The process
The basement mold removal process in Union City, MI
Inspect
Moisture meters and thermal imaging locate water paths along foundation walls, sump pits, and window wells, identifying the source beyond visible mold.
Contain
The basement area is isolated with containment, and negative air pressure with HEPA filtration is established before remediation begins.
Remove
Affected porous materials like drywall and insulation are removed and bagged. Concrete and sound framing are cleaned and treated.
Dry
Air movers and dehumidifiers run until moisture readings meet specific drying goals, not just until the area appears dry.
Verify
Original moisture sources are rechecked before completion to ensure no hidden seepage remains in the basement structure.
