Mold Removal vs Mold Remediation
It's important to understand the difference between mold removal and mold remediation. Mold removal refers specifically to the process of physically removing visible mold from surfaces and materials. However, mold remediation encompasses a more comprehensive approach, which includes:
- Inspection of the affected areas
- Mold testing to identify the type of mold present
- Mold removal from contaminated materials
- Dehumidification to remove excess moisture that encourages mold growth
- Fixing the source of the mold(leaks, poor ventilation, etc.) to prevent it from returning
At Rapid Restoration of Portland, we take the extra steps necessary to ensure that the root cause of mold growth is addressed, not just the mold itself.
Black Mold Removal
Black mold, or Stachybotrys chartarum, is a particularly dangerous type of mold that thrives in areas with excessive moisture. It poses significant health risks and requires specialized attention. At Rapid Restoration of Portland, we use a careful, multi-step process to remove black mold safely and effectively.
Our Black Mold Removal Process:
- Mold Inspection : We assess the type of mold, the affected materials, and the extent of contamination to devise the best removal plan.
- Isolation and Containment: The affected area is sealed off with plastic sheeting to prevent the spread of mold spores to other parts of the property.
- Mold Removal: Visible mold is physically removed from all contaminated surfaces.
- Cleaning and Disinfection: We clean and disinfect the area using anti-fungal solutions to kill any remaining spores and prevent regrowth.
- Inspection and Post-Removal Assessment: A final inspection ensures all mold has been removed, and we monitor for signs of mold regrowth.
Mold Removal Cost
The cost of mold removal varies depending on the size of the affected area, the type of mold, and the severity of the contamination. On average, mold removal can range from $2.50 to $20 per square foot. The costs can increase if the mold is widespread if structural repairs are required, or if specialized treatments are needed for particular types of mold.
At Rapid Restoration of Portland, we work directly with your insurance company to ensure you get the most comprehensive coverage possible. We'll document the issue thoroughly, providing your insurer with the necessary reports to maximize your claims coverage.

Mold Remediation vs Mold Removal
Mold removal is a part of the mold remediation process. It focuses on removing the mold and affected materials from your property. Mold remediation, however, is a broader process that includes mold removal, addressing the underlying moisture issue, and preventing future mold growth.
When is Mold Remediation Required?
Mold remediation is necessary when there is visible mold spreading throughout the property or when there is a moisture source fueling the mold growth. Remediation ensures the mold is completely removed and future growth is prevented.
How Long Does Mold Remediation Take?
Mold remediation typically takes one to five days. However, for larger or more complex infestations, the process could take several weeks to ensure complete removal and restoration of your property.
