Application: Residential

When a homeowner’s power of attorney in Coram, NY, reached out to Bright Side Restoration, the property was experiencing visible mold growth on the second floor due to a prior water damage issue. Our team promptly responded to assess the situation and begin the necessary remediation steps. Upon inspection, it was determined that the mold developed as a result of moisture from earlier water intrusion on the upper level, which had not been properly addressed at the time.

We began with a thorough mold inspection to evaluate the affected areas and identify the extent of contamination. To limit the spread of mold spores during the process, we set up containment barriers and used negative air pressure systems with HEPA filtration. This helped isolate the impacted rooms from the rest of the home during remediation.

Our next priority was to dry out the remaining moisture. High-powered air movers and industrial-grade dehumidifiers were deployed to stabilize humidity levels and dry the surrounding materials. This step was crucial in halting the progression of mold and preparing the structure for safe material removal.

Once drying goals were achieved, our crew removed damaged drywall and insulation from the affected spaces. All materials were handled in accordance with industry protocols, and the exposed surfaces were carefully cleaned. We used HEPA vacuums to remove residual particles and applied antimicrobial cleaning agents to help inhibit mold regrowth on remaining surfaces. Throughout this process, air filtration devices continued running to help maintain air quality.

In addition to mold remediation, our team also completed a biohazard cleanup in select areas that had been affected by the water event. This included cleaning and sanitizing surfaces that may have been exposed to potentially hazardous materials.

As part of our packout services, we carefully relocated personal belongings from impacted areas to a secure space while work was underway. This protected the homeowner’s items from further exposure and allowed our team to work efficiently within the space.

By the end of the project, the home was thoroughly dried, cleaned, and ready for reconstruction. The power of attorney was kept informed throughout the process and expressed satisfaction with our communication and professionalism.
