiling panels.
The process of drying the affected area entirely while removing badly affected structural elements is crucial to minimizing the potential effects and spread of mold.
We then thoroughly clean and disinfect affected structural features that cannot be removed...
...such as wall studs and other framing infrastructure and/or concrete walls and floors.
Lastly, we encapsulate any remaining residue using a specialized topical application.
Our encapsulation coating prevents the return of mold and other growth.
