Mold

What is Mold?

Mold is a type of fungus that grows in damp, humid environments, both indoors and outdoors. Mold is a common and dangerous issue in Florida, where humidity levels are high throughout the year.

Mold can develop in as little as 24 to 48 hours in warm, damp conditions, making immediate action essential. FixMold offers a full spectrum of mold-related services, from inspection to remediation, ensuring your home remains healthy and safe.

10 Step Process

Icon
The technician uses advanced tools like moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to detect hidden water damage. Moisture mapping helps to track the source and spread of water throughout the property, including under floors, behind walls, and inside crawl spaces.
Icon
The team employs industrial-grade extraction equipment to remove standing water from the affected areas. This may include specialized vacuums, pumps, and other devices to quickly extract water and prevent further damage to the property.
Icon
Once water is removed, drying equipment, including air movers and dehumidifiers, is placed strategically throughout the affected area to speed up the drying process. This helps prevent the development of mold and ensures that all surfaces return to normal moisture levels.
Icon
Special equipment is used to monitor humidity levels and air quality. This ensures that no excess moisture remains, and it helps to avoid potential mold growth or lingering water-related damage to the property.
Icon
Technicians use infrared cameras and hygrometers to confirm that all affected structural areas—walls, floors, and ceilings—are thoroughly dried. This step ensures there are no hidden moisture pockets left that could lead to future damage or mold issues.
Icon
All affected areas are sanitized to prevent contamination and the spread of bacteria. Disinfectants are applied to eliminate any microbes and improve the overall safety and cleanliness of the home.
Icon
Based on the extent of the water damage, mold prevention treatments may be applied to high-risk areas to inhibit future mold growth. This includes treating moisture-prone areas, such as HVAC systems, attics, or basements.
Icon
Technicians begin restoring any damaged areas, including repairing floors, walls, and ceilings. The goal is to return the property to its pre-damage condition with high-quality repairs, whether minor fixes or larger structural work.
Icon
The team performs a comprehensive final inspection to ensure the property is fully restored and free from any remaining water damage. A detailed report, including all moisture readings, before-and-after images, and recommendations, is provided to the client, ensuring complete transparency and peace of mind.
Icon
A certified water damage technician arrives on-site to perform a full assessment of the property. The technician inspects for visible signs of water damage and checks for any leaks or water intrusions in the walls, ceilings, floors, or other affected areas. This includes understanding the history of the water damage event and asking the client about any health concerns they may have noticed.

Do's & Don'ts Until Help Arrives

What to Do ?

Turn off your HVAC system and any fans to prevent spreading mold spores throughout your home.

If safe, locate the source of the water intrusion and take steps to stop it to minimize further damage.

Evacuate the area if mold is extensive and may pose health risks. Wear protective gear if you need to enter the affected space.

Take photographs of the affected areas for insurance claims and record-keeping.

Reach out to FixMold for a comprehensive assessment and professional remediation services.

What Not to Do ?

Do not disturb or touch any visible mold, as this can release spores into the air.

Avoid blowing air across surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth, which can spread contamination.

Refrain from trying to dry the area yourself, as improper methods can exacerbate the problem.

Do not spray bleach or other cleaning agents on the mold; this often fails to kill mold and can be harmful.

Painting over mold will not solve the issue and can trap moisture, leading to further growth.

Avoid keeping doors and windows open or using air conditioning when mold is present indoors.
