Mold Remediation—Safe, effective, no-chemical approach

We own a huge inventory of restorative drying equipment and tools manufactured by Dri-Eaz Products, Inc. —a leader in the industry known for using the most innovative and advanced technology.

Airmovers: provides static pressure/air movement; basically, “kicks up” excess moisture.

Dehumidifiers, refrigerant: speeds up drying process by “removing” the moisture kicked up by the airmovers; we also have LGR (low-grain) refrigerant dehumidifiers that truly dehumidifying up to a whole new level. We have various models that removal between 16.5 to 30 gallons of water a day.

Dehumidifiers, dessicant: This newest “mean machine”, the AQS-1200 Dessicant Dehumidifier (from Air Quest Systems) is ideal for large drying jobs and has the ability to remove 52 gallons of water a day.

TurboVent and Interair Drying Systems (w/negative-air function): for drying of walls, ceilings, and hard-to-reach places.

Air Scrubber / negative air machines: removes potentially harmful particulates in an indoor environment or contained work area during remediation; negative air, along with the proper containment, is crucial during mold remediation.

Moisture Sensors: detects moisture, particularly in carpets/padding.

Penetrating and Non-Penetrating Moisture Meters/Probes: provides readings of moisture content, particularly of walls, ceilings, flooring, concrete, cinderblock, etc.

Digital Thermo-Hygrometers: reads and logs temperature and relative humidity, and helps to aid in formulating an efficient and proper drying program.

Antimicrobials/Biocides : EPA-approved chemical agents to inhibit or kill existing microbes (naturally, our technicians always identify and address the issue of existing chemical sensitivity and potential allergic response prior to application).

Needless to say, each and every restoration/remediation situation is different; no two are alike. By using a combination of high-tech restorative drying equipment, psychrometry, “creative” and common-sense tactics, and dictated by conscientiousness, we use the art and science of restorative drying to great advantage. In effect, each job is done efficiently and thoroughly, which helps to keep costs down all around for our customers.

Our service vans are always fully equipped and ready to respond to flood calls
Just because you can't see or feel it's wet, doesn't mean it's not! (wood bed frame with particleboard; our technicians removed the mattress and box spring to investigate areas of possible water migration).	Obvious water damage behind toe-kicks under kitchen cabinet (one of most commons areas water would migrate in a home, but not many attempt to remove toe-kicks to investigate)
Mold growth inside a wall cavity 72 hours day after a sewage flood that didn't receive the attention it required. Eeeewwww!	Mold growth 60 days after an unattended water loss
Extensive mold growth in bathroom drywall cavity; photo taken during mold remediation. Yuck!
Containment . . . for mold remediation, to prevent contamination of unaffected areas of a dwelling . . .	and for restorative drying jobs that present unique challenges.
