Commercial Mold Remediation

INX Indoor Air Quality

We have been proudly servicing Commercial & Municipal clients including hospitals, colleges, universities, school districts, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, hotels, nursing homes, and restaurants for over 20 years. During that time we have successfully remediated mold issues in thousands of buildings with the main goal of helping our customers and their clients breathe easy.

Schools, Colleges and Universities have been calling INX for over two decades to help them remediate mold in many areas of their facilities. We have successfully remediated mold in classrooms, libraries, auditoriums, dorm rooms, hotel rooms and many other areas within these buildings. We understand that mold is a delicate subject and the importance of effectively fixing a mold issue without causing alarm to students, faculty, employees or customers is of utmost importance.

Commercial Mold Remediation

The first and most important step within our proven mold remediation process is containment construction.

The purpose of the containment is to seal off the remediation area under negative pressure to minimize the potential for cross contamination to clean areas during the remediation process. These containments also double as a barrier from anyone who might still be working or operating within your building. We typically use opaque heavy plastic and temporary wood framing to construct these units so that anyone who is passing won’t be distracted by our operation or equipment. A HEPA (High efficiency Particulate Air) Air Scrubber is placed inside the containment and exhausts out to create a negative pressure differential in the containment. Our trained Mold Technicians have worked hundreds of jobs in the history of our operation under these circumstances and are familiar with the importance of being unnoticed.

Some of our happy customers include:

  • University of Delaware
  • Moravian College
  • Gettysburg College
  • West Chester University
  • Central Bucks School District
  • Meridian Bank
  • Kendal-Crosslands Communities
  • Inn at Penn
  • US Mint
  • QVC
  • AmeriHealth
  • Township of Marlboro

A common misconception

  • A common misconception about commercial remediation, should an indoor air quality issue arise, is that a facility or building must be closed down to remedy the problem. While this is true in some extreme cases, we understand that this is not realistic and operations must continue. INX Indoor Air Quality has been proud to service its commercial customers to help them breathe easier without impacting the current operations of their business.

The 1st step is always assessment.

  • Don’t guess, get someone who really knows what they’re doing from initial inspection through the final remediation process. With thousands of successful remediation jobs completed, we have seen it all and are confident that we can help you with your issue and can assist you in improving your indoor air quality quickly and effectively.

Containment Construction

The purpose of the containment is to seal off the remediation area under negative pressure to minimize the potential for cross contamination to clean areas during the remediation process. A HEPA (High efficiency Particulate Air) Air Scrubber is placed inside containment and exhausts out of the containment to create a negative pressure differential in the containment.

Contents Cleaning and Protection

If contents are not impacted, it can be simply removed from the mold remediation area or relocated away from the work area and sealed with heavy plastic during the remediation process. If contents are impacted (has mold growth or may have mold spore deposits), it should be cleaned or sealed in plastic for future cleaning.

Cutting & Demolition

During this phase of remediation, all contaminated building materials are removed and discarded. Some building materials which are not directly impacted may need to be removed to access hidden areas or voids for cleaning and/or remediation. After cutting, removal of all contaminated wall coverings, drywall, insulation and finish molding, carpeting, padding etc. and any other building materials is required.

Cleaning

All remaining surfaces are first HEPA vacuumed to remove bulk mold growth and mold spore deposits. All surfaces are then disinfected and wet wiped removing the residual mold, then HEPA vacuumed a second time. Any deep-rooted mold in wood structure may need to be abraded by wire brushing, sanding, blasting, or other means, then HEPA vacuumed and disinfected. 

Cleaning

Coating

Utilize an airless paint sprayer to coat remediated structural members with an anti-microbial or mold-proof coating. This coating is typically white or clear. Its purpose is to seal up any structural joints or crevices that cannot be thoroughly accessed for cleaning.

Clearance Testing

After cleaning of remediated surfaces is complete, all surfaces in the containment are HEPA vacuumed, wet wiped with disinfectant and HEPA vacuumed a final time to prepare area for inspection or Clearance testing.
