Dry ice blasting is a specialized mold removal method that uses compressed CO2 pellets to clean contaminated surfaces without adding moisture. In Miami, where humidity already creates ideal conditions for mold growth, using a dry process helps prevent further moisture exposure during cleanup.
At FixMold, dry ice blasting is used to remove mold from hard to reach and sensitive surfaces such as wood framing, structural materials, and confined areas. The process works by blasting dry ice particles at high speed, which lifts contamination without damaging the underlying surface. Because the material evaporates on contact, it leaves no residue behind.
This method is especially effective in areas where traditional cleaning methods may spread moisture or fail to reach deep contamination. It allows for precise removal while maintaining control over the environment, which is critical in enclosed spaces.
Our goal is to provide an efficient and controlled solution that removes contamination without introducing additional risk. Dry ice blasting helps restore affected areas while maintaining the integrity of the structure and supporting a cleaner indoor environment.

FixMold focuses on eliminating mold from your environment.
But for some individuals, recovery doesn’t stop there.
Even after successful remediation, the body may continue responding to past exposure. In these cases, a structured, medically guided approach may be necessary to support full recovery.
Yes. The CO2 dry ice mist is non-toxic and leaves no chemical residue on surfaces after the treatment dissipates. CO2 is naturally present in the atmosphere and the mist itself evaporates without leaving any material behind. The hydrogenation reaction targets the cellular biology of mold organisms specifically and does not produce compounds harmful to humans or animals. Our organic VOC-free approach applies across every technology we use including this one.
No. Dry ice blasting is a physical abrasion process where frozen CO2 pellets are propelled at a surface to remove material mechanically, similar to sandblasting. CO2 hydrogenation is a chemical process where CO2 in a specific state is used to generate a reactive mist that penetrates materials and addresses mold contamination through a biochemical reaction rather than physical abrasion. The mechanisms, the equipment and the outcomes are fundamentally different.
No. The CO2 hydrogenation process is exclusively patented for use by the Katz family's companies. FixMold is the entity through which this technology is currently deployed in South Florida. If another company claims to offer CO2 hydrogenation mold treatment, ask to see their licensing documentation.
No, and any company suggesting that chemical treatment alone is sufficient without physical removal of contaminated materials is not following professional remediation standards. CO2 hydrogenation addresses contamination in the substrate and in inaccessible cavities. It works alongside physical removal, not instead of it. The full FixMold 12-step process uses both because each addresses a different dimension of the problem.
