Mold Remediation

Mold can colonize damp building materials surprisingly fast, and once established, it releases airborne spores that may affect indoor air quality and the health of occupants. Claremont Water Damage Restoration follows IICRC S520 remediation protocols to safely address mold in wall cavities, attics, crawl spaces, bathrooms, and any other area where persistent moisture has created conditions for fungal growth. We begin every project with a detailed visual inspection and moisture assessment to locate the source of the problem before remediation begins.

Proper containment is critical to preventing cross-contamination during mold removal. Our technicians erect negative-air-pressure containment chambers using heavy-mil poly sheeting and run HEPA-filtered air scrubbers to capture airborne spores within the work zone. Affected porous materials such as drywall, insulation, and wood framing are carefully removed and disposed of according to applicable guidelines, while non-porous surfaces are treated with EPA-registered antimicrobial agents and physically cleaned to IICRC standards.

After remediation is complete, we address the underlying moisture intrusion — whether it's a plumbing leak, inadequate ventilation, or water vapor migration — so the conditions that allowed mold to grow are eliminated. We provide a detailed scope-of-work report and can coordinate post-remediation verification testing through a third-party industrial hygienist upon request, giving you independent confirmation that your indoor environment is safe.
