Basement Mold Remediation Process
While your local SERVPRO in Guilford, CT creates a unique plan for each new basement mold removal project, the general process still remains the same.
Step 1: Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment
A Project Manager inspects all visible mold in your basement and takes moisture readings to help determine if water damage or a moisture problem is causing the issue, which our team can also address. Here, we determine what steps need to be taken to get rid of mold in your basement in Guilford.
Step 2: Mold Containment
To prevent the spread of mold or mold spores throughout your home during basement mold remediation in Guilford, CT, containment methods are used. This may include creating physical barriers, constructing negative air chambers, and other specialized methods as needed to contain mold to the affected area.
Step 3: Air Filtration
Commercial grade equipment like air scrubbers and HEPA vacuums are used to remove microscopic mold particles out of the air. This not only helps prevent the spread of mold during the removal process, but also helps to ensure mold spores aren't left behind and mold colonies don't reform after work is completed.
Step 4: Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
Depending on the amount of mold growth and the types of surfaces involved, the mold remediation process can vary significantly. In most cases, antifungal and antimicrobial treatments are used to eliminate mold colonies and to help prevent new colonies from forming. Depending on the severity of the infestation, we may need to remove drywall, carpeting, and other porous materials. Non-porous materials like concrete basement walls can be treated rather than removed.
Step 5: Cleaning Contents and Sanitizing
We clean your furniture, decorative items, curtains, clothing, and other restorable items affected by mold, using a variety of cleaning techniques to clean and disinfect your belongings. We’re also trained to remove odors and provide deodorization using fogging equipment.
Step 6: Restoration
Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may have been removed. The restoration step gets your home or business back to normal.
