Mold remediation is necessary when mold causes significant damage to your home. If left untreated, mold can spread quickly, creating visible damage to your walls, ceilings, and floors. Mold can also compromise your health, causing respiratory infections and allergic reactions. When mold spores come into contact with moisture, they grow and multiply.
One of the most common places for mold to develop is in the bathroom, thanks to the high humidity levels. Take action immediately if you notice mold in your bathroom. It may be a good idea to call a property restoration company, such as PuroClean, that can perform mold remediation promptly and efficiently.
The Background
Recently, PuroClean was called to a vacant home occupied by tenants who left behind extensive damage. They didn’t notify the owner that some wall tiles in the shower had been removed and taped plastic to obscure the hole. Unfortunately, the moisture created in the shower led to a mold issue in the bedroom.
The Start of Mold Remediation
Our experienced PuroClean team arrived promptly at the property in Valrico, Florida, to assess the situation. We used our state-of-the-art moisture meters on the walls in the affected areas and discovered moisture still present. As a result, we commenced the mold remediation process right away.
Mold remediation requires detailed precision to ensure its removal is done safely and thoroughly. Our technicians formed a containment over the bathroom door and air conditioner vents to prevent potential mold spread. Then, we began the task of eliminating the wet and moldy materials. To err on the side of caution, we removed the tub in case that had any underlying mold.
After finishing the demolition, our team cleaned and treated all the items within the containment area using a professional-grade antimicrobial solution. We encapsulated the bathroom door’s wood framing with antimicrobial paint. To ensure we didn’t miss any mold spores, we had a post-remediation verification test conducted.
After a week of intense remediation, the home was back to its pre-loss condition and completely mold-free. Thanks to our crew’s diligent work, our client had a happy finale to his overwhelming situation.
