How to Prepare for a Mold Remediation Visit in Downtown Lubbock
Preparation makes the visit quicker and more thorough. The exact list depends on the problem and the rooms involved, and it is confirmed with you before the visit. The general steps below apply to most homes in Downtown Lubbock.
- Clear access to the rooms and areas involved — move furniture, rugs and boxes away from the affected areas where you can do so safely — so the visit can start without moving things on the day.
- Note when the mold was first seen, where it is, and whether there was a leak or a flood before it appeared. A short note of dates and signs helps the visit start in the right place.
- Do not disturb large areas of mold growth, and keep children and pets away from the affected areas until the visit.
- Move valuables, electronics and soft furnishings away from the affected areas where you can do so safely, and take photographs of the visible mold and the damp areas before anything is moved.
- If the mold is in a rental, tell the landlord or property manager as well — the visit is easier to plan when the person responsible for the property knows what is happening.
- Most Texas homes do not have a basement — if the mold is in one, say so on the call, because the visit is planned differently for the few homes that do.
If the mold covers a large area, do not try to clean it yourself before the visit — the EPA suggests that mold covering about 10 square feet or more is best left to a professional, and disturbing it can spread it further.
