Any Kutztown Home Can Have a Mold Problem – Know What to Look for in a Professional Mold Removal Business

You cannot escape mold spores. They surround us every day, traveling through the air, hitching a ride on your clothes, and spreading through HVAC systems. When you add moisture and high humidity into the mix, you have a problem. When considering mold remediation in Kutztown, there are some things you should look for before hiring a particular company.

What Are the Qualifications of a Good Mold Remediation Specialist?

Mold removal companies in Kutztown should have the correct certification needed for dealing with mold. SERVRPRO’s technicians are trained as Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians (AMRT) and are Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) certified. They should also have any local licensing required for mold removal.

Understanding the Process

The company you hire should be able to explain to you the mold removal process clearly. If they make it confusing or try to use scare tactics involving mold, move on to another restoration business. Professional mold removal involves:

  • Containment – Includes physical barriers and negative airflow.
  • Moisture removal – Mold remediation cannot begin until the water problem is addressed.
  • Professional equipment – HEPA products and commercial equipment should be used.
  • Air Purification – Cleaning the spores from the air is vital.
  • Antimicrobial Cleaners – Any affected surface gets treated with this and antifungals.
  • Proper Disposal – Irreparable items such as drywall needs to be disposed of correctly.
  • Sealants or Encapsulants – Prevents mold from reoccurring.
