5 Mold Removal Methods

Entrust your home or business to Idaho’s leading team of mold remediation experts. At Disaster Kleenup, we are dedicated to staying at the forefront of the industry by continually investing in cutting-edge disaster cleanup technology, specialized training, and advanced equipment. Our expertise allows us to efficiently restore any residential or commercial property affected by mold damage. To ensure your safety and speed up recovery, we utilize the following advanced methods to remove mold:

Mold Damage Repair

Our goal after completing mold remediation services is to return your property to its pre-loss condition. To learn more about residential mold problems and preventing mold in your home, refer to this publication by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Mold Containment

Mold spores growing in one area of a commercial facility can “travel” to other parts of the building through the ventilation system. It’s essential to contain the mold growth at the source and prevent it from spreading before the removal process begins.

Spore Filtration

We use engineering controls that utilize “negative pressure” technologies and air filtration to further prevent air-borne mold from spreading. It’s a highly effective step that helps to guarantee that mold spores are contained until they are eliminated.

Mold Damage Remediation

Once containment has been successfully achieved, we proceed with mold removal. If mold exists within and behind walls or ceilings or under flooring, it may be necessary to remove problem areas altogether: drywall, carpeting, ceiling tiles, roofing, etc.

Mold Assessment

It is critical to assess the severity of the problem before beginning mold remediation. Our DK experts will check surface areas and every nook and cranny where mold growth can hide. It is not unusual for us to find it thriving in unseen areas.

Water Damage

IS WATER REMOVAL COVERED BY MY INSURANCE?

Insurance coverage depends entirely on your insurance policy. If your basement flooding is caused by a flooded toilet or broken pipe then the answer will most likely be yes. If the flooding is caused by rainfall, you may need a flood restoration policy. Your insurance company can provide you with a definitive answer.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO DRY?

Depending on a variety of conditions, most properties take an average of 3-5 days to completely dry. Continuous operation of professional drying equipment along with monitoring and adjustments made by a Disaster Kleenup team member will ensure the quickest drying outcome for your space.

HOW DO YOU MONITOR THE DRYING?

Our certified mitigation technicians will take moisture readings to determine moisture levels in the affected areas. Throughout the drying process, a representative from Disaster Kleenup will schedule periodic checks so they can monitor moisture readings and adjust equipment to accelerate drying.

IS IT SAFE TO STAY ON-SITE DURING THE DRYING PROCESS?

Noise and wind velocity created by air movers are sometimes bothersome. However, it is safe to stay on-site unless instructed otherwise by your insurance company, your Disaster Kleenup representative, or your physician if you have unique medical circumstances. When in doubt, call us for advice.

WHY IS THERE A STRANGE ODOR?

Even if the source of water that caused your flood is fresh, many property owners notice a strange smell following water damage. What you smell is bacterial off-gassing odor from building materials, furniture, dormant spills or possible pet accident areas. Most odors dissipate as the humidity drops back to normal levels. Additionally, we apply antimicrobial treatments to reduce bacterial growth and eliminate odors.

Fire Damage

WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER A FIRE?

Contact your insurance company.
Document everything for insurance reimbursement and tax purposes.
Hire a contractor to board-up and secure your property if there are exposed doors/windows/openings.
When possible, gather critical and high value items to take with you.

WHAT SHOULDN'T I DO AFTER A FIRE?

Enter the premises unless deemed safe by Fire Authority’s.
Attempt to turn on utilities yourself.
Consume food, beverages, and medicine that have been exposed to heat, smoke, and soot.

Mold Remediation

WHAT IS MOLD?

Mold is a microscopic organism that grows on plant or animal matter. It serves the important environmental function of breaking down dead material and recycling nutrients. To reproduce, mold produces spores that can spread through insects, air, or water. Under the right conditions, the spores feed on moist textiles and materials, multiplying and spreading.

IS MY HOME PRONE TO MOLD?

Virtually any home is prone to mold. All it needs to grow is sufficient moisture and organic material. Mold often grows when humidity, condensation, or a water leak comes into contact with drywall, carpet padding, or tile.

WHAT SYMPTOMS INDICATE MOLD EXPOSURE?

The symptoms of mold exposure are similar to seasonal allergy symptoms. Headache, skin irritation, throat irritation, cough, respiratory problems, nasal and sinus congestion, and eye irritation are very common symptoms of mold exposure. Individuals with a respiratory illness or compromised immune system are at a high risk for health problems from mold exposure.

CAN I BECOME SICK FROM MOLD?

Some individuals will become sick from exposure to mold. Symptoms are very similar to the flu, and often, challenging to diagnose. If you feel you are experiencing adverse health conditions as a result of mold exposure, contact your primary care physician, or a certified medical practitioner that specializes in biotoxin exposure, such as the specialists at One Wellness.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE A MOLD PROBLEM EXPOSURE?

If you notice a furry, slimy, or discolored patch in the home, or detect a musty odor, you might have mold growth. Mold commonly grows in window moldings, shower curtains, air conditioners, bathroom tiles, and areas prone to water.

HOW DOES MOLD REMOVAL WORK?

We recommend professional mold cleanup for any amount of mold growth, slight or excessive. The earlier you catch it and take action, the quicker the restoration. Mold cleanup involves identifying and correcting the source of the water, discarding affected materials, and cleaning the area with industry-standard, antimicrobial disinfectants.

WHO IS ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENT?

The property owner is responsible for payment. If you have filed an insurance claim, DK will collect your deductible at the time of service. The day following your loss, you can expect a call from our manager of new accounts, making sure we have all the information to quickly and accurately submit your claim and set up your account. Your DK estimator will take care of working with your insurance company, ensuring the claims handling process runs as smoothly as possible.

Sometimes mold can hide in covered areas that you may not notice, like behind appliances, wallpaper, or under flooring. If you have concerns that mold is lurking in your hidden corners, call DK. We have more than 50 years of mold remediation experience. We’ll even come to your home and evaluate the area at no cost to you.
