Mold Remediation FAQ

What is mold remediation?

Mold remediation is the process of removal and/or cleaning of mold from an indoor environment, such as a home or a business.

If a home or a business has serious mold damage, it is best to hire mold remediation/removal professionals as specialized equipment and methods may be required to remediate the mold completely.

What makes mold grow?

Mold enters your home as tiny spores. The spores need moisture to begin growing, digesting, and destroying. Molds can grow on almost any surface including wood, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, paint, carpet, drywall, and insulation (certain kinds).

The mold grows best when there is moisture from a leak, elevated humidity, or water damage. The best defense for mold is by controlling the moisture in your home or business.

How does mold grow?

Mold requires nutrients, water, oxygen and favorable temperatures to grow. Nutrients for mold are present in dead organic material such as wood, paper or fabrics; mold can also derive nutrients from some synthetic products such as paints and adhesives.

How long does the mold removal process take?

There are many factors that determine how long the process will be such as how much mold is present, where the mold is growing (behind walls, etc.), and the materials it grows on.

How do I know when professional mold removal is complete?

Third-party testing is usually the best way to test for complete mold removal verification.

Duraclean as the mold remediation company should not perform the test as this is a conflict of interest. Please be aware that there are different kinds of testers ranging from home inspectors to industrial hygienists. Duraclean is more than happy to recommend reputable Indoor Environment Professionals (IEP).
