What is Mold Remediation?

Molds are a very common occurrence in every household. They are hazardous as they pose a risk to your health and damage your drywall and ceilings. These fungi replicate fast and produce toxic substances which cause respiratory problems. People with respiratory conditions are at risk if they inhale the mold spores.

To avoid these severe conditions for your household members, you need to use proper methods to eliminate the molds and curb their growth. Drywall repair contractors have skills in dealing with molds regardless of how extensive the spread is. At Eastbay Drywall Repair Service, we are honored to be the best mold remediation company in Milpitas, CA, and the bay area.

Mold Remediation

Mold remediation is the process of getting rid of molds permanently. Unlike cleaning, remediation seeks to find and address the source of the mold and ways to prevent future occurrence of the same. Mold remediation is advised, especially when there is a large spread and the mold is out of control even after cleaning.

Here are steps that any professional mold remediation contractor follows to help solve your mold problem.

Mold inspection

The initial stage in any mold remediation procedure is the general inspection of the entire room from the walls to the ceiling board. Experts can detect mold growth even from areas that you wouldn’t note. Then they determine the type of mold is present and the best procedure to remove them.

Containing molds

After detecting mold presence, the next process is coming up with a containment procedure to prevent the spread. The method varies on how extensive the spread is.

This step looks to work on the molds right from the source.

Air filtration process

Air filters and vacuums are put in the house to clear all the active mold spores. When they are left, they turn to fungi, and mold begins to grow again.

Cleaning molds

Once you have cleared the source and the air is clear of any active spores, you can begin cleaning using your choice reagent. Biocide is the most preferred cleaning agent.

Afterward, clean all the contents in your space in case there were mold spores on surfaces.

Restoration

This process involves performing the necessary repairs on your drywall that result from the mold damage.

Once you realize even the smallest sign of mold growth, address it immediately. But if the molds have grown extensively, contact your remediation company. Call EastBay Drywall Repair at (408) 338-6634 for all your drywall problems in Milpitas.
