Complete removal starts at the source.
Mold doesn't just damage surfaces — it keeps growing as long as the moisture feeding it remains. Our certified team contains the spread, removes mold at the source, and corrects the moisture problem behind it, so the growth doesn't return.
Why professional mold remediation matters.
Mold is a living organism that spreads through microscopic spores, and it only needs moisture and time to take hold. Within 24 to 48 hours of a leak, flood, or humidity problem, it can begin colonizing drywall, insulation, flooring, and the hidden spaces behind your walls — long before you ever see a stain.
Mold also spreads well beyond what's visible. By the time you see a stain on drywall, growth is usually established in the cavity behind it, in insulation, or in subfloor material. That's why remediation is about locating and removing the full extent of the colony, not wiping down a surface.
Store-bought cleaners only treat what you can see — they don't reach mold growing inside porous materials, and scrubbing dry mold can actually release more spores into the air. Our IICRC-certified process contains the affected area, filters the air, removes contaminated materials, and — most importantly — finds and corrects the moisture source feeding the growth, so the problem doesn't simply return.
If you have health concerns about mold exposure, talk to your doctor. Our role is the building: containment, removal, and moisture correction.
Our proven mold remediation process.
We follow industry-standard remediation steps to remove mold safely and keep it from spreading to clean areas of your home or business.
Inspection & Assessment
We identify the type and extent of growth and trace the moisture source using moisture meters and thermal imaging — including the mold you can't see.
Containment
We seal off the work area with containment barriers and negative air pressure so spores can't spread to clean parts of your property during removal.
Air Filtration
HEPA air scrubbers and filtration capture airborne spores and microscopic particles, keeping them from migrating into unaffected areas of the property.
Mold Removal
We remove mold and affected porous materials, then HEPA-vacuum and clean salvageable surfaces to eliminate the active colony.
Cleaning & Sanitizing
Antimicrobial treatments, deodorizing, and contents cleaning restore a clean, finished space and address lingering musty odors.
Moisture Control & Restoration
We correct the moisture source, dry the structure, and rebuild what was removed — because fixing the cause is the only way to keep mold from returning.
Trusted mold remediation experts.
Mold problems can feel overwhelming, but the right team makes recovery straightforward. Our certified specialists handle every stage — from the first inspection to a clean, verified finish.
- Containment First: We isolate the affected area before any removal begins, so spores never spread to clean rooms.
- HEPA Air Filtration: Industrial air scrubbers capture airborne spores and particulate throughout the project, and keep them from migrating into unaffected areas.
- Source Removal: We remove mold and the contaminated porous materials it grows in — not just the surface staining.
- Antimicrobial Treatment: We clean, sanitize, and deodorize salvageable surfaces to neutralize residue and musty odors.
- Moisture-Source Correction: We find and fix the leak or humidity problem feeding the mold, so it doesn't grow back.
- Documentation & Verification: Every step is documented for your insurance, and we can coordinate third-party clearance testing on request.
Mold remediation

peace of mind.
My water heater started leaking and caused mold to grow. I was given a thorough inspection and told exactly what had to be done. The project manager oversaw the whole project and made sure all my needs were met.
OCI does fantastic work. They were at my house on short notice with a team of professionals. They settled everything with our insurance adjuster and made what could have been a difficult situation very easy for my family.
Since the first call upon discovering a water leak and mold growth in our pantry, OCI have been a joy to work with in an event that otherwise is largely a headache. From the start, Dustin was thorough and patient with me as he explained the extent of the problem and what the likely solutions looked like going forward. In addition to a helpful staff, one of the reasons we chose OCI for this job was that the offer both mold remediation and reconstruction, something that many other companies didn't offer. Although my project is still in remediation phase and not yet completed, the professionalism and personalities of OCI have been worthy of a great review. Thanks to Dustin, Adam, Juan, and Jordan for their efforts so far, and look forward to having a mold free home in the near future.
