Mold Removal and Remediation Company in Long Beach

Many homes and businesses in Long Beach experience severe mold infestations, particularly after serious water damage. But, there are other reasons as well that can lead to mold growth on your property in Long Beach. It can be due to a leaking roof, condensation on metal pipes, poor ventilation, accumulated water around appliances or ducts, or dampness in the basement, attic, or crawlspace.

Mold growth is spurred by environmental conditions such as high humidity and optimal temperature. In areas hidden from plain sight, mold growth can go undetected for months and turn into an infestation. Therefore, you must get a suspected mold problem inspected by professionals.

Before you know, mold can turn into a serious health hazard for your family members or workers. Some molds aren’t dangerous to humans or pets at all but many certainly are.

Common types of harmful molds that may be lurking in your home or business premises in Long Beach include Stachybotrys (black mold), Chaetomium, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Alternaria.

Without a certified mold inspector visually checking your property for mold growth and running standard mold tests, you can’t know which molds are growing on your property.  

Mold can also damage porous materials including fabrics, carpets, flooring, baseboards, drywall, artwork, etc., beyond repair.

For all above-mentioned reasons, immediate mold removal is the best step forward when you notice the musty smell emanating from a hidden, damp area or when your family members or workers experience symptoms such as coughing or wheezing, running nose, skin/eye irritation, etc.

Before you plan cleanup, removal, and disposal of your mold issue, it is advisable to have the problem investigated by a licensed mold inspector in Long Beach.

Mold inspection focuses on the identification of moisture sources that cause mold issues. It includes a full assessment of the suspect areas in your property in Long Beach. So, don’t be surprised if it requires access to your crawlspace, attic, basement, roof, etc.

A mold inspector will also take moisture readings of materials such as carpets, baseboards, etc. that appear conducive to mold growth.

Lastly, mold tests with a swab sample and an air sample are conducted.

Mold removal and remediation in Long Beach is the process of removing an existing infestation and clean-up and sanitization of the area to prevent additional mold growth.

Mold remediation begins by containment of the target area with plastic sheets. Air scrubbers or filtration devices are deployed to create negative air pressure in the target area such as your kitchen or bathroom to make sure mold spores don’t spread to other areas of the building.

Infected (moldy) materials are removed by our trained professionals who wear protective clothing and masks. All contaminated materials are packed in thick plastic bags and disposed of safely.

After having removed porous materials from a surface, whether on your roof, crawlspace, or baseboards, it is properly disinfected with biocide, moldicide, or fungicide.

In some cases, mold cannot be removed completely from a surface. On such occasions, the target area is encapsulated with mildew resistant paint to prevent future mold growth.

Finally, the mold source (e.g. a roof leak) is fixed.

The mold remediation process in Long Beach takes 1 to 4 days depending upon factors such as:

• The location of the mold
• How serious the mold problem is
• Whether any repairs or material replacements are required for effective remediation
• The drive time
