Mold Remediation Referrals
Visible mold, musty odors, or persistent moisture may indicate a problem requiring professional assessment. Call (703) 219-8117 or submit the online form to request a referral to an independent mold remediation provider serving Reston.
Reston Property Restoration is a referral and marketing service. We do not directly inspect, test, remediate, or guarantee the removal of mold. Any assessment, estimate, contract, payment, warranty, or work is handled directly between you and the provider.
Why Mold Should Be Assessed
Mold can grow where excess moisture is present and may damage drywall, insulation, flooring, wood, and other materials. Exposure can also cause symptoms in some people.
If you have health concerns, consult a qualified healthcare professional. If extensive mold, sewage, or unsafe structural conditions are present, avoid disturbing the affected area.
Services a Provider May Offer
Services depend on the provider, the source of moisture, and the affected materials.
Inspection and Assessment
A provider may inspect visible growth, identify moisture conditions, and determine the extent of affected materials.
Testing is not always necessary. When testing is recommended, ask whether an independent assessor should perform it.
Containment
Barriers and pressure-control equipment may be used to limit the movement of airborne particles during remediation.
Air Filtration
HEPA-filtered equipment may be used to capture airborne particles within the work area.
Cleaning and Material Removal
A provider may clean suitable surfaces and remove materials that cannot be adequately treated.
Drying and Moisture Control
Dehumidifiers, air movers, and repairs may be used to address moisture contributing to mold growth.
Post-Remediation Review
Depending on the project, a visual review or independent clearance assessment may be recommended.
Reston Property Restoration does not select the provider’s methods, equipment, products, or materials.
