The Importance of Mold Remediation
Mold loves moisture, so it can grow anywhere with a warm and humid environment. Mold and mildew occur can result from a variety of problems that increase humidity, such as:
- Humid weather
- Leaky roofs or pipes
- Flooding and water damage
- Poor ventilation
- Frequent condensation
Mold isn’t just unsightly—it’s dangerous. Mold spreads very quickly and can cause significant damage to a building. Severe mold will weaken wooden structural components, ruin plaster and drywall, and much more.
Mold may also cause respiratory problems and allergic reactions among employees and visitors to your facility, such as sneezing, itchy eyes or skin, wheezing and coughing, and other cold- and flu-like symptoms. Very bad cases of mold may cause more severe reactions like mold-induced asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Certain types of molds, such as black mold, are highly toxic to humans and can cause cancer, internal bleeding, or organ damage.
Mold’s rapid growth potential makes it even more important to remove the mold as soon as you realize it’s present. It can be difficult to remove with standard cleaning methods because spores hide in unseen spaces or below the surface of substrates. Mold removal via dry ice blasting is much more effective than simple surface cleaners.
Texas Dry Ice Blasting Mold Remediation Capabilities
Dry ice pellets are blasted through a hose via compressed air. As they make contact with the surface, they turn from solid to gas. That rapid expansion removes mold and leaves behind no secondary waste.
Dry ice mold remediation is a clean, environmentally safe alternative to chemical cleaners, which come with their own health and environmental risks—especially at the strength required for mold removal. Dry ice blasting is also a preferred alternative to sandblasting, which can be harsh and messy. It’s also superior to water blasting, which may leave moisture behind and lay a foundation upon which the mold can grow again.
Sand- and water-based blasting methods also require more downtime to clean the area or wait for the blasted surface to dry, which means higher labor costs. Dry ice blasting isn’t just a safer choice, it’s faster and more economical, too.
We offer comprehensive mold removal and remediation services, as well as dry ice blasting for other applications. For smaller projects or areas that require regular cleaning, you can rent or purchase a blast machine. We also maintain an inventory of used blast machines that may suit your needs.
