First steps

Before You Use Mold Remediation Services for a Property in 62266

Avoid disturbing growth, save useful documentation and, if you can do so safely, stop the water.

Call (844) 352-3560
  1. Stop the water safely. Turn the leaking fixture off, or get a repair arranged. Avoid standing water as well as electrical equipment that is wet.
  2. Limit access. Close the door when possible. Children and pets should stay clear of growth you can see.
  3. Avoid spreading particles. Without containment, avoid sanding, scraping or brushing mold. Switch off any HVAC equipment suspected of containing mold.
  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

Safe Mold Removal for Properties in Greater St. Louis

Containment is important to keep clean rooms from receiving mold spores and dust when affected materials are disturbed.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

A dry-looking surface can hide wet framing, insulation or subfloor. Use moisture readings to identify the affected area.

Color Does Not Measure Risk

People use black mold and toxic mold as search terms. According to the CDC, mold color cannot tell you the level of risk.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Pulling up carpet or cutting into drywall may release particles. Negative air pressure and HEPA filtration help limit movement.

Some People Face More Risk

Some people experience allergy or asthma symptoms triggered by mold. According to the CDC, higher risk applies to people with asthma, lung disease or weakened immune systems.

Step by step

Your Mold Remediation Process in Greater St. Louis

These mold remediation steps follow this order: assess the area, contain it, remove damaged material, clean, dry and verify the work, then take containment down.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    Locating the moisture source and affected materials involves a moisture meter, supplemented by a thermal imaging camera when useful.

  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

    Protective equipment is used by workers. You may need drywall removal or demolition of other porous materials damaged by mold.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    A HEPA vacuum and damp wiping clean remaining non-porous surfaces. Air movers, a dehumidifier and moisture readings guide drying.

  5. Final Cleaning and Verification

    Post-remediation verification may include a visual check, clearance testing or air sampling by an independent assessor.

How do companies calculate a mold remediation price?

The starting point is limited to published ranges for the nation. Factors setting the price include materials, the affected area, containment, drying and whatever repair is necessary to stop the moisture source.
