Our technicians our trained in the latest containment procedures
The use of HEPA air filtration systems and HEPA Vacuums are utilized extensively to minimize any kind of cross contamination.

Trying to remove mold without the proper remediation procedures and equipment could result in releasing thousands of mold spores throughout your home or building.

The use of gaseous, vapor-phase, or aerosolized biocides for remedial purposes is not recommended.
The use of biocides in this manner can pose health concerns for people in occupied spaces of the building and for people returning to the treated space if used improperly.

MoldFreeHomeVa LLC Does Not Use any type of Biocide remediation solutions, MoldFreeHomeVa LLC uses chemicals that are registered with the EPA as non-toxic and are commonly used in both the hospital and construction industries.
One of the Non Toxic Advanced Cleaning Solutions we use is called Anabec Advanced Systems Cleaner.

Remediation Services:

  • Removal and Disposal of Contaminated materials.

  • Using a Negative Air Containment HEPA air filtration system

  • Using HEPA vacuums during removal and cleanup

  • Cleaning and remediating the remaining building materials

  • Using an Non-Toxic Anti Microbial treatment to prevent future growth

  • Attic and crawlspace Non-Toxic Anti Microbial treatments

  • Professional rebuild, remodel or renovation of removed building materials
    such as: flooring, drywall, sinks, toilets, studs, joists etc.

  • Professional Painting

Four different levels of Mold Remediation abatement that Moldfreehomeva LLC follows are described below.

The size of the area impacted by fungal contamination primarily determines the type of remediation. The sizing levels below are based on professional judgment and practicality; currently there is not adequate data to relate the extent of contamination to frequency or severity of health effects.

Level 1 : Small Isolated Areas (10 sq. ft or less) - e.g., ceiling tiles, small areas on walls

  1. Remediation can be conducted by persons who have received training on proper clean up methods, personal protection, and potential health hazards. Respiratory protection in accordance with the OSHA respiratory protection standard (29 CFR 1910.134), is recommended.
    Gloves and eye protection should be worn.

  2. The work area should be unoccupied. Vacating people from spaces adjacent to the work area is not necessary but is recommended in the presence of infants (less than 12 months old), persons recovering from recent surgery, immune suppressed people, or people with chronic inflammatory lung diseases (e.g., asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and severe allergies).

  3. Containment of the work area is not necessary. Dust suppression methods, such as misting (not soaking) surfaces prior to remediation, are recommended.

  4. Contaminated materials that cannot be cleaned should be removed from the building in a sealed plastic bag. There are no special requirements for the disposal of moldy materials.

  5. The work area and areas used by remedial workers for egress should be cleaned with a damp cloth and/or mop and a detergent solution.

  6. All areas should be left dry and visibly free from contamination and debris.

Level 2 : Mid-Sized Isolated Areas (10 - 30 sq. ft.) - e.g., individual wallboard panels.

  1. Remediation can be conducted by persons who have received training on proper clean up methods, personal protection, and potential health hazards.

  2. Respiratory protection (e.g., N95 disposable respirator), in accordance with the OSHA respiratory protection standard (29 CFR 1910.134), is recommended.
    Gloves and eye protection should be worn.
  3. The work area should be unoccupied. Vacating people from spaces adjacent to the work area is not necessary but is recommended in the presence of infants (less than 12 months old), persons having undergone recent surgery, immune suppressed people, or people with chronic inflammatory lung diseases (e.g., asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and severe allergies).

  4. The work area should be covered with a plastic sheet(s) and sealed with tape before remediation, to contain dust/debris.

  5. Dust suppression methods, such as misting (not soaking) surfaces prior to remediation, are recommended.

  6. Contaminated materials that cannot be cleaned should be removed from the building in sealed plastic bags.

  7. The work area and areas used by remedial workers for egress should be HEPA vacuumed (a vacuum equipped with a High-Efficiency Particulate Air filter) and cleaned with a damp cloth and/or mop and a detergent solution.

  8. All areas should be left dry and visibly free from contamination and debris.

Level 3 : Large Isolated Areas (30 - 100 square feet)

A Certified Mold Inspectors/Consultant with experience performing microbial investigations should be consulted prior to remediation activities.

The following procedures at a minimum are recommended:

  1. Certified Mold Removal Contractors trained in the handling of hazardous materials and equipped with respiratory protection. Gloves and eye protection should be worn.

  2. The work area and areas directly adjacent should be covered with a plastic sheet(s) and taped before remediation, to contain dust/debris.

  3. Seal ventilation ducts/grills in the work area and areas directly adjacent with plastic sheeting

  4. The work area and areas directly adjacent should be unoccupied. Further vacating of people from spaces near the work area is recommended in the presence of infants (less than 12 months old), persons having undergone recent surgery, immune suppressed people, or people with chronic inflammatory lung diseases.

  5. Dust suppression methods, such as misting (not soaking) surfaces prior to remediation, are recommended.

  6. Contaminated materials that cannot be cleaned should be removed from the building in sealed plastic bags. There are no special requirements for the disposal of moldy materials.
  7. The work area and surrounding areas should be HEPA vacuumed and cleaned with a damp cloth and/or mop and a detergent solution.

  8. All areas should be left dry and visibly free from contamination and debris.

If abatement procedures are expected to generate a lot of dust (e.g., abrasive cleaning of contaminated surfaces, demolition of plaster walls) or the visible concentration of the fungi is heavy (blanket coverage as opposed to patchy), then it is recommended that the remediation procedures for Level 4 are followed.

Level 4 : Extensive Contamination (greater than 100 contiguous square feet in an area)

Certified Mold Removal Contractors trained in the handling of hazardous materials and equipped with respiratory protection. Gloves and eye protection should be worn.

The following procedures are recommended:

  • Personnel trained in the handling of hazardous materials equipped with:
    1. Full-face respirators with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) cartridges
    2. Disposable protective clothing covering both head and shoes
    3. Gloves

  • Containment of the affected area:
    1. Complete isolation of work area from occupied spaces using plastic sheeting sealed with duct tape (including ventilation ducts/grills, fixtures, and any other openings)
    2. The use of an exhaust fan with a HEPA filter to generate negative pressurization
    3. Airlocks and decontamination room

  • Vacating people from spaces adjacent to the work area is not necessary but is recommended in the presence of infants (less than 12 months old), persons having undergone recent surgery, immune suppressed people, or people with chronic inflammatory lung diseases (e.g., asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and severe allergies).

  • Contaminated materials that cannot be cleaned should be removed from the building in sealed plastic bags. The outside of the bags should be cleaned with a damp cloth and a detergent solution or HEPA vacuumed in the decontamination chamber prior to their transport to uncontaminated areas of the building.

  • The contained area and decontamination room should be HEPA vacuumed and cleaned with a damp cloth and/or mop with a detergent solution and be visibly clean prior to the removal of isolation barriers.

  • Air monitoring should be conducted prior to occupancy to determine if the area is fit to reoccupy.
