Your home is normally dry - much dryer than outside, and therefore mould (mold) free. After flood damage this changes. Mould (mold) spores are all around - and mould (mold) loves a little moisture. Mould (mold) spores especially love dark places where water may be trapped and where the mould (mold) spores can quickly multiply.
Your home is normally clean but dirty flood water or
sewage changes this, finding its way into every small
crevice - the perfect breeding ground for toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold).
A building containing toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold) is an unhealthy building and toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold) can trigger asthma and other sickness. A dirty or mould (mold) containing building brings infection risk, especially for anyone with a suppressed immune system.
We understand the risks associated with toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold). We will quickly make the property safer for all who may visit following flood damage.
We will start each flood damage or sewage project by multicleaning
to remove unhealthy material, and applying a
sanitising treatment. To ensure a satisfactory result we
then carry out a cleanliness test (ATP).
Reducing humidity is the next action urgently required -
moisture can soon be absorbed from the air into
materials not directly affected. This encourages
toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold) growth.
Then we pay attention to releasing trapped moisture.
• under floating (insulated) floors
• behind plasterboard and in insulation
• behind fitted cupboards
The building quickly becomes dry and safe again and free from toxic mould (mold) or mould (mold). Ready
for redecoration and other repairs.
A dry building is a safe building and Richfords never
compromise on safety
