There are more than 100,000 types of mold. Some molds produce powerful chemicals called "mycotoxins" that can produce illness in animals and people - so don't take any chances.

Mold can cause havoc on your immune system and can lead to serious illnesses. Individuals seem to be quite different in their response to exposure to the toxic chemicals that some molds release. These differences between individuals contribute to the difficult question of determining safe exposure limits for mold. You can't take a chance if you are responsible for others.

If you have discovered mold in your work or home environment,
please give our firm a call at 404-456-8217 or asap@asapmold.com.

WE KNOW COMMERCIAL MOLD REMEDIATION!

ASAP specializes in commercial mold remediation. ASAP has a professional designated commercial inspector who has 32 years of commercial construction and mold experience. No one does it better.

Property managers, inspectors and insurance adjusters rely heavily on ASAP to be their main mold remediation company.

In commercial mold remediation, protocol absolutely must be followed.
ASAP can certainly write “protocol”, however, we believe protocol should be written by an outside firm to eliminate a possibility of conflict of interest.

ASAP will immediately send a professional mold expert to evaluate the mold situation. Generally this professional will recommend a protocol be written by qualified personnel.

ASAP works closely with the protocol expert to gain a clear understanding of remediation procedures. Onsite meetings with the hygienist, owner, property management company and others involved are generally recommended.

All work scheduled is communicated to everyone involved before remediation begins.

In a Commercial building where a fungus is present, headaches, and allergy symptoms can decrease overall work productivity, resulting in higher cost.

Due to this potential harm, any water intrusion into a building should be handled quickly and professionally to ensure a healthy and productive work environment.

Step-By-Step Process:
  1. ASAP will send a commercial mold professional to assist in the development a remediation protocol.
  2. Contaminated work areas are isolated from clean areas with plastic sheeting barriers to prevent contaminates from spreading. ASAP’s professional experienced remediation specialists will perform all remediation activities.
  3. Contaminated contents are removed from the remediation areas and disposed of or cleaned.
  4. Surfaces are cleaned and treated for contaminants using HEPA vacuuming and or wiped with an anti-microbial solution.
  5. Damaged porous material will be bagged, sealed and properly disposed.
  6. Contained area shall be fogged with a mold kill solution.
  7. The remediated area must pass an independent mold clearance test by a third party.
  8. Area will be sealed or encapsulated.

ASAP inspectsfor mold on commercial property including office buildings, warehouses, shopping centers, apartment complexes, and multi unit properties

ASAP works with engineering consultants, insurance adjusters and third parties.

Occasionally ASAP will endorse commercial structure remediation thru dry ice blasting.

Dry ice blast cleaning (also referred to as co2 blasting) is similar to sand, bead or soda blasting, where dry-ice is accelerated in a pressurized air stream to impact the surface that is to be cleaned or prepared. With dry ice cleaning the particles vaporize upon impact with the surface. Because of the co2 vaporizing, the co2 blasting process does not generate any secondary waste. All that remains to be collected is the contaminant being removed. It is a remarkable process that has revolutionized the mold cleaning industry.

Mold spores are always present in the air and on objects around us. They lie dormant, waiting for the perfect conditions to grow. Once growth begins, it consumes everything in its path. Mold actually eats the item it is growing on and continues eating until it is eradicated. In some ways, mold is similar to cancer. You want to discover it early, remediate it all the first time because it’s easier and less expensive. Since microbial growth is exponential, quick response to eradicate is absolutely imperative.

Danger

What you don't see is the danger that lurks behind walls. Some people believe that they can take shortcuts when it comes to mold removal. Many have tried to scrape off the mold or Kilz & paint over it. These over simplistic "methods" of mold removal generally lead to a more advanced infestation of mold. To be sure that you have completely removed mold from your property you need a through inspection and proper remediation procedures. Mold in homes with spores in the air can be harmful to people without them even knowing it. Mold can grow behind walls for a long period of time before appearing in the infected area, though the smell will still linger.

Possibly. Shine a flashlight in the entrance and look all around. It should be dry after a rain and the wood should look new. It’s best to crawl in and look. Be sure to look in any area below kitchens and laundry rooms and prior water leak areas.

Why can’t we just bleach the mold?
You can’t use bleach because the mold will return. Bleach will not reach the mold roots, which are embedded well. It does temporarily decolorize mold, but it won’t remove it. Bleach fumes are extremely bad for your lungs.

What caused this and can we prevent it in the future?
Your mold problem was caused by water or high humidity. The water leak (plumbing or rainwater intrusion) must be stopped and the humidity should be kept at or below 40%. Mold can start growing after 24-48 hrs of a water problem. The mold contamination may stay hidden within the walls, under the floor, or above the ceiling.

After killing and removing all molded areas, a quality coating solution topical sealant is applied to help assure humidity won’t cause mold ever in the future.
