There are five degrees of mold remediation that you should utilize to determine whether you should hire a professional mold remediation firm or handle the problem on your own.

Level 1 Mold Remediation – Small, isolated area (10 square feet or less)
You may take care of the mold contamination on your own at this stage, saving you the money you would have spent on a mold remediation company. Tiny infections that are generally seen on ceilings and small parts of the wall are classified in this category. Regular building maintenance can help with mold cleanup, but workers should remember to wear personal safety equipment such as gloves, disposable respirators, and eye protection. The work area and nearby areas should be free of people. Prior to treatment, containment might be accomplished by merely spraying the contaminated area. To avoid additional mold growth, clean the area with a moist cloth and remove any things that cannot be cleansed from the house. Allow the area to dry fully.

Level 2 – Isolated sections of medium size (10-30 square feet)
When dealing with mold cleanup at this level, the same precautions that were taken at level 1 should be followed. After placing all mold-contaminated things in plastic bags that are tightly sealed, the mold-contaminated area should be carefully cleaned with a moist cloth and vacuumed with a HEPA vacuum.

Level 3 – Isolated large portions (30- 100 square feet)
Mold contaminates spots on the wall at this level, thus the same measures that were used in levels 1 and 2 should be used in level 3. Use plastic sheets to restrict all air movements around the work area and places nearby in addition to these precautions. All occupants in the work area, as well as the surrounding region, must vacate. All of the regions should be absolutely dry and mold-free.
