The process of mold remediation is simply the following:
1. Identify the source of the water that feeds the mold. This can be anything from plumbing, roofing leaks and even foundation leaks. In a basement foundation leaks are the most common cause of leaks.
2. Divert or control the mold water source. There are many opinions on how to waterproofing and you will always be safer to defer to a professional waterproofer.
3. Clean up any molded debris and dispose of them in a way that prevents contamination of other areas.
4. Do not immediately reapply building and finishing materials such as drywall and carpet. Continue inspection and allow the areas to fully dry.
