Professional Mold Testing, Removal & Remediation Services
Professional & Affordable. 7 Days a Week. Serving Maryland, D.C. & Northern Virginia.
Mold in your home isn't just unpleasant - it's a serious health and safety concern. Whether it's hiding in your air ducts, growing on walls after water damage, or thriving in damp areas you can't see, mold needs to be properly identified and safely removed by trained professionals.
At Pure Air Duct Cleaning Services, we specialize in comprehensive mold remediation throughout Maryland, Virginia, and D.C. Our technicians are certified by Aerosol Monitoring & Analysis, Inc. (AMA) to properly diagnose and treat mold, a critical qualification that many duct cleaning and restoration companies in our area don't have.
Why Mold Certification Matters
Here's the truth: treating mold incorrectly can make the problem worse. Without proper training, companies can misdiagnose the type of mold, use the wrong treatment methods, or fail to address the root cause, which means the mold comes back quickly, sometimes within weeks.
Our AMA certification means our technicians know how to:
Accurately identify different types of mold
Determine the source of the problem (not just treat the symptoms)
Use the right removal methods for each situation
Prevent mold from returning
This expertise makes a real difference in keeping your home safe and mold-free long-term.
Where We Find Mold
As air duct cleaning specialists, we often discover mold growing inside duct systems and AC units where homeowners can't see it. Every time your heating or cooling system runs, it can spread mold spores throughout your home. But mold doesn't just grow in ducts, we provide complete mold remediation services for any area of your home, including:
Air ducts and HVAC systems
Walls, ceilings, and floors
Basements and crawl spaces
Bathrooms and kitchens
Areas affected by water damage or flooding
Attics and other moisture-prone spaces
Our Mold Remediation Process
When you call Pure Air for mold concerns, here's what happens:
Thorough Inspection & Testing: We carefully inspect your property to locate all mold growth and identify the source of moisture causing it. We use professional equipment like moisture meters and infrared cameras to find hidden problems.
Honest Assessment: We'll explain exactly what we found, what type of mold you're dealing with, and what treatment is needed. We'll work with you to find the right solution for your situation and budget - no upselling, just honest recommendations.
Containment: Before we start removal, we set up containment barriers to prevent mold spores from spreading to other areas of your home during the remediation process.
Air Filtration: We use HEPA filtration systems to continuously clean the air and capture mold spores during the entire remediation process.
Safe Mold Removal: Our certified technicians use proven, safe methods to remove mold from all affected surfaces and materials. We follow strict protocols to ensure complete removal without putting your family at risk.
Cleaning & Sanitization: After removal, we thoroughly clean and sanitize all affected areas to eliminate any remaining mold residue.
Moisture Control: We address the moisture problem that caused the mold in the first place. Without fixing the source, mold will just come back.
Restoration: We restore your space to its original condition, making any necessary repairs to walls, floors, or other structures.
Prevention Solutions: Depending on your situation, we may recommend additional protection like dehumidifiers or, for duct system mold, professional-grade UV light installation.
UV Light Installation for Duct System Mold
If we find mold in your air ducts or AC unit, we can install UV lights as an additional layer of protection to help prevent mold from returning. But here's an important distinction: we don't use the cheap, generic UV lights you might find online or that some companies install.
Our certification and experience have taught us that basic UV lights are too simple to be effective long-term. Instead, we use professional-grade UV light systems from well-known, reputable manufacturers that are specifically designed for HVAC mold prevention. These high-quality UV systems provide reliable, lasting protection that actually works.
Water Damage Restoration
Mold and water damage often go hand-in-hand. If you've experienced flooding, leaks, or any type of water intrusion, we provide complete water damage restoration services to dry out your property, prevent mold growth, and restore your space to safe, livable condition.
The key is acting fast - mold can start growing within 24-48 hours of water exposure. The sooner we can address water damage, the better chance we have of preventing mold problems entirely.
