MOLD DAMAGE RESTORATION

MOLD-OUT Damage Restoration Standard in 7 Steps

1. Initial Inspection

Certified technicians thoroughly inspect each facet of the home, carefully noting any area of concern as it relates to existing mold, water intrusion, open windows, visible leaks, foundation cracks, sump pump failure, and excess moisture. In the event existing mold is discovered, a detailed proposal for mold remediation including full protocol is submitted for approval.

2. Containment of Affected Area

Set up complete isolation of the work area from occupied spaces using plastic (6 mil poly) sheeting sealed with duct tape. Ventilation ducts, vents, returns, and other openings are also sealed off. HEPA air scrubbers are used to generate negative air pressure to prevent cross contamination of adjacent areas. These HEPA air scrubbers run throughout the remediation process to eradicate any airborne mold.

3. Mold Remediation Process

All contaminated materials are treated using Benefect® is the only EPA-registered Botanical Disinfectant. It is proven to kill as well as synthetic disinfectants at over 99.99% of common bacteria, fungi, TB, staph (including MRSA) & HIV, yet it is the ONLY disinfectant without warnings or precautionary statements on the label to worry about! No Personal Protective Equipment is required either, making Benefect disinfectant the safest choice on the market. Any dark mold staining will be treated with Fiberlock IAQ 2000 is a phosphate-free, quaternary ammonium chloride formulation designed for use in a diverse assortment of buildings, both residential and commercial.

Fiberlock IAQ 2000 is a concentrated formula that will disinfect hard, nonporous inanimate environmental surfaces. Use IAQ 2000 to clean and disinfect mold-contaminated surfaces as part of all mold-remediation projects. Fiberlock IAQ 2000 is an EPA-registered product.

4. Removal of Damaged Material

Any contaminated material that cannot be remediated will be removed and discarded (drywall, carpeting, padding, cabinetry, etc.). Loose material (insulation, dirt, debris, etc) is removed in sealed plastic bags and discarded.

5. Detailed HEPA Vacuum

Entire worksite is swept free of debris and HEPA vacuumed. Meticulous HEPA vacuuming is essential to the proper application of Fiberlock IAQ 2000 . Mold-Out's technicians are trained to search for areas where debris and other minor particles would otherwise go unnoticed. The use of HEPA vacuums minimizes the transference of collected particles. Special attention is given to all exterior wall cavities under any opening where water intrusion could occur.

6. Applying Fungicidal Protective Coating

Foster 40-20 Fungicidal Protective Coating, EPA registered anti-microbial is applied to all affected areas. Foster 40-20 Fungicidal Protective Coating is the industry's leading EPA registered, antimicrobial coating for HVAC duct systems with ten years of proven effectiveness. It is formulated to effectively prevent the spread of mold and odor causing bacteria on its surface in areas, such as walls, ceilings, pipes and interior/exterior surfaces of HVAC duct systems.This product is a polyacrylate copolymer emulsion specifically formulated for long-term fungicidal activity, with no loss of activity on aging. Its tough, elastic, decorative finish is resistant to most industrial chemicals and it is ultra-flexible to allow for movement without splitting, which prevents lodging places for bacteria - making it ideal in industrial and institutional settings.

7. Final Inspection

A thorough post mold remediation inspection is conducted to ensure quality of the wok done.
