First steps

What to Do Before Using Mold Remediation Services in 21638

Avoid disturbing growth, save useful documentation and, if you can do so safely, stop the water.

Call (844) 352-3560
  1. Stop the water safely. Turn the leaking fixture off, or get a repair arranged. Do not approach standing water or any wet electrical equipment.
  2. Limit access. If possible, leave the door closed. Do not let pets or children near visible growth.
  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. Before moving anything, document damaged items, the leak and growth you can see. Ask your insurer what records are necessary.

Health and safety

Understanding Mold Removal Safety for Greater Baltimore Properties

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

Some People Face More Risk

Mold can trigger allergy and asthma symptoms in 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. HEPA filtration with negative air pressure helps restrict movement.

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

Even when surfaces appear dry, moisture may remain in subfloor, framing or insulation. Moisture readings help establish your affected area.

Step by step

How the Mold Remediation Process Works Across Greater Baltimore

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

    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. A HEPA air scrubber is an air filtration device that, with negative air pressure, limits particle movement into clean rooms.

  3. Removal of Damaged Materials

    Workers use protective equipment. Drywall removal is one possible demolition task when damaged porous materials need removal.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    For non-porous surfaces left in place, cleaning uses a HEPA vacuum plus damp wiping. Drying relies on a dehumidifier, air movers and moisture readings.

  5. Final Cleaning and Verification

    Post-remediation verification can involve clearance testing, a visual examination or air sampling, carried out by an independent assessor.
