If your Ames home had water damage — even a minor leak — and wasn't properly dried within 48 hours, there's a good chance mold is growing somewhere. Our IICRC AMRT-certified technicians use moisture meters, thermal imaging, and visual inspection to find it, then contain, remove, and treat with professional antimicrobials.
Our Mold Remediation Process
Assessment & Testing
Visual inspection plus moisture mapping identifies the scope. We recommend a third-party air test before remediation starts — independent testing keeps the process honest.
Containment & HEPA Filtration
Full containment with negative air pressure prevents mold spores from reaching clean areas. HEPA scrubbers run continuously. Our crew enters and exits through sealed openings only.
Mold Removal
Mold-colonized materials are removed through the containment seal and bagged for disposal. Remaining structural surfaces get HEPA-vacuumed and treated with professional antimicrobials.
Post-Remediation Testing
Post-remediation air samples collected by an independent tester — not our company. Lab results prove the mold levels are back to normal. Only then do we tear down containment.
