Mold Remediation Spokane WA

At Mold Remediation Spokane WA, we realize there is a lot of conflicting information out there about mold. In addition to providing the services our local customers need, we also try to dispel as many of these mold myths as possible. 
Here are a few we’ve heard over the years:  

• Your home should be mold-free. Mold is a natural substance, so completely removing it isn’t actually possible. You’ll hear people – even companies – use the terms interchangeably, though. As long as your home has a low level of mold, it will be well within average ranges. 

 

• Mold can’t hurt you. Just because something is found in nature doesn’t necessarily mean you want it in your home. No, a little mold probably won’t bother you, to be honest. But for those with existing respiratory issues can be affected by much less than people without those conditions. And you certainly don’t want to ignore mold and let it grow unchecked! 

 

• You can kill mold with bleach. While true in some instances, this is a broad statement that certainly does NOT hold true in many other cases. The type of mold and the surface that it is on dictate which cleaners should be used. 

As a full service mold specialist, we can provide home inspections as well as mold remediation if needed. A home inspection consists of a visual tour as well as mold testing that can detect mold growth before it is visible, and it can help us determine what type of mold we’re dealing with so that it is easier to remove. 
Effective mold removal in Spokane WA isn’t hard to find as long as you know who to call. Trust the company that so many others already have: Mold Remediation Spokane WA!   

Mold Remediation

Each case of mold infestation is different. A homeowner may be able to determine very quickly that they have a mold problem but be at a complete loss as to what should happen next. That’s where we are able to take over with complete professional services. 

• An inspection is almost always required before service, even though you may be able to plainly see mold on your wall, floor, or ceiling. The purpose is to help us determine the severity of the mold growth, if any is hidden in an unseen area, and what type of mold it is. Then, the cleanup begins. 

 

• We first set up the cleaning area in order to contain the mold spores that are released during removal. This includes the use of barriers and negative air pressure systems that collect mold as it is released. 

 

• HEPA vacuums and other filtration equipment allow us to remove the tiniest particles. Depending on how much mold is present, our mold remediation services will vary from one job to the next. The remediation process also may require the use of antifungal treatments where mold is the worst in order to prevent regrowth. 

Cleaning and deodorizing household items like curtains and furniture is usually possible. In some cases, though, porous materials like carpet and drywall must be removed and done away with. ​

Mold Removal

Mold is everywhere, so, as we discussed earlier, it’s simply not possible to remove every trace of it. Mold in attic is one of the most common mold problems we treat every day! When we speak of mold removal Spokane WA homeowners can trust, we are referring to the process that restores normal, low levels of mold within their homes. 
Understanding the biology behind mold growth is the key to successful mold remediation. No one knows that better than we do, and we put our knowledge to work for our customers. 
Mold remediation in Spokane is best left to the pros because we possess this knowledge, and, in addition, we have state-of-the-art equipment that allows us to remove mold from interior areas without putting homeowners, their families, or our employees at risk. 

Mold Inspection

Mold spores are microscopic, so they can’t be observed without a microscope. And, as you now know, there are definitely mold spores within your home. The problem occurs when mold gets out of balance and begins to grow unchecked. 
The perfect conditions for mold growth include the following: 

• Dark
• Warm
• Moist

In addition, mold needs something to feed on, oxygen, and time to grow. 
If your home has given mold spores these prime conditions, even for a short period, you need to conduct a mold inspection. 
An inspection isn’t really necessary to determine whether or not mold is present in most cases. Once it begins to spread, the colony will be visible to the naked eye. However, our team may need to conduct an inspection to find mold in areas you can’t see, like your air vents, attic, or behind the walls.

Mold Testing

Mold testing is an assessment in which we determine the severity of your mold problem and find out what kind of mold it is so that we can treat it accordingly. 
We’ll conduct your mold testing in several areas of your home to get an accurate picture of what’s going on in your home. In many situations, we’ll use all three of the testing methods available to us: 

• Air test
• Surface test
• Bulk test

Each test gives us different information, and using the correct test – or combination of tests – can help us remove mold more effectively.
