What Is Mold Containment?

2/15/2018 (Permalink)

Have you been struggling with outbreaks of mold in New Orleans, LA? If the infestation is more than surface deep, you need professional mold cleanup services. Mold contamination often goes much deeper than you can detect, and mold spores of an active colony spread rapidly. 

Professional Remediation 

A company specializing in mold cleanup follows approved processes to get rid of your mold problem:

• Thorough inspection of the property
• Mold containment 
• HEPA filters 
• Removal of contaminated materials
• Cleanup and sanitization of the area
• Restoration work

One of the most critical and overlooked steps in the remediation process is the containment phase.

The Importance of Containment

Mold spores are microscopic, and just the slightest breeze sends them floating away. It’s impossible to stop them all, but containment procedures greatly reduce the spread.

Mold cleanup activities kick up a lot of dust. Without containment, mold spores thrown into the air settle in new areas and form new colonies. Mold can take hold and spread roots in as little as 24 hours.
