Mould Assessment and Remediation

Effective Remediation Strategies

Based on the assessment findings, Caldera Environmental develops tailored remediation plans to address mould contamination effectively. Our remediation strategies include:

  • Source Control and Moisture Management: Identifying and eliminating the sources of moisture is crucial to preventing mould growth. This may involve repairing leaks, improving ventilation, and implementing moisture control measures.

  • Containment and Removal: We use industry-approved methods to contain and remove mould-contaminated materials safely. This includes the use of HEPA filtration, negative air pressure systems, and protective barriers to prevent the spread of mould spores.

  • Cleaning and Disinfection: Thorough cleaning and disinfection of affected areas are essential to eliminate mould and prevent recurrence. We use specialised cleaning agents and techniques to ensure effective mould removal.

  • Post-Remediation Verification: After remediation, we conduct post-remediation verification to ensure that the mould has been effectively removed and that the area is safe for occupancy. This includes air and surface sampling to confirm the absence of mould spores.
