You suddenly find yourself in need of a mold remediation company, but how do you know you are choosing the right one? Here are several important tips to keep in mind as you consider your options.
Experience
It’s important to hire a company that has experience dealing with the specifics of mold remediation. Do a little digging, look through their company website and see if they have any customer testimonials. Look for reviews on reputable sites to see what other people have to say. Once you choose your mold remediation company, give them a call. Don’t be afraid to ask them what makes them an expert. They should be able to tell you how long they have been in business and how they plan on handling your mold problem. If they can’t answer your questions with easy-to-understand answers, it may be time to look elsewhere.
Certification, Licensing, and Insurance
Any time you have work done on your home or business you want to make sure the people completing the work are licensed and certified. For example, you want to choose a mold remediation company that is IICRC certified. The IICRC, or the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification, is the non-profit certifying body for the cleaning and restoration industry. You also want a company that has insurance coverage for General Liability, Pollution Liability, and Workmen’s Compensation. This protects you and the business from any problems that may arise while work is being completed.
Methods of Mold Remediation
Be wary of any company offering a “quick-fix.” In order to be effective, mold remediation needs to be done correctly. When you speak to a representative, ask questions and have them tell you about their mold remediation process. FloodCo USA has a simple 5 step process that we’re happy to walk you through. It starts with air and surface testing and goes from there depending on our findings. Our number one priority is ensuring you have a safe and healthy home for your family.
Is Mold The Company’s Specialization?
Some companies offer mold remediation as one of the many services they offer. While there is nothing wrong with that, it’s important to consider the level of expertise that comes when dealing with a company that only handles mold and water damage. By hiring a mold remediation specialist you can be assured that they know how to handle even the worst mold infestation with quick professional service.
Choose a Mold Remediation Company That You Trust
From your first contact with a company to your last, you want a mold remediation company you are comfortable with. Find a mold remediation company that is honest and upfront in its dealings. A good company will show genuine concern for your mold problem and will take the time to answer your questions while explaining the solution in order to ensure you understand the process that will take place.
