Mold Remediation
Mold can present a major health hazard for everyone working in your business or on your property—particularly those who already suffer from asthma or allergies. If you have mold growing in your building, contact First Atlantic Restoration at 855-499-1915. Each member of our mold remediation team is highly trained and able to eliminate the potentially dangerous contaminant from your property.
When to Call a Mold Removal Professional
Though some varieties of mold are more dangerous than others, all types of mold should be treated as a health hazard. That’s because it’s often impossible to distinguish between the dangerous and less dangerous varieties without professional testing. Give First Atlantic Restoration a call, and we’ll help you get rid of the mold growth so you don’t have to worry about the effect it might be having on any occupants of your home or business.

Mold Remediation Process:
The EPA sets high standards for mold removal, and First Atlantic Restoration adheres to them all. We understand that mold growth can endanger your occupant’s health and the structural integrity of your property, and we take our job seriously. Therefore, our technicians carefully follow a 3-step process from which they never deviate in order to achieve total mold removal and business repair.
Assessment:
The most important thing to remember if you see mold is: Don’t try to clean it up yourself! Well-meaning property owners who think they can take care of the problem themselves may instead exacerbate it by encouraging the spread of spores. Call First Atlantic right away for an expert’s advice on how to eliminate any mold issues in your business. We pride ourselves on our integrity. If our services are not necessary, we will tell you. If your mold problem is slight, we can give you the solutions you need to take care of the issue yourself. Before doing the job yourself, protect your workers by calling us.
Containment:
Before any kind of mitigation services can be provided, it is essential to isolate and contain the mold contamination in order to discourage further growth. If any other mold cleanup company tries to begin mold removal processes before taking containment measures, don’t let them continue and call us instead. All of our technicians are thoroughly trained and experienced in how to keep mold growth to a single area and we never bypass this essential step: we always follow proper procedure and perform due diligence according to EPA standards and regulations.
Filtration:
One of the quickest ways for mold to spread is through the air and via your ventilation system. We use specialized filtration equipment that uses negative air technologies and specialized HEPA air scrubbers to prevent airborne mold from spreading during the removal process. It is a preventive measure that helps to ensure that mold spores remain contained.
Two Remediation Categories:
Before proceeding with any of Steps 2-5, First Atlantic technicians must receive written consent from the property owner to perform any and all mold removal tasks. Our remediation process falls into two categories and the process used will be determined by the severity of the problem and the determinations made during the assessment step.
- Light mold presence – If mold growth is caught early enough, our trained technicians can successfully use chemical treatments on the affected areas without having to remove any existing structural elements.
- More severe cases– If mold growth is advanced or if there are colonies within and behind walls or ceilings or under flooring, it may be necessary to remove problem areas altogether: drywall, carpeting, ceiling tiles, roofing, etc.
Our goal after mold removal is complete is to return your property as closely as possible to its pre-loss condition. All of our repairs are performed by professionals so you can be sure all repair jobs will be done right and in a timely manner.
