PowerBees Performs Mold Remediation forBasement Mold in Natick

John Adams • September 16, 2016

Mr. Yip called PowerBees for basement mold testing services after noticing a pungent moldy smell in his basement. Mr. Yip discovered a greenish-black section of carpet in the back corner of his basement was damp due to a leaky window. Additionally, someone in his family had left organic foodstuffs nearby which facilitated rapid mold growth in the area.

Upon receiving the call from Mr. Yip, PowerBees – a mold testing and mold remediation company in Natick -- was able to send a licensed and certified mold inspector on the following day who performed an initial assessment and took an air sample for the purpose of confirming the type of mold present. The air sample was processed within the typical timeframe of three to five business days and confirmed the presence of Aspergillus and dangerous Stachybotrys spores. Mr. Yip agreed to the estimate provided by PowerBees and scheduled the mold remediation process to begin as quickly as possible.

Natick Mold Remediation Company to the Rescue

The Natick mold removal company started the process by sealing the basement per IICRC standards and installing dehumidifiers and air scrubbers to reduce any wayward airborne mold spores in the basement level which could potentially have been harmful to Mr. Yip and his family. The PowerBees mold remediation team removed the affected materials and used HEPA vacuums and antimicrobial treatments to eliminate surface spores and fully mitigate any lingering mold issues. When the job was completed, Mr. Yip expressed his gratitude to the Natick mold removal company for helping to make his home safe for his family.
