Mold Remediation
The Importance of Mold Removal and Remediation
Mold can significantly impact the health of your home's occupants and weaken the structure of your property. Without proper mold remediation, it can spread quickly, creating potential hazards. Mold growth can occur almost anywhere: on furniture, inside walls, in the attic, on ceilings, and even beneath floors. That’s why professional mold removal is crucial to protect both your home and your health.
Our expert team provides fast and efficient mold removal services, working closely with trusted vendors and subcontractors to restore your property to a safe and healthy condition.
Undetected moisture is a primary cause of mold, leading to structural damage and serious health risks like respiratory issues and allergies. Early detection and removal of mold are essential to prevent it from spreading throughout your home.

Our Mold Remediation Approach
At Four Seasons Restoration, we base our mold remediation process on detailed mold testing reports provided by a licensed third-party vendor or an environmental testing company of your choice. Regardless of your selection, our process follows a strict, step-by-step approach to ensure thorough and effective mold removal:
Phase 1: Mold Detection & Assessment
Our process begins with a thorough visual inspection and detailed assessment of the affected areas. At Four Seasons Restoration, we go beyond basic mold detection by using advanced thermal imaging technology to identify moisture levels that could indicate hidden mold growth.
Phase 2: Containment Setup
To prevent the spread of mold, we immediately establish containment in the affected areas. Four Seasons Restoration provides a range of containment solutions, including durable plastic walls and temporary solid barriers. These options allow businesses to continue operations while we handle mold remediation, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily activities.
Phase 3: Mold Removal and Decontamination
Once containment is established, we begin the careful process of mold removal. This includes the safe bagging and disposal of contaminated items and materials, with the client's consent. We also clean and decontaminate the HVAC duct system and use HEPA vacuuming to eliminate mold particles. Our team conducts a thorough cleaning of both the structure and its contents, and sets up air filtration equipment, including dehumidifiers and negative air machines, to ensure the complete removal of mold.
Phase 4: Clearance Testing and Containment Removal
After mold remediation, a third-party environmental testing company will conduct a clearance test. If the property passes, we proceed with containment tear-down and disassembly of air filtration equipment. Once this step is complete, your property is safe and ready for restoration to its original condition.
