Mold Remediation in Fresno, CA
We've worked on mold remediation jobs across Fresno long enough to know what tends to break here, when, and why. We work clean, leave the area better than we found it, and stick around to test the repair before we drive off.
A recent mold remediation call
Recent Fresno job: black mold growing on drywall behind a wallpapered bathroom in a any era; older homes more vulnerable home. We S520 containment, removed all affected drywall and tile substrate, treated framing with antimicrobial, post-remediation verification testing passed after diagnosing slow leak from a shower valve had been wetting the drywall for 18+ months. Cost ran $340 — pretty middle-of-the-road for that fix.
What you're paying for
Mold work follows IICRC S520 protocol: contain the area first to prevent spore spread, then remediate. Skipping containment is the #1 mistake unlicensed mold contractors make.
We set up plastic barrier walls around the affected area, run negative air pressure with HEPA-filtered air scrubbers (typically 4-6 air changes per hour), and the crew works in PPE inside the contained area.
Visible mold growth on porous materials (drywall, carpet, padding, fabric) is removed and bagged. Hard surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and treated with EPA-registered antimicrobials.
After remediation, we run post-remediation verification (PRV) testing — usually third-party — to confirm the affected area returns to baseline.
