Professional Mold Inspection: PuroClean works with you to help determine the source of the moisture and how to correct the problem. PuroClean uses professional meters to detect moisture levels in the air (humidity) and in contents/structure. Addressing the moisture issue causing the mold problem is the most important step in the mold remediation process. PuroClean will provide you a detailed line-item mold removal estimate for consideration and possible review with your insurance company.

Mold Testing: PuroClean will take several air and surface samples and submit them to an independent AIHA certified laboratory for mold analysis. A professional laboratory report will be provided to you detailing the mold (spore) type and count for each sampled surface and/or area. An outdoor air sample will be taken as well for reference. PuroClean will review the report with you in detail and answer any questions regarding the results.

The Details That Go Into Treating Water Damage to Properties in Cleveland & Akron

Water damage restoration may include a few or all of the following:

* Work authorization agreements are layed out in detail and then signed.
* Moisture meters detect and determines the extent of damage to the structure. All structure surfaces are analyzed including walls, ceilings, carpets, sub-flooring, crawl spaces, etc.
* Water is extracted if the scope of the damage calls for it.
* Pack-up any contents within the affected area if needed. Move and block up furniture within the affected area if needed.
* Chemical application to affected surfaces & contents using odor removals, deodorizers, and disinfectants to prevent bacterial growth and mildew in carpets. Any area affected by moisture is a breeding ground for microbial growth.
* Setup the necessary drying equipment strategically within the affected area (air movers/fans, dehumidifiers, air cleaners, etc).
* Monitor daily the equipment and the results of the drying process by taking all required readings. Drying typically takes three to seven days, but at times takes longer.


Once the drying is completed and the structure is back to it's pre-existing state, some of the things that may occur are the following:

* Contents are cleaned and placed back into it's original setting.
* Necessary repairs are completed and carpet and pad is reinstalled if necessary.
* Carpeted areas are cleaned accordingly as well as all traffic areas that were used during the entire process.
* Move and reset furniture as necessary.
* Final inspection is completed and customer sign-off. Obviously, each water disaster is different and calls for different techniques and areas of expertise.
