Mold Removal & Remediation in North Metro Atlanta

Mold growth occurs when materials stay wet for extended periods of time. Moisture intrusion can happen for several reasons, including but not limited to:

• Construction defects. Faulty construction practices or poor materials can lead to water intrusion, providing the ideal conditions for mold growth.
• Plumbing failures. Leaks or broken pipes can cause water to accumulate in hidden areas, leading to mold development.
• Breaks in appliance water lines or drain lines. A rupture in appliance water lines or drain pipes can release water into areas that are difficult to detect, creating a breeding ground for mold.
• Lack of proper maintenance. Failing to maintain plumbing systems, appliances, or roofing can allow moisture to persist, leading to mold issues over time.
• Weather-related issues, such as storms or hurricanes. Extreme weather events, like heavy rain or flooding from hurricanes, can cause moisture to infiltrate homes and businesses, promoting mold growth.

When mold is discovered in your home or business, it is crucial to act quickly and remediate the issue to prevent further damage. Additionally, structural materials should be dried as soon as possible to limit mold growth.

PuroClean’s IICRC-certified technicians follow industry standards to properly remediate mold and restore affected property. Our goal is to return your property to its pre-loss condition by following these steps:

1. Assess the Situation: We begin by inspecting the affected area(s) to establish a detailed scope of remediation and repair.
2. Containment: Using engineering controls, we create containment areas with negative pressure and HEPA air filtration devices to prevent mold spores from spreading to unaffected areas.
3. Remediation Protocol: We carefully remove contaminated materials following industry standards and clean the air with HEPA filters and vacuums.
4. Surface Cleaning: All surfaces are cleaned with EPA-registered disinfectants, followed by thorough HEPA vacuuming to remove any remaining mold particles.

Once the remediation process is complete, we recommend having a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) conduct a third-party clearance test to ensure the space is safe for re-occupancy. You can find a CIH through ACGIH.org.

We provide a complete estimate, including photos, to the agent or adjuster within 24-48 hours. Our commitment to quality ensures that you’ll receive ongoing communication and detailed reporting throughout the process.
