Mold grows fast in LA — heat and humidity let Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Stachybotrys colonize within 48-72 hours after water exposure. If you see or smell mold in your New Orleans property, it's established and needs professional remediation. Bleach only bleaches the surface while roots keep growing behind the wall.
Our Mold Remediation Process
Mold Inspection
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 Setup
We build a sealed containment zone with 6-mil poly sheeting and run negative air machines. HEPA air scrubbers filter the air inside containment. Spores stay contained — they don't spread.
Removal & Treatment
We cut out affected drywall, insulation, and other materials safely. Structural wood and concrete get antimicrobial treatment. Everything is done inside containment with HEPA filtration running.
Post-Remediation Testing
An independent industrial hygienist collects air samples after remediation. When results come back within normal range, we sign off. We don't test our own work — that's a conflict of interest.

About Our New Orleans Mold Remediation Services
Containment is the most important step and the one most companies cut corners on. We build a full chamber with 6-mil poly and negative air pressure — air flows in, not out. HEPA scrubbers filter continuously. Techs wear respirators and Tyvek suits. After removal, every surface gets HEPA-vacuumed and antimicrobial treatment.
We recommend independent mold testing before and after remediation for baseline data and verification. We refer qualified industrial hygienists in New Orleans. Post-clearance air testing is the gold standard for confirming the job worked. Call (866) 993-3605 to schedule a free assessment.
