The actual work
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.
Mold Remediation in Indianapolis — what's typical here
Indianapolis's housing market has us seeing a lot of move-in inspections and "the previous owner did what?" calls. We sort them out.
Most of our Indianapolis mold remediation jobs come from older neighborhoods, where the housing stock just has more failure points.
What a typical call looks like
Last spring we got a call from a homeowner near the historic core Indianapolis. Black mold growing on drywall behind a wallpapered bathroom. Diagnosis: slow leak from a shower valve had been wetting the drywall for 18+ months. We S520 containment, removed all affected drywall and tile substrate, treated framing with antimicrobial, post-remediation verification testing passed, ran the test, and were out the door in in one trip. Total: $754 including parts.
