Mold removal & remediation in Fort Collins

Found mold? Here is what happens next

Deal with the urgent part first. If there is an active leak or standing water, shut off the water source and keep people and pets out of that room. If someone in the house has asthma or a strong reaction to the smell, close the door and stay out until it is contained.

Then call us for a free on-site inspection. We come out, find the moisture source, use meters and thermal imaging to see how far it has spread behind surfaces, and give you a written scope with a fixed price. Nothing gets torn out until you have approved that number.

Once you approve, a typical single-room remediation is one to three days on site: containment goes up, air scrubbers run, mold-damaged material comes out in sealed bags, everything left is cleaned and HEPA-vacuumed, and the structure is dried back to normal moisture levels.

Types of mold removal we handle in Fort Collins

Black mold removal

"Black mold" usually means Stachybotrys, which grows on constantly damp paper-faced drywall, ceiling tile and wood. It tends to show up after a slow, long-running leak rather than a one-time spill. We treat it like any other mold job, but we are careful with containment because disturbing heavy growth releases a lot of spores at once. If you are worried about the health side, we can test before and after.

Attic mold removal

Attic mold is common on the north and west sides of Fort Collins and out toward the foothills. Snowmelt backs up under shingles, or a bathroom fan vents into the attic instead of through the roof, and the plywood sheathing grows a dark haze over winter. We remediate the sheathing and framing, then talk through the ventilation or roofing fix so it does not return.

Crawl space mold removal

Older Midtown and rural properties around Wellington, Laporte and Eaton often have vented crawl spaces that pull humid summer air across cool joists, and mold forms underneath the house. We remove affected insulation, clean the framing and subfloor, dry the space, and can advise on a vapor barrier or encapsulation.

Basement mold removal

Basements in Old Town, Campus West and City Park were often finished years after the house was built, over stone or block foundations with no moisture barrier. Water wicks through the foundation, and mold grows behind finished walls and baseboards. We remove the affected drywall and framing, address the moisture path, clean, and dry the space thoroughly.

Mold after water damage

When mold follows a burst supply line, a failed water heater, an ice dam or a sewer backup, speed matters, because mold can start within 24 to 48 hours. We can coordinate with your water-damage restoration and document the moisture source and timeline for an insurance claim.

Commercial and rental-property mold

Landlords, property managers and small commercial buildings have their own pressures: tenant health complaints, habitability rules, and turnaround time between tenants. We work around occupied units, provide written scopes and clearance documentation, and schedule to minimize downtime.
