Due to the ever
increasing concerns of the negative effects of
mold contamination in your indoor environments,
Mold Pros of Ohio
has created a benchmark of excellence in
structural mold remediation in residential and
commercial properties. Once it has been
determined through testing that the mold needs
to be removed, then a remedy or a plan needs
to be created to eliminate the source and result
of mold contamination. This is known as a remediation plan.
Mold Pros of Ohio highly
recommends that PRE-remediation testing is
completed BEFORE any mold removal and
remediation begins. This
PRE-remediation testing obtains a sampling
of the indoor environment through direct
sampling and air quality testing. This
PRE-remediation testing helps to allow
Mold Pros of Ohio
to create a strategy for remediation,
defining the actions needed to be taken
to return the property to a Condition 1
(normal fungal ecology) status.
The importance of
PRE-remediation testing is that once this
assessment has been completed, those
recommendations get applied in the
remediation strategy, utilizing engineering
controls, containment strategies, actual
mold removal, surface treatment (HEPA
vacuuming, sanitizing and encapsulating).
Following the
remediation project, a POST-remediation
verification should then be performed which
will include visual and air quality sampling
methodologies to verify that the structures,
systems and contents have been returned to a
Condition 1 status.
To avoid and eliminate
potential conflicts of interest,
Mold Pros of Ohio
highly recommends that the mold remediation
company and the air quality/sampling testing
company be two unrelated organizations.
In states such as Texas and Florida,
state law prohibit remediation companies
from performing their own testing. The
goal is to receive an unbiased,
scientifically determined report that
reflects the return of the property to a
Condition 1 status or information to cause
the remediation company to return to your
property and complete the mold remediation
so that a Condition 1 status can be
achieved.
Pre-remediation and
Post-remediation testing are critical
barometers to determine the strategies for
remediation and to verify that complete mold
eradication has in fact occurred through the
mold remediation plan.
