Mold grows around a leaking tub wall in a bathroom. We are trusted leaders in mold remediation services in Lane County.

Although we are better known for fire and water damage restoration services, our team in Springfield and East Lane County are trained and certified to mitigate and restore mold outbreaks in Springfield. Often a mold outbreak is a symptom of a water damage issue. We will inspect and locate the source of the excess moisture and correct the problem to discourage the mold from returning once the remediation process is complete. Part of the mold removal process involves mold containment and air filtration. Here is some information from our website describing these procedures:

Mold Containment

Our professionals use various containment procedures to prevent the spread of mold. We may use advanced containment procedures like negative air chambers to isolate the contaminated area with physical barriers and negative air pressure to keep the mold spores from spreading during the cleanup process. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread of mold.

Air Filtration

Our specialized filtration equipment allows our Professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while mold remediation is in process.
