Mold Remediation

If a mold is encountered, Carolina Consolidated Services is a fully capable and is NAMP certified to remediate all mold. We can handle all of your contamination issues, and have the ability to offer on-site testing and can verify the results with an independent lab to ensure the structure is safe to occupy.

  3. Remove any contents that are to be preserved.

  4. Wet vacuum (in the case of porous materials, some mold spores/fragments will remain in the material but will not grow if the material is completely dried. Steam cleaning may be an alternative for carpets and some upholstered furniture.

  6. Clean all vent registers and wall plates.

  7. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuum after the material has been thoroughly dried. Dispose of the contents of the HEPA vacuum in well-sealed plastic bags.

  8. Remove damaged materials and seal in plastic bags while in containment, if present. Dispose of as normal waste.

  9. Utilize forced air to dry the wet areas. HEPA vacuum area after it is dried.
