Our Water and Flood Remediation Process

Our Mold Remediation Process

Step 1

Emergency Assessment

We use the latest tools and technology to identify the source and the amount of mold in your home and even which (if any) items can be saved. Our thorough inspection can also help provide proof for insurance claims.

Step 2

Containment and Isolation

It's imperative to contain and isolate the area affected by mold. Our team seals off the area using plastic sheeting or negative air pressure machines to prevent the tracking mold spores to other areas of the house. We employ air filtration systems to remove spores from the air and keep them from spreading.

Step 3

Mold Removal and Cleaning

Once the mold is contained and the area is isolated, our mold experts get to work! Mold removal usually includes disposing of moldy porous building materials (drywall, insulation, etc.) and flooring. The goal is to make sure that no mold spores are left behind, so we deep clean the exposed areas and any materials, furniture, and personal items that can be saved.

Step 4

Dehumidification and Drying

Once all of the mold is removed, our teams dehumidify the space. Dehumidifiers don't kill mold, but they are designed to remove excess moisture (humidity) and dampness from the air—which mold needs to live. We want the area to be as clean, dry, and moisture-free as possible.

Step 5

Sanitization and Disinfection

Sanitation is critical to preventing mold from coming back! Our team utilizes specialized mold cleaners and strong sanitizers, coupled with advanced disinfection methods, to thoroughly cleanse the affected area. We employ cutting-edge technology and high-quality products, ensuring that mold and any remaining contaminants are effectively eradicated.

Step 6

Restoration and Repairs

After containment, cleaning, and disinfection, Zen Dry Restoration will replace drywall, flooring, and other materials in the affected rooms. Mold-resistant materials may be used to prevent re-growth, and new ventilation/dehumidification systems may be installed. Our mold experts then perform post-remediation testing to confirm whether indoor air quality is safe.

Can I Get Rid of Mold Myself?

Removing mold from porous surfaces is complicated. It can be a do-it-yourself job if the mold is only in a small area. If the mold contamination exceeds 10 square feet, the EPA recommends calling in an IICRC Certified contractor like Zen Dry Restoration, experienced in mold remediation.

Keep in mind, if the water or mold damage was caused by sewage or other contaminated water, then call in a professional who has experience cleaning and fixing buildings damaged by contaminated water.
