Soil-Away's mold remediation services include mold inspections, air sampling, tape lift samples, source containment, mold removal, clean-up and material encapsulation process.
Our Certified Technicians will assess your premises for Microbial Contamination, its extent, and any safety concerns. They will then explain the process for Mold remediation, so you know what to expect while the work is being done.
We follow the procedures set forth by the ANSI/ IICRC(Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification) S520 Standard and Reference Guide for Professional Mold Remediation as well as the RIA, EPA and IAQA Guidelines. These same standards group certify all our Technicians and Supervisors to perform this work.
The process is multi-stepped and may include:
Pre-evaluation: consists of visual inspection and air/surface testing to determine contamination levels.
Source Removal: requires containment of and removal of the microbial contamination or critical by physical and/or chemical means. This could include installing containment barriers, material removal, hand wiping, sanding, or media blasting (soda or dry ice) to assure adequate removal of the contaminant without spreading it to unaffected areas.
Air Scrubbing: uses specialized professional HEPA* filtering and ventilation equipment to remove contaminants from the air and assure they do not spread to unaffected areas during the source removal process.
Post removal Verification: Perform air/surface tests to assure the removal process was complete and meets acceptable standards for habitable facilities.
Encapsulation: This optional step is used to help inhibit any recurrence of the contamination by shielding the food source from any microbial contact thus preventing contaminant growth.
Strict adherence to these standardized procedures assures your premises will be returned to a clean, safe and healthy state as soon as possible.
