Understanding the Risks of Mold and Why Removal Matters


Mold isn’t just an eyesore—it’s a serious health and property concern. In humid or water-damaged environments, mold can begin growing in as little as 24 to 48 hours. For homeowners and business owners in Boulder, this risk is heightened by seasonal moisture and common flooding events. When left unchecked, mold spreads quickly through walls, ceilings, and ventilation systems, compromising indoor air quality and putting building occupants at risk.

Exposure to mold can cause respiratory problems, allergic reactions, and even long-term health issues for those with compromised immune systems. Beyond the health impact, mold can degrade wood, drywall, insulation, and other materials—leading to expensive structural damage over time.

At PuroClean, we specialize in professional mold removal in Boulder. Our team uses industry-approved methods to identify, contain, and remove mold infestations at their source. We go beyond surface cleaning to ensure your property is thoroughly treated and protected from future mold issues.

Using infrared cameras and moisture meters, we pinpoint hidden mold and water sources behind walls and under flooring. With this information, we create a custom remediation plan tailored to your property’s needs. If you suspect mold in your home or business, don’t wait. Early intervention is key to minimizing damage and cost.

We proudly serve Boulder, Westminster, Longmont, Lafayette and the surrounding region.

Our Mold Removal Process: Safe, Effective, and Thorough


Our mold removal services in Boulder follows a strict, multi-step process to ensure your space is not only clean but also safe for reentry. We begin with a detailed inspection of your property to assess the extent of the mold growth and locate any hidden moisture that could be feeding it. This inspection includes both visual assessment and advanced moisture detection tools.

Once identified, we isolate the contaminated areas using containment barriers and negative air pressure machines to prevent spores from spreading during removal. Our IICRC-certified technicians then begin physical removal of mold-infested materials and perform HEPA vacuuming and air filtration to trap airborne spores.

We use EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments to clean and sanitize all affected surfaces. In cases of severe contamination, porous materials such as drywall or carpet may need to be removed and replaced to fully eliminate the mold. We always follow strict disposal protocols to ensure contaminated materials are removed safely from your property.

Finally, we conduct a post-remediation inspection to ensure all visible mold is removed and indoor air quality is safe. We may recommend a third-party air quality test for additional peace of mind. Every step we take is designed to restore your property to a healthy, mold-free state and prevent recurrence.

Whether you’re dealing with black mold in your basement or persistent mildew in a commercial space, you can count on PuroClean for effective and professional mold removal in Boulder.
