First steps

Before You Use Mold Remediation Services for a Property in 62023

Stop the water if it is safe, avoid disturbing growth and preserve useful records.

Call (844) 352-3560
  1. Stop the water safely. Have a repair arranged or shut the leaky fixture off. Do not approach standing water or any wet electrical equipment.
  2. Limit access. Keep the door shut if possible. Do not let pets or children near visible growth.
  3. Avoid spreading particles. Never scrape or brush mold, or sand mold, without containment. If HVAC equipment might contain mold, shut the equipment off.
  4. Photograph the damage. Make a record of visible growth, damaged belongings and the leak before anything is moved. Ask your insurer what records are necessary.

Health and safety

Greater St. Louis Properties: Mold Removal Safety

Disturbing affected materials can send dust and mold spores into clean rooms, making containment important.

Color Does Not Measure Risk

Toxic mold and black mold are terms used in searches. You cannot judge mold risk by color, the CDC says.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

Even when surfaces appear dry, moisture may remain in subfloor, framing or insulation. Moisture readings help define the affected area.

Some People Face More Risk

Mold may bring on symptoms of allergies and asthma for some people. Risk is higher for people whose immune systems are weak or who have asthma or lung disease, the CDC says.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Pulling up carpet or cutting into drywall may release particles. HEPA filtration with negative air pressure helps restrict movement.

What you get

What to Look for in an Eagarville Mold Remediation Company

Use Independent Clearance Testing

For post-remediation verification, if required, use an independent assessor to avoid a removal company assessing the work it completed.

Request a Clearly Defined Scope of Work

Your scope should spell out repairs, cleanup and drying, identify affected materials and containment, and list what could alter the price.

Start With the Moisture Source

Ask how the leak, condensation or humidity problem will be found and corrected.

Step by step

Your Mold Remediation Process in Greater St. Louis

Assessment comes first in these mold remediation steps, then containment, damaged material removal, cleaning, drying, work verification and, last, removal of containment.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    To trace affected materials and the moisture source, use a moisture meter and, where helpful, a thermal imaging camera.

  2. Containment and Air Filtration

    Use poly sheeting to create a containment barrier. Negative air pressure and a HEPA air scrubber, an air filtration device, limit particles moving into clean rooms.

  3. Removal of Damaged Materials

    Workers use protective equipment. Damaged porous materials may require demolition, including drywall removal.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    Remaining non-porous surfaces are cleaned using damp wiping along with a HEPA vacuum. Use moisture readings, a dehumidifier and air movers to guide drying.

  5. Final Cleaning and Verification

    Post-remediation verification can involve clearance testing, a visual examination or air sampling, carried out by an independent assessor.

How is the mold remediation price set?

National ranges from published sources serve only as an initial guide. The price depends on the affected area, materials, containment, drying and the repair needed to stop the moisture source.

Cleanup planning can begin after the water source is found. The remediation scope, containment requirements and access to the property guide what happens next.
