(Mold) Remediation
|
|
| Fungus can be broken
down into many groups. A couple of common ones are as follows:
A few common types of fungus are macro fungi which
are of the larger size like mushrooms, toadstools, bracts and puff
balls. It's part of the Eco System. Fungi (macro or micro) was created
to decompose organic material like dead trees in the forests, or
leaves on the ground and various organic materials in general.

|
|
Another type are the microscopic fungi like molds, mildews and rust.
And unless viewed under a microscope, they must be clumped together
into advanced colonies of mycelia for us to see them. Health and
scientific studies have found that chemicals known as mycotoxins
are emitted from the hyphae and spores of some molds, causing harmful
health effects.

Aqua Restoration can properly remove toxic molds and their spores
from your structure and in your living and working environments
properly and the first time.
The public is becoming more aware of the serious human health
threat mold has. Molds can grow rapidly following a water loss,
and one of our goals at Aqua Restoration is to remove or clean contaminated
building materials in the home and working environments as well
as personal belongings that have been damaged, providing the structural
integrity is not compromised of the item in question. |

Along with an Environmental Consultant or a Certified Industrial
Hygienist, Aqua Restoration can develop a remediation plan detailing
the protocol, scope, time and cost of remediation. Personal belongings
that can be cleaned and restored are itemized along with the method
of cleaning and removed in a manner that does not cross-contaminate
clean areas. Upon completion of the remediation project, clearance
samples should be taken to ensure cleanliness. |
