PuroClean\u2019s IICRC certified technicians follow industry best practices to properly remediate mold that has infected and\/or damaged and return the property to a pre-loss condition. Once a scope of remediation and repair has been determined, they will implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected sections of a building utilizing negative pressure with HEPA air filtration devices. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The removal of compromised materials and contents per industry standards.<\/li>\n<li>A thorough cleaning using HEPA air filter devices and HEPA vacuums.<\/li>\n<li>A thorough cleaning of all surfaces with cleaning solutions that can include EPA registered disinfectants, followed by another HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Many people use bleach to clean mold; however, this is an <strong>ineffective<\/strong> strategy as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them. PuroClean\u2019s mission is to return your property to a safe and clean condition.<\/p>\n<p>Odors are a sign that something could still be wet. If something has a musty pungent odor it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC\u2019s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and can cause health related issues. PuroClean\u2019s approach is to follow industry standards to develop the right scope of repair for your business or home, which includes employing specialized equipment, cleaning practices, followed by recommending a clearance test to ensure your property has reached the desired goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ongoing Communication:<\/strong> PuroClean in Bryan\/College Station and Brazos Valley strives to be transparent in all its work so that all parties are aware and confident in making decisions.

Our goal is to dry all materials such as drywall, wood, carpet and padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, furniture, upholstery, and more, providing they are not contaminated, or structurally compromised according to industry standards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Emergency Extraction of Water in Bryan\/College Station and Brazos Valley<\/h3>\n<p>We begin by extracting any standing water found in your home or business using high-grade equipment strategically placed to extract all water from the premises.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Our specialized pumping equipment will be used to remove all standing water right away upon arrival.

Our technicians monitor humidity levels closely during this process of drying to ensure proper drying is happening.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Final Cleaning Processes<\/h2>\n<p>Odors can form in a carpet that has been water damaged very easily due to soils and potentially from other issues such as mildew and may spread beyond the affected area to your entire home or business.
