The new way to kill mold and keep it from coming back.
Serving Central NJ, Middletown, Woodbridge, Toms River
A homeowner in Middletown, NJ contacted Mold Solutions by Cowleys complaining of mold growth in his family room. He mentioned that the upstairs toilet had a leak in it and flooded the bathroom. Although the homeowner had the leak repaired, it wasn’t caught in time and mold had developed.
I equipped my personal protective equipment and began my inspection. Within minutes I spotted the mold growth on the ceiling. As I took a closer look I noticed that the drywall was saturated and damaged from the leak, meaning I would have to cut out the damaged portion. I spoke to the homeowner beforehand and mentioned that I would need to remove a portion of his ceiling. He agreed it was necessary and informed me that, since he was a contractor, he will replace the hole in the ceiling once I’m done.
I cut out the damaged drywall and began treating the entire room with an EPA register solution called MAPS. MAPS, which stands for Mold Abatement Polymer Solutions, is a two-component antimicrobial solution specially designed to not only kill mold but prevent any future mold from growing. The first component of MAPS I applied was MAPS 1, which targets the mold on a cellular level and kills it instantly. Once the solution dried I applied the second component — MAPS 2 which leaves a residual on the treated area that encapsulates the mold and is moisture sensitive to prevent any future mold from growing.
