First steps

Steps to Take Before Mold Remediation Services in 64078

If safe, stop the water; leave growth undisturbed and keep records that may be useful.

Call (844) 352-3560
  1. Stop the water safely. Have a repair arranged or shut the leaky fixture off. Stay away from standing water and wet electrical equipment.
  2. Limit access. When you can, shut the door. Children and pets should stay clear of growth you can see.
  3. Avoid spreading particles. Never scrape or brush mold, or sand mold, without containment. Switch off any HVAC equipment suspected of containing mold.
  4. Photograph the damage. Make a record of visible growth, damaged belongings and the leak before anything is moved. Find out which documentation your insurer requires.

Health and safety

Greater Kansas City Properties: Mold Removal Safety

Containment is important to keep clean rooms from receiving mold spores and dust when affected materials are disturbed.

Some People Face More Risk

Mold may bring on symptoms of allergies and asthma for some people. According to the CDC, higher risk applies to people with asthma, lung disease or weakened immune systems.

Hidden Materials Can Stay Damp

Even when surfaces appear dry, moisture may remain in subfloor, framing or insulation. The affected area is clearer with moisture readings.

Mold Spores Can Spread

Cutting drywall or pulling carpet can release particles. HEPA filtration with negative air pressure helps restrict movement.

Color Does Not Measure Risk

People use black mold and toxic mold as search terms. The CDC says color does not show how risky a mold may be.

What you get

Selecting Your Peculiar Mold Remediation Company

Start With the Moisture Source

Ask how the leak, condensation or humidity problem will be found and corrected.

Ask for a Clear Scope of Work

Look for affected materials, containment, drying, cleanup and repairs in the scope, along with possible reasons for price changes.

Use Independent Clearance Testing

For post-remediation verification, if required, use an independent assessor to avoid a removal company assessing the work it completed.

Step by step

How the Mold Remediation Process Works Across Greater Kansas City

Assessment comes first in these mold remediation steps, then containment, damaged material removal, cleaning, drying, work verification and, last, removal of containment.

  1. Mold Inspection and Moisture Mapping

    A moisture meter and, when useful, a thermal imaging camera help trace the moisture source and affected materials.

  2. Containment and Air Filtration

    A containment barrier is made using poly sheeting. A HEPA air scrubber is an air filtration device that, with negative air pressure, limits particle movement into clean rooms.

  3. Removal of Damaged Materials

    Workers wear protective equipment. Damaged porous materials may require demolition, including drywall removal.

  4. Surface Cleaning and Drying

    Clean remaining non-porous surfaces through damp wiping and use of a HEPA vacuum. Drying relies on a dehumidifier, air movers and moisture readings.

  5. Final Cleaning and Verification

    Post-remediation verification can involve clearance testing, a visual examination or air sampling, carried out by an independent assessor.

Is Cleaning Mold Yourself an Option in Missouri?
