    The Mold Remediation Process Explained

    The Mold Remediation Process Explained

    Discovering mold in your home is alarming, but professional remediation is a highly structured and effective process. Here is what you can expect when you hire Restoration 1.

    1. Inspection and Damage Assessment

    We start with a thorough inspection using advanced moisture detection equipment to locate the source of the moisture and the full extent of the mold growth.

    2. Containment

    To prevent mold spores from spreading during the cleanup, we isolate the affected area using physical barriers and negative air pressure systems.

    3. Air Filtration

    High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuums and air scrubbers run continuously to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air.

    4. Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials

    Porous materials like drywall or carpeting that are heavily infested may need to be removed. Non-porous surfaces are treated with specialized antimicrobial agents.

    5. Cleaning and Restoration

    We clean your salvageable belongings and ensure the area is completely dry before beginning any necessary reconstruction to return your home to its pre-loss condition.
