Whew...
Re: Your first reply.
"Uh TWEAK, I think you're TWEAKING!”
I realize that you stated,
“Here's what I think is the best approach - but be forewarned this is MY OPINION ONLY.” … “If you don't want to do this, hire a professional mold remediation firm.”
After reading the steps/tools/chemicals etc., you mentioned, I certainly think that hiring a professional mold remediation firm would be
wayyyy cheaper than your method. I mean according to you post, I would have to purchase…
1. 6 mil plastic and a poop load of tape to “seal off” the full area.
2. A respirator, not dust mask, as well as gloves, eye protection. Okay, so most folks have some gloves.
3. A forced air system, which protects lungs and eyes. But, isn't that already covered in #2 above?? Yep…
not probably, we are talking
overkill!! Nevertheless, you do use it to achieve you mold clean-up goals.
4. In addition you state that you have also used a NIOSH N-95 mask!! See #2 again!
5. New carpet since you don't try and save it.
6. Steel wire brushes.
7. A poop load of bleach
8. New sheet rock, vapor barriers, studs, sub-floors and new flooring if damaged, YIKES!! And lastly…
9. Or whatever. Now that’s way too “wide open”!
Lets see, all I need to add is,
doors, windows, paint and
furniture and I got me a
NEW HOUSE!!
Therefore, let me repeat my first statement…
“TWEAK, I think you're definitely TWEAKING!"
Now go relax, or go out and paint a dozen cars!
Chill dude, chill. LOL
