Mold Remediation Services in Lynchburg, Virginia

MOLD REMOVAL AND REMEDIATION SERVICES NEAR YOU

Cascio & Sons works to develop a comprehensive and complete plan for remediation of any mold infestation found inside residential or commercial structures. Every remediation plan is based on the type of mold present inside a building, the infestation's extent, and the materials that contain active mold colonization.

Non-Invasive Remediation

Most interior materials with surface mold growth can be cleaned and decontaminated with processes that do not require taking out and replacing physical structures. The mold growth that is caused by excessive moisture can often be removed with different non-invasive techniques. When coupled with effective moisture control, these professional methods can lead to clean surfaces and air that will test negative for mold and pass environmental assessments.

HEPA Vacuuming

High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) vacuuming equipment is significantly different than standard vacuums. Advanced filtering systems used in our HEPA vacuums capture and remove tiny particles and mold spores from surfaces and the air. Professional HEPA vacuuming removes virtually all particles larger than 0.3 microns.

Wet Washing

Exposed surfaces contaminated with mold can often be cleaned by washing with a professional solution of cleansing agents that will kill and remove mold growth. Professional washing ensures that mold is removed and any residual moisture is completely dried and removed.

Wire Brushing

Some porous or metal surfaces can be professionally cleaned with wire brushes of the correct size and design to remove embedded mold spores. Brushes can be handy for precision cleaning in tight spaces where mold can grow in cracks and inside some surfaces.

Sanding

Intensive non-invasive remediation can include using blasting with sand or grit to break up surface particles and mold growth on more durable construction materials. Professional expertise and equipment are needed when sanding to avoid any structural or surface damage, and clean-up is taken care of with proper HEPA vacuuming.

HEPA Air Filtering

Interior air contaminated with mold spores can be cleaned with HEPA grade professional filtering machines. Thorough HEPA air filtering performed during the remediation process helps get interior air quality back to acceptable levels. This enables household air filtering systems to maintain interior air clean and healthy.

Invasive Remediation

Severe water intrusions can permanently damage building structures and materials, including drywall, wood, and porous materials. Moisture that penetrates building structures can lead to a mold infestation that cannot be removed through non-invasive methods. When flooding, seepage, or leaks cause this moisture damage, it is often necessary to remove damaged structures and reconstruct and remediate damaged areas. This level of remediation is much more involved and expensive than non-invasive remediation.

Biocide Application

Under some particular circumstances, biocides and other types of sanitizers may be needed to remediate mold infestation completely. Cascio & Sons strictly follows written regulations and protocols to ensure that any chemicals used to kill mold infestation are safely and properly applied. Some chemical treatments can be hazardous to human health and the environment, and our use of any biocide or chemical will always comply with best practices.
