What to Know
Understanding Mold Growth
New York State Mold Protocol (Article 32)
New York State law requires mold inspection and mold remediation to be performed by separate licensed companies, which protects property owners from conflicts of interest. First, a licensed mold assessor inspects your property and writes a remediation plan. We can recommend trusted assessors working in the Troy area. Then, as a licensed remediation contractor, we execute that plan: containment, HEPA filtration, removal of affected materials, and antimicrobial treatment. Finally, the original assessor returns to verify clearance. Any contractor who offers to both inspect and remediate is violating New York State law.
Mold in Troy's Historic Brick Row Houses
Troy has one of the densest concentrations of 19th-century brick row houses in New York State. These buildings often have fieldstone basements that wick moisture year-round, original plaster walls that hide growth behind them, and original subfloors where mold spreads unseen. Hudson River humidity adds to chronic moisture conditions. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to find hidden colonies before they spread, then contain and remove them without damaging the original architectural details.
Mold in RPI Area and Multifamily Student Housing
Multifamily student housing around RPI often has chronic moisture issues from heavy use, shared walls, riser leaks, and aging mechanical systems. Tenant complaints, lease obligations, and indoor-air-quality concerns add pressure to resolve quickly. We coordinate with property managers and assessors to scope, contain, and remediate with minimal disruption.
After a Water Loss: Mold Prevention Window
Mold can begin colonizing wet materials in as little as 24 to 48 hours. If your property has had a burst pipe, sump pump failure, or sewer backup, getting the structure dried and treated fast is what prevents a water job from turning into a mold job. If the water event is recent, our water damage restoration and mold teams coordinate so you are not managing two contractors.
We Work With Your Insurance
Mold claims are handled carefully by insurance carriers and documentation matters. We bill in Xactimate, the industry-standard estimating software adjusters use, and we coordinate directly with your carrier and assessor.
How Mold Remediation Works in New York State
New York State requires that mold inspection and mold remediation be performed by separate companies. This prevents conflicts of interest and protects homeowners.
Hire a Licensed Mold Assessor
An independent NYS Licensed Mold Assessor inspects your property, conducts sampling, and writes a formal remediation protocol. We can recommend trusted mold assessors in the Capital Region and Hudson Valley.
Assessment Review and Quote
We review the mold assessment report, visit your property, and provide a detailed quote. The source of the moisture must be addressed before remediation begins, otherwise the mold will return. We can handle the repair ourselves or coordinate with plumbers or roofers to get it resolved.
Containment and Remediation
We set up containment barriers and negative air pressure systems to isolate the affected area. HEPA-filtered air scrubbers capture airborne spores. Contaminated materials are safely removed following the assessor's remediation plan and IICRC protocols, and all surfaces are treated with professional-grade antimicrobial agents.
Clearance and Restoration
Your mold assessor returns to perform clearance testing and confirm successful remediation. We then restore the space, including drywall, insulation, and paint, back to pre-loss condition.
