Elite Moisture Solutions of Durham was called to this inspection due to the customer’s concern about visible mold growth and elevated moisture levels inside the home. The customer shared that the home had recently experienced water damage due to a leak in the second floor bathroom. The customer also shared that a qualified restoration company was called to address the water loss. The Elite Moisture Solutions of Durham inspector found evidence that the water damage restoration was not completed correctly. The inspector identified water staining and mold growth under the laminate flooring that was removed during the inspection.

As part of the Elite Moisture Solutions of Durham mold remediation process, the team removed all damaged flooring throughout the first floor of the property, hand cleaned all surfaces with an antimicrobial solution and HEPA vacuums, and placed air scrubbers throughout the first floor to remove mold particles in the air. A post air test was performed to confirm that the project was successful and to provide the homeowner with peace of mind.
