Basement Mold Removal in Marlboro, NJ

The Mold Solutions Team at Cowleys went out on a service call for a homeowner in Marlboro, NJ who was having an issue with mold growing in his basement. We equipped our personal protective equipment and began our inspection. As we inspected we discovered that the basement had water intrusion through the foundation wall behind a sheetrock wall, which was causing mold. We informed the homeowner that he would need to take care of the water issue prior to our mold treatment. The homeowner had a basement waterproofing company come in and take care of the water intrusion issue. Now it is our turn.  

Even though the drywall was removed by the waterproofing company we needed to treat the existing wood framing and the rest of the basement walls to kill any mold spores. We first treated with Maps 1, which an EPA-registered anti-microbial solution that is specifically designed to kill active mold growth. We then scrubbed away the surface mold and applied MAPS 2, a patented polymer sealant that encapsulates the existing dead mold and prevents future mold from growing. Now the risk of dangerous mold growth, both now and in the future, has been removed.
