Mold and Odor Removal: Water losses not handled in a timely manner and dried down quickly can lead to secondary damage such as microbial growth, as well as cause structural components to lose their integrity, potentially impact indoor air quality, and may ultimately result in compromised occupant health issues to develop. PuroClean’s IICRC certified technicians follow industry best practices to properly remediate mold that has infected and/or damaged and return the property to a pre-loss condition. Once a scope of remediation and repair has been established, they will implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected areas of a building utilizing negative pressure with HEPA air filtration devices. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants by:

• The removal of compromised materials and contents per industry standards.
• A thorough cleaning using HEPA air filter devices and HEPA vacuums.
• A thorough cleaning of all surfaces with cleaning solutions that can include EPA registered disinfectants, followed by another HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces.

A lot of people use bleach to clean mold; however, this is an ineffective approach as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them. PuroClean’s goal is to return your property to a safe and clean condition.

Odors are an indicator that something could still be wet. If something has a musty pungent odor it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC’s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and can cause health related issues. PuroClean’s approach is to follow industry standards to develop the right scope of repair for your business or home, which includes employing specialized equipment, cleaning practices, followed by recommending a clearance test to ensure your property has reached the desired goal.

Water Damage Assessment:

• Our technicians will first conduct a thorough assessment, perform daily inspections and monitoring to develop drying strategies and answer: What’s wet, how wet is it, is it drying, and has it reached its dry standard.
• The assessment helps determine what damaged material may need to be removed due to structural integrity issues, damage not restorable, or contamination. Our goal is to dry all materials such as drywall, wood, carpet and padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, furniture, upholstery, and more, providing they are not contaminated, or structurally compromised according to industry standards.

Pineville, NC Emergency Water Extraction

We start out by strategically locating specially designed water removal equipment in order to quickly rid your property of standing water.

• The first step calls for immediate water removal with our advanced water pumps. Once the water has been extracted, all affected belongings and structures will be removed and stored or discarded.
• The equipment will be removed upon completion and the PuroClean technicians will discard the water at another location.

Drying and Dehumidification

The next step is to identify, isolate and prep all areas that require drying and dehumidification.

1. To ensure this procedure can be completely performed, removal of belongings and upholstery will be necessary.
2. A PuroClean professional will assess the isolated area and choose locations for the powerful air movers. Areas of the home or business that have the most moisture and trapped water are our top concern, to pull out trapped water. Remember, these air movers are quite loud.
3. Following this, the water will be pulled into the air by the air movers, which are specially designed to increase evaporation in the given space and create airflow so dehumidifiers can be most effective. All of the water pulled out will be disposed of by the PuroClean technician in another location.
4. PuroClean technicians will put back any relocated items to where they belong once moisture levels return to normal. Our technicians monitor humidity levels closely during the process of drying to make sure that proper drying is happening.

Final Cleaning Processes

• Our technicians will begin with a complete inspection and dry vacuuming of your carpet.

• Pre-treatments may be required for heavily soiled areas, spots, or pet odors.

Does homeowners insurance cover flooding or water damage? Do you work with insurance companies to minimize the cost and hassle?

Homeowners insurance provides coverage for sudden and accidental damage (such as water heater ruptures or pipe bursts). However, flood damage, no matter the water source, is NOT covered by standard homeowners policies. Also, a standard homeowners insurance policy will not cover water damage that results from a lack of maintenance.
