The amount of time required for a mold removal project will vary based on the size of the mold infestation. Smaller patches of mold can sometimes be done in less than a day, whereas larger areas of mold may require several days to be properly remediated and ensure that the source of the mold is properly dealt with.
The most dangerous kind of mold is black mold, sometimes referred to as toxic mold. This mold is especially hazardous to people's health, especially their respiratory system. No matter what kind of mold you have it is important to have this removed and the source corrected as soon as possible.
In most cases, insurance will cover some or all of the cost for a biohazard or crime scene cleanup. We will work with your insurance company to provide them with all the information that they need. As soon as you are aware of the incident, contact our team and also speak with your insurance.
Your insurance may cover the cost of mold remediation if it is in conjunction with a covered peril, such as a burst water pipe, firefighters putting on fire, or other covered situations. It is best to speak with our team as well as your insurance to know for sure if it will be covered.
When we come to evaluate a hoarding situation, we will be able to classify it according to what stage of hoarding the situation is. A level-one hoarding situation is almost like any normal household where you may hardly consider it to be a hoarding situation.
Level two hoarding situation is where the home shows little evidence of housekeeping and there may be light odors. Graduating to level three in the hoarding situation gets worse and some spaces are unusable in the home. Stronger odors are also more prevalent at this level. Where it starts to get very serious is at level four where there's likely insect infestation, rotting food on the counters or elsewhere, And may even have structural issues with the home.
This stage of hoarding is the worst when there are no utilities any longer, and animal or human feces or waste is present. There is a danger of fire hazards or being trapped in the collapsing clutter.
