Homeowners Trust Us & We are Ready 24/7

Mold spores are present everywhere outdoors and can enter buildings through open windows or doors, HVAC systems, pets, people’s clothing or bags, and more. However, mold will only grow indoors when there is moisture available. Common causes of indoor mold growth we remediate include:

  • Water damage from leaks, flooding, sewage backups, etc.
  • High humidity levels and dampness from poor ventilation, HVAC issues, cooking, showers, etc.
  • Condensation buildup on windows, walls, ceilings, and cold water pipes
  • Wet building materials, such as drywall, carpets, wood, and insulation
  • Leaky roofs, plumbing, or appliances
  • Landscaping and drainage issues allowing water intrusion
  • Bathroom and kitchen moisture from showers, dishwashers, etc.

If excessive moisture is not addressed quickly, mold can begin forming on various surfaces within 24 to 48 hours.

Our Mold Remediation Process

How We Handle Indoor Mold

Southeast Water Restoration follows strict industry guidelines for safe, effective mold removal:

  1. Inspection & Testing – Our mold specialists inspect all accessible areas using moisture meters, hygrometers, boroscopes, and air sampling to locate mold and identify moisture issues.
  2. Containment – The affected area is isolated using plastic sheeting and negative air machines with HEPA filtration to prevent spore spread.
  3. Removal – Moldy materials are discarded. Surfaces are scrubbed with antimicrobial cleaners or other methods to remove mold residue and inhibit regrowth.
  4. Decontamination – Any remaining spores are eliminated using HEPA vacuuming and air scrubbing treatments. Dehumidification systems may be installed.
  5. Moisture Control – The underlying moisture source allowing mold growth is identified and fully repaired.
  6. Verification – We conduct follow-up inspections and testing to verify mold has been successfully removed and moisture is controlled before containment is lifted
