Choosing a professional restoration company like Arizona Restoration Contractors is essential for effective mold remediation. If not handled properly, mold remediation can spread mold spores throughout your property, worsening the problem. Mold remediation is a complex process that must be taken seriously due to the potential health hazards it presents.

Our mold remediation process includes:

1. Mold Testing & Inspection  – We conduct a comprehensive inspection to identify visible mold growth and moisture sources. Mold testing can also be performed to assess the type and extent of mold present, ensuring an effective remediation plan.
2. Containment – To prevent the spread of mold spores, we isolate the affected area with plastic sheeting and tape and may employ negative air pressure systems.
3. Air Filtration – HEPA filters and air scrubbers purify the air, capturing mold spores and other particulates to maintain safe air quality.
4. Mold Removal  – Depending on the surfaces involved, non-porous materials can be cleaned and saved, while porous materials like drywall or carpet may require removal and replacement. Special cleaning agents and antimicrobials eliminate mold effectively.
5. Restoration and Prevention – After mold removal, we address the root cause to prevent recurrence. Moisture meters and infrared cameras detect hidden water sources, and we make necessary repairs, including leak fixes and ventilation improvements. A final inspection and air quality testing confirm the environment is safe.

Mold remediation typically costs $2.50 to $20 per square foot in Arizona and the surrounding areas. Several factors influence the cost of mold remediation, including:

• Extent of Mold Infestation  – Larger mold issues require more extensive remediation, increasing the cost.
• Type of Mold  – Some molds are harder to remove and may require specialized treatment.
• Location of Mold – Hard-to-reach areas like crawl spaces or attics may require additional labor and equipment.
• Source of Moisture – Fixing leaks or addressing moisture problems adds to the total cost.
• Material Contamination – If building materials such as drywall or insulation are contaminated, they may need to be replaced.

Arizona Restoration Contractors handles all types of mold, regardless of location or severity. Our expert team can create a remediation plan tailored to your needs.
