WARNING: Documented medical research shows that mold contamination can cause serious health problems for you and your family. The condition can be considered dangerous for anyone with allergies, asthma or respiratory problems. Also at risk are infants, seniors and anyone with a compromised immune system such as AIDS� patients, people recovering from surgical procedures, etc. Mold can become a problem in any structure, building, any climate and any geographic region.
If you think you have a problem, don�t wait -- call now for an inspection. Coburn Restoration are experts in mold remediation and removal.
1. Shut off the water. Find the water main or valve closest to the source and turn it off.
2. Seal off the area and avoid it.
3. Call Coburn Restoration for professional help.
4. Vacate premises if respiration difficulties arise or if children or elderly are in the contaminated areas.
1. DO NOT move air over mold.
2. DO NOT let children or immune compromised individuals near moldy areas.
3. DO NOT run your (HVAC) heating, ventilating and air conditioning system, since you will distribute the contamination.
 The first step we took was to remove the water heater, the pedestal and unaffected drywall. Following the removal, this is what was visible.
 We set up containment to prevent further and more significant spreading of mold spores throughout the home.
 We removed the moldy building material within the containment using negative air pressure to further control spore contamination and a HEPA filtration system. During this process our technicians wore personal protective gear including respirators. The photos show the drying and air filtration equipment and mold-free two by fours.
 These photos show the clean wooden structure sealed with Kilz primer along with the furnace sitting above the two hollow air inlet cavities formerly full of mold.
 This final photo shows the completed rebuild of the linen cabinet to the left of the furnace.
