After water damage disasters, be aware that your home will be exposed to mold growth. To eliminate it, our service provides all the necessary assistance through a comprehensive treatment of vulnerable surfaces using appropriate equipment.
Mold Detection
When cleaning work begins, we detect mold to implement suitable removal methods. Mold presence is often identified by odors and moisture stains. We can also detect it by collecting samples and analyzing them in our laboratories. Once the mold growth level is determined, we apply an appropriate method to combat it.
Precautions for Better Work
To ensure safe intervention, our staff works fully protected. They wear gowns covering their entire body, masks to protect their breathing in the affected area, as well as gloves and safety boots to perform their work effectively and safely.
Surface Treatment
Treatment differs depending on whether we are working on furniture or walls. On furniture, we proceed cautiously to avoid spreading contaminants onto unaffected structures, using damp cloths since dry cloths can spread dust during cleaning. For walls, treatment depends on the level of moisture that caused mold growth.
Use of a Suitable Chemical Mixture
Several elements help eliminate mold. We use ethyl alcohol and a solvent to remove mold. Borax powder is added to the mixture to reduce mold proliferation and help detach it from surfaces. This mixture is sprayed on the surfaces to ensure effective treatment. We then scrub the treated surfaces until the mold is completely removed.
Special Treatment of Damaged Items
One advantage of calling our post-disaster service is the care we provide for your belongings. You won’t lose them due to mold caused by flooding. Using drastic techniques like freezing, we eradicate all mold elements on furniture and documents. We also expose mold to liquid biocides or strong ethylene oxide fumigation—operations that thoroughly destroy mold.
Surface Preservation
This involves controlling moisture after treatment. We ensure proper ventilation renewal and airing of the house. When repainting the building after the disaster, we add waterproofing products that effectively address ventilation and heating failures.
