We at Certified Mold Removal have a process for inspecting, identifying and remediating mold.
Two certified technicians come down to your property to do a full house inspection.
They take air samples-to check if there is mold in the air, and swab samples off areas of suspected surface growth itself.
In addition to that, they use infrared cameras to show clearly what is present behind the walls, and moisture readers to determine levels of excess moisture or condensation behind the walls, which will determine the source of the mold growth-such as any moisture interference, water damage, etc.
We also make a baseline comparison using particle counters in the home as well as outside to determine the amount of negative particles that are in elevated levels compared to the outside of the premises.
Within 2-3 business days we receive the lab results and submit them to you, along with a full report from our company detailing the findings of the technicians, such as:
1. If mold is present in the property.
2. The severity of the growth.
3. The treatment process necessary to remove the mold.
4. How to prevent the mold from reoccurring, along with standard and infrared images pertaining to your property.
The cost for the inspection is $550 and that includes the air testing, swab sampling, infrared technology, moisture readings, a detailed report clarifying the type of mold present, if it is toxic or non-toxic, how severe the growth is, how fast it is growing as well as the health symptoms relating to this form of mold. If the mold growth has escalated to another floor, additional tests are required at a cost of $100/test. If mold removal is necessary, the $550 gets applied towards the fee of the mold removal.
Mold Removal Service Guarantee: Five Boro Mold Specialist will guarantee that upon completion of any mold remediation services performed, all elevations of fungi and/or mold growth will be removed from affected areas. In addition we guarantee that no new mold will reappear in the treated areas for up to 2 years from the date of remediation. Should there be a problem for any reason whatsoever, we will send a technician to the property to address the issue accordingly. All guarantees are in effect once all pertinent fees are paid in full by the client.
