Black Mold
As you can see, the mold growth was bad!
From the Laundry Room
It was all over the laundry room...
To the Bathroom
...and the bathroom too!
A Leak from Years Ago
Apparently, there was a water leak that happened years ago. Since no one had lived in the home for quite a long period of time, mold had developed.
Materials were Comprised
Due to the fact that the structural integrity of the sheetrock and wooden beams were comprised from the mold, at the owners request, a tear out was needed.
Tear Out and MAPS 1
Once all the contaminated materials were removed and carefully disposed of, we treated the affected areas in the laundry room, the hallway, and the bathroom with our EPA registered antimicrobial called MAPS 1. This solution attacks mold at its DNA and immediately kills it. Afterward, we applied our mold stain remover and scrubbed away all the mold stains.
Prevents Mold from Returning
Lastly, we applied MAPS 2, which is our patented sealant that encapsulates the surface mold is growing on and renders it harmless and non-allergic. MAPS 2 is also moisture sensitive and will reactivate whenever it gets wet to prevent any future mold growth. In a short period of time, the owner can start fixing up the home.
