LEAK SOURCE CAUSING YOUR MOLD?

This by FAR is going to be the most important protocol that MOST Los Angeles mold remediation companies DONT focus on enough, we get it, mold remediation companies’ job is mold removal, not leak detection.

You as the homeowner have to be very aware that if you don’t identify the leak source properly, this can cost you thousands.

 

Here are the steps you need to do when dealing with mold remediation work in your home: Now you can skip this if you have found the leak and you know 100 percent it’s fixed. Now if it’s a structural leak that caused mold like a window, roof, exterior siding, concrete leaks, stucco leak, concrete footing leak, or rain leak then this is super important and can save you thousands.

 

Case study:

This homeowner spent 16k and never fixed the leak.

This homeowner hired the wrong contractor who made assumptions about where they thought the leak was coming from causing water damage, mold, and damage to wood floors, the rains came and the leak was still present. So the homeowner found us, we conducted leak testing and pinpointed EXACTLY where the leak was coming in, which was a small breach 2 feet above the ground, so the 16k work the contractor performed was completely a waste of money.

Our point is that you should always hire a professional leak detection company line twin home experts to perform leak detection during the mold removal process to ensure that you have found all leak sources causing the mold.

Then the waterproofing and or leak repairs need to be completed, then another leak testing be performed to make sure the waterproofing work has been completed properly, then you can continue the mold remediation process.

You will be so happy and give you peace of mind if you follow these steps.

 

Mold remediation steps:

Once the leak source in your home that caused the mold is solved, it’s now important to follow these steps. Now we’re already assuming, that 99.9 percent of the time mold remediation companies build a critical barrier around the affected room or area before they demo your walls and or ceiling, bag, seal, and haul away debris, then HEPA vacuum cleans the areas.

 

 

#1 – it’s super important to install a dehumidifier for 3 to 7 days to extract ALL moisture from substrates.

#2 – Once this is completed, you want to seal up all gaps using nontoxic expansion foam.

#3 – Perform a hydrogen peroxide IAQ wipe-down of all substrates.

# 4 Then set up a negative air system using a HEPA air scrubber, then discharge a tube and terminate to a window. This will take all particulates and blow them into the outside air.

# 5 – Then perform aggressive fogging using a product like Benefect.
