Home Mold Remediation

Mold remediators focus on removing both the mold and the actual material that is contaminated. Home mold removal requires identifying the root cause and source of mold and implementing measures to prevent any future growth.

The sooner you can take action to remove mold, the better. Mold removal companies will start by inspecting your home, isolate contaminated areas, and safely remove and dispose of the contamination.

This process can be intricate and complex, requiring trained professionals like Coastal Inspections Testing.

Mold Mitigation

In plain English, mitigation is the process that reduces mold and prevents it from spreading. It involves an evaluation of your situation to recommend and/or implement various measures, including the following:

Moisture control
Improved ventilation
Leak repairs
Proper insulation
Dehumidifiers
Gutter cleaning
Duct cleaning
Mold-resistant paint or other building materials

Mold mitigation is essential to controlling moisture levels in your home and minimizing the risk of any health issues.

Mold Abatement

You might hear terms like mold mitigation, mold abatement, and mold remediation used interchangeably. Though nearly synonymous, there are some subtle differences. Specifically, mold remediation is the process of total mold removal, while the goal of abatement and mitigation is to control and prevent mold growth.

For example, mold abatement refers to reducing and putting an end to mold growth. It can often involve spot-treating an area that is not at risk for mold to return. Mold remediation, on the other hand, is more comprehensive process that targets the materials and structures that have been affected by mold.
