What is post-mold remediation verification?  

Post-mold verification testing is an actual mold test performed by a company on a property to see if the process of mold remediation has been conducted successfully or not. In this process, certified mold inspectors ensure that there are no traces of mold left inside a property.

In Florida, a company that has performed mold remediation on a property cannot perform post-remediation verification testing itself, and it has to be done by another unbiased company.

 

Mold issues can be nothing less than a nightmare. The main issue of mold infestation does not end at the remediation stage. Post-mold remediation verification is crucial. It is essential to check for the effectiveness of the entire remediation treatment and post-mold remediation testing. This 5-minute read will help you understand the significance of post-mold remediation and potential ways to keep yourself mold-free.

Importance of Post-Remediation Testing

Mold grows in hot, humid, and damp environments where it thrives effectively. Even after professional mold removal, mold spores sometimes linger in the air around us, causing serious health and property damage issues. The process involves testing the location, air sampling, surface sampling, visual analysis, and laboratory analysis. This test is used as a reaffirmation that the property is devoid of any mold damage.

Why is post-mold remediation the need of the hour?

  • Mold propagates in the air around us in the form of small microscopic spores. These tiny spores linger in the air around us, and it becomes impossible to see them. A post-remediation plan can ensure complete eradication.
  • It is also needed for the safety of your health. Mold can cause serious health difficulties like respiratory issues, allergies, asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, and triggering asthma.
  • Mold can also cause significant damage to the worth of your property. Therefore, it is better to keep a check on the mold growth and prevent the damage to property
  • Most insurance companies and real estate agents call for mold remediation and post-remediation reports for the safety of the property.

We offer a comprehensive plan of action post-remediation to ensure that you get complete protection from mold growth. Here is a step-wise process of how post-mold remediation works:

  1. Testing the locations under observation: Our team of expert microbiologists will visit your property and strategically select the areas for observation. We use various factors like the extent of contamination, mold damage, its type, and areas prone to dampness.
  2. Air Sampling: Mold travels and grows in the form of tiny spores. These spores spread out in the air around us, and it is crucial to check for mold spores in the air. Thus, air quality sampling is a standard tool to check for mold spread in the air and find reasonable solutions.
  3. Surface Sampling: This method calls for the collection of mold traces on the surface of the objects. It is usually an effective method as it indicates the details about molds, their type, and damage. Standard sampling techniques include swabs, tape lifts, or contact plates that are conducted under expert advice in our laboratories.
  4. Visual Inspection: When the mold is visible, visual inspection is also helpful. Our experts will look around the area and find the signs of visible mold growth to remove it and get it inspected under advanced technology equipment.
  5. Laboratory Analysis: With a team of experts, we have the best laboratories in the area. We collect the mold samples and run the tests under high-precision equipment to evaluate the mold spore levels and find the type of mold. This process helps us find the correct remediation efforts and solutions accordingly.
  6. Interpretation of Results: Our team ensures you have the complete results documented and framed in the form of a post-remediation plan. We make sure your implementation plan is put into action and customized according to your property.
