Mold Removal vs Mold Remediation

At Puroclean Newark, we recognize that the terms “mold removal” and “mold remediation” are often used interchangeably, yet they signify different levels of service.

Mold removal is a crucial step that focuses on the elimination of mold from your property, ensuring that allergic reactions or structural damage are halted. However, it’s merely a component of a comprehensive strategy.

Mold remediation, on the other hand, encompasses a full spectrum solution — from thorough inspection and precise mold testing to the proficient removal of mold. More than just addressing the visible issue, remediation includes the critical aspects of humidity control and rectification of the mold’s root cause, ensuring that recurrence is prevented.

Black Mold Removal

When it comes to black mold removal, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. Black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) poses significant health risks if not taken care of. It’s extremely important to have a reputable mold removal company like Puroclean Newark take care of your black mold. Our technicians are experienced in dealing with all types of mold growth.

Our black mold removal process is as follows:

  • Mold Inspection: We will first inspect the type of mold, the affected materials, and the area to form the best plan of attack.
  • Isolation and Containment: Isolate the affected area by sealing it off with plastic sheeting to prevent mold spores from spreading to other parts of the property.
  • Mold Removal: Physically remove the visible mold growth from surfaces.
  • Cleaning and Disinfection: Clean and disinfect the affected area to kill any remaining mold spores and prevent regrowth. Allow the area to dry completely. Use fans and dehumidifiers to speed up the drying process.
  • Inspection and Post-Removal Assessment: After removal and cleaning, inspect the area to ensure all visible mold has been successfully removed. Carefully remove the containment materials, ensuring they do not release mold spores into other areas. Dispose of all contaminated materials, including cleaning supplies, in sealed plastic bags. Monitor the area for any signs of mold regrowth in the coming weeks and address any ongoing moisture issues to prevent mold from returning.

Black mold typically is an underlying sign of something going wrong in your property. We will typically go through our mold remediation process if the extent of the mold is bad, ensuring that the source of the mold infestation is taken care of.

Mold Removal Cost

The expense of mold remediation varies considerably, not only because of the scope and scale of the infestation but also due to specific environmental factors unique to each situation. Averaging between $2.50 to $20 per square foot, the cost is largely influenced by the size and location of the mold, its type, and the level of contamination. At Puroclean Newark, we understand that facing such costs can be daunting. This is why we commit to working diligently with your insurance carrier, advocating for maximum claims coverage by providing thorough documentation and evidence of the mold’s impact on your property.

Our meticulous approach includes presenting crucial readings and detailed assessments to insurance providers, facilitating a seamless claim process. We strive not only to restore your property to its pre-loss condition but also to alleviate the burden of financial strain. To discuss your unique situation and receive a precise estimate, we encourage you to contact our Puroclean Newark experts. Trust in our authoritative knowledge and dedicated service to comprehensively address and resolve your mold issues.

How to get rid of mold?

Performing mold cleanup is more complex than a simple scrub; it demands a substantive understanding of mold remediation protocols to ensure effective and safe removal. Incorrectly handling mold can exacerbate the issue, with spores becoming airborne and colonizing new areas of your home. This is why it is prudent to engage with Puroclean Newark, where experienced professionals can conduct a comprehensive mold inspection and devise a strategic plan to eradicate mold from your premises definitively.

For minor mold occurrences, here are steps you might consider:

  • Safety First: Don protective gear such as an N95 respirator mask, gloves, goggles, and coveralls to guard against mold exposure.
  • Identify and Fix the Source of Moisture: Locate and rectify any moisture issues that contribute to mold growth, such as leaks or high humidity levels.
  • Isolate and Remove Mold: Seal off the contaminated area to prevent spore dissemination and meticulously remove the visible mold and compromised materials.
  • Clean and Disinfect: Employ mold-specific cleaning agents to purify the area, then thoroughly dry to preclude further growth.
  • Prevent Future Growth: Implement measures such as resolving persistent moisture problems and enhancing ventilation to maintain low humidity and deter mold resurgence.

Understanding the specifics of your homeowner’s insurance policy is crucial in determining whether it encompasses mold remediation costs. Typically, your policy will cover the expenses if the mold results from a sudden and unforeseen event—like a burst pipe or a malfunctioning water heater. However, if mold accrues due to deferred maintenance or neglect of the property, you may find yourself responsible for the remediation costs. It’s essential to work with a knowledgeable team like Puroclean Newark, who will diligently assist with navigating your insurance claim, ensuring that you receive the maximum coverage available for your mold removal needs. For a comprehensive assessment and to secure expert restoration services, we encourage you to contact Puroclean Newark.
