Mold contamination, a common occurrence in water-damaged buildings, is a proven serious health risk; immediate removal is key. If the home or building has had current or past water damage, particularly to building materials, a microbial investigation is warranted. This investigation should be performed by a company with microbiology or toxicology experience.

First a visual examination of the building and HVAC system will be conducted. The next step will be to perform surface and air samplings for analysis by an independent microbial laboratory. A remediation plan by Best Dressed will be developed detailing method, scope, time and controls to be used.

In the case of an emergency, Best Dressed will remove all wet materials from the site and provide the necessary air circulation to deter dampness before bacteria can multiply.

In cases where water damage has developed over a period of time, an analytical survey will be taken to determine the most effective remedial method, based on fungus type and location, as well as the extent of damages and exposure.
