Attic Mold Removal

“How does attic mold remediation work?” – Rich. Post Falls, ID

When we remove mold from an attic, it is a thorough, diligent and clean process. It involves a number of different steps to ensure that the problem areas are treated to be as clean and safe as possible.

The first step in the remediation process involves quarantining the affected areas, as well as building a critical barrier from the attic access from inside the home. We do this to guarantee that the mold problem is not allowed to spread to other areas of the home.

This process involves the use of a negative air scrubber, which, in many ways, functions as a high-powered, heavy-duty air filter. It safely traps any air particles that contain mold toxins and filters them thoroughly before removing them entirely from the site of contamination.

This process of removing air also creates a vacuum effect which reduces the risk of mold particles finding their way into other parts of the home.

In the second step of the remediation process, we remove everything from the attic that has been contaminated by mold. Depending on the severity of the particular case, it may be necessary to remove flooring, walls, insulation and any personal belongings that have been stored near the contamination site.

During this process, The Twins take the utmost care to seal and dispose of all affected objects in a way that keeps the contamination safely at bay.

Once the removal phase is complete, we begin the cleaning process, where we apply our rapid mold wood removing agent.

After the cleaning job is complete, we frequently keep our equipment at the work site for up to 72 hours depending on how much contamination there was.

Once we return to pick up equipment, we then perform a swab test and send it off to a third party accredited mold laboratory. If the results return, then we must retreat – at no additional cost of course, that’s our guarantee.

“Why is Mold Remediation Important?” – Larry. Athol, ID

Mold is a type of fungus that reproduces via tiny spores released into the air. When these spores are inhaled by humans, they can cause an allergic reaction in the immune system.

This reaction we see frequently are the following symptoms:

• Sneezing
• Nasal congestion
• Itchiness in the eyes
• Skin rashes

Stop all moisture sources, this is the key. We also believe in encapsulating all exposed wood framing. We are certified in a 10-year warranted mold inhibitor, that comes in either white or clear. This is very effective way to prevent mold from coming back, as it shuts down any food source for mold to feed on and actively grow.
