Post Remediation Clearance in Irvine, Orange County, CA
Post Remediation Clearance, Why Do They Fail?
Besides health concerns and the dangerous effects of Mold on your immune system, Mold can cause a significant amount of financial loss and property damage.
IICRC Certified Remediation Professionals understand mold and mold growth. They have the highest training, certification, and equipment to remediate the mold in your home or business. Unfortunately, many homeowners and businesses have been victims of false advertisements or lured into FREE Mold Inspection, Mold Testing, or Mold Remediation Clearance in order to be financially scammed to mold remediation by companies that are not properly or at all certified.
- It is against the CODE OF ETHICS and CONFLICT OF INTEREST to offer both Mold Remediation and Post Remediation Clearance or to insist or pressure the consumer to use their preferred mold testing company to conduct the Post Remediation Clearance.
- Noncertified or improperly certified remediation companies do not offer proper and effective remediation. They cut corners for a higher personal profit. They offer a cheaper price and faster turnaround time in order to get your business. The affected area is not contained, dried, and cleaned out properly and that is why they use their own preferred post-remediation clearance testing companies so it can pass the test and provide false results.
- Always remember that an ACAC Certified UNBIASED 3rd Party Mold Testing company should conduct your Clearance.
- It is crucial that you are aware of the accreditation of the laboratory that will be used for your Post Remediation Clearance Testing. Only an AIHA Accredited laboratory should conduct such an analysis. Many Mold Testing companies use a shortcut and use cheap and nonaccredited laboratories. This will result in compromised false results, cross-contamination, and the comeback of mold at a later time.
- Improper mold remediation will result in failed Post Remediation Clearance. This will cost you, the property owner, or the tenant multiple times of expense and it will cross-contaminate your property and the results can be in the tens of thousands of dollars of cleanup and the potential of mold resurfacing at a later time.
- Be aware per IICRC S520 during the mold remediation no antimicrobial, fungicidal coatings, or sealants shall be applied to the affected area. Only after completion of POST REMEDIATION CLEARANCE/VERIFICATION, the remediator might apply such material. Unfortunately, this a common practice upon nonqualified remediation companies, as they try to cover up and hide the mold and finish the job faster to move on to their next project. Any such coatings will hide and prevent the Mold Testing company to visually detect and report the findings.
