Getting Basement Mold Out of a Linden Home

Getting Basement Mold Out of a Linden Home

May 13, 2022

Our top priority is always the health and safety of our clients. We dealt with mold growth and the resulting mold damage during a recent job in Linden, NJ.



Mold in the basement made any activity in the space impossible and triggered allergies for the homeowners. The home faced an increased risk for damages if the mold remained for an extended period.


At The Restoration Group, we recognize how untreated mold causes breathing issues, structural damage, and water damage. We acted quickly and performed the necessary mold removal for the Linden, NJ home.

Project Description

The goal of this project was to deal with the presence of mold and execute successful mold removal in Linden, NJ. We went into a Linden home to solve the issue of accumulated mold in the basement. Areas of the basement provided conditions where mold thrives.


We realized the mold had begun to travel across the floors during the inspection. It went up the walls and had the potential to climb upward into the home. We isolated the area to prevent spread and contamination.

Project Solution

We performed a mold inspection to understand the growth and severity of the mold. A unit in the basement appeared to be surrounded by mold that covered the walls. The mold damage was very severe and most prominent on the floors and the walls.


We first cleared the area. Any unsalvageable and mold-covered items were promptly bagged and removed from the basement. It was best to capture and remove mold from the basement so that it didn’t spread upwards.


Our team suited up to protect themselves from exposure. The walls with mold in or on them were covered to close off the affected areas. That prevented the spread of mold spores so they couldn’t get outside the space. It also prevented escalating the mold problem by cross-contamination.


Next, we disinfected and thoroughly cleaned beyond just surface levels throughout the basement. This deep-cleaning prevented allergens, dirt, debris, and mold from being left behind. 


We finally dealt with moisture problems which give mold the ideal conditions to thrive. We dehumidified the air in the crawl spaces and tight areas where we usually see mold bloom. Improving air flow to these areas helped establish a baseline to prevent mold development in the future.

Project Results

The completed results of this successful project were a basement free of mold and satisfied clients. We assessed the visible mold samples at the beginning and end of the project. We deemed the home safe according to our health and safety standards. We only finished when we were 100% sure the home was free from dangerous mold spores.



When we found mold in the basement, it was vital to perform mold removal and testing as soon as possible. Our mold remediation technicians ensured each area in the basement had no remaining mold at the end. We got this Linden home’s basement back to healthy conditions.
