Mold Remediation Process

Finding mold in your home in Henderson, CO, can be incredibly stressful, and not knowing the cost of mold removal can add to your stress. There are various steps in the mold remediation process and knowing an approximate cost of each step can be useful to homeowners.

1. Assessments

Assessments are often one of the least expensive parts of the mold remediation process. During an assessment, an inspector will thoroughly assess your home and will search for signs of damage. When mold is identified, an inspector will take a sample to send to a lab in order to determine the type of mold in your home. Generally, the overall cost of an assessment is less than one thousand dollars.

2. Structural Damage and Loss of Items

The cost of restoring the structure of your home can be a costly expense. Mold removal may be possible for some personal belongings that have been damaged in your home, and the cost of restoration is generally less than the cost of replacing items. Although the restoration process of your home and the costs of restoring or replacing your belongings can be expensive, some insurance policies may cover part of the damage depending on the cause.

3. Remediation

Removing the mold in your home can be a time-consuming process depending on the extent of the damage that has occurred. For example, black mold removal can be a lengthy process due to the hazardous nature of the mold. During the process, mold remediation specialists will contain the mold to one area in order to mitigate the damage and prevent the spores from spreading to other locations in your home. Then, specialists will sanitize and clean the area until the level of mold spores present is safe.

The cost of mold removal can vary depending on the type of mold present and the amount of damage. However, having an estimate of how much an assessment, replacement, restoration and remediation will cost can help you feel more prepared for the process of mold remediation.
