Mold Remediation in Dallas–Fort Worth

Mold after a water leak, flood, or slow drip doesn’t wait — and neither do we. If you’ve spotted mold, smell a musty odor, or just had water damage, New Armor Restoration will assess the situation, contain the spread, and walk you through what happens next. As a Texas-licensed mold remediation company (License #RCO1728) and an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm, we do the work to standard and document it for your claim. And because we’re a full-service restoration company, one team handles everything — from contents pack-out to the final repairs — so you’re never juggling multiple contractors. Call (469) 885-7663 for a rapid response, day or night.

Our Mold Remediation Process

As a Texas-licensed mold remediation company (License #RCO1728) with IICRC-certified technicians, we follow the industry’s IICRC S520 remediation standard — and because we’re full-service, we see the job through from the first inspection to putting your property back together:

1. Inspection & moisture mapping. Moisture meters and thermal imaging pinpoint the source and the full extent — not just what’s visible.
2. Containment. Sealed barriers and negative air pressure keep spores from migrating to clean areas of your property.
3. Contents pack-out & evaluation. We inventory and protect your belongings, move out what needs it, and assess what can be restored versus replaced.
4. HEPA air filtration. Commercial HEPA air scrubbers run throughout the work to capture airborne spores.
5. Removal & HEPA cleaning. Affected materials are removed to IICRC S520, and surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and cleaned.
6. Antimicrobial treatment. Cleaned surfaces are treated to discourage regrowth.
7. Structural drying & moisture-source correction. We dry the structure and fix the underlying water source so the problem doesn’t return.
8. Independent post-remediation verification. We coordinate third-party clearance so you get an unbiased all-clear — not us grading our own work.
9. Reconstruction. We put it all back together — drywall, paint, flooring, and finishes — so one accountable team sees the job through start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly should mold be handled? As soon as possible. Mold can spread within 24–48 hours, so the faster the moisture source is corrected and the area contained, the smaller the damage.

Will my insurance cover mold? It depends on your policy and the cause of the water damage. We document everything to support your claim, but coverage decisions are made by your insurance carrier.

Can I stay in my home during remediation? Often yes, depending on the size and location of the affected area. We use containment and air filtration to protect the rest of your home, and advise you honestly based on your situation.

How long does mold remediation take? Small areas can be handled in a day or two; larger jobs take longer. After an on-site assessment we’ll give you a realistic timeline.

Do you also handle the water damage that caused the mold? Yes — we handle water extraction, structural drying, and the reconstruction that follows, so one accountable team sees the property through.

How much mold requires a licensed professional in Texas? Once mold contamination exceeds 25 contiguous square feet, Texas requires licensed professionals. Below that, a property owner may handle their own property. New Armor Restoration holds Texas Mold Remediation Contractor License #RCO1728.

Can the same company inspect the mold and remove it? No. Texas rules prohibit a licensee from performing both the mold assessment and the mold remediation on the same project. A licensed assessment consultant writes the protocol and performs the post-remediation assessment; a separate licensed remediation contractor does the work. The separation is what keeps the finding independent.

What is a Certificate of Mold Damage Remediation? A document signed by both the remediation contractor and the assessment consultant within 10 days of completion. It prevents an insurer from making an underwriting decision on the residential property based on that previous mold damage. Ask for it and keep it with the property records.

Does the owner exemption apply to apartments? No. A residential property owner may assess or remediate their own property without a license, but that exemption does not apply once a property has 10 or more dwelling units.

A tenant and a landlord disagree about mold. Who decides? Not either of them. Where the contamination crosses the licensing threshold, an independent licensed assessment consultant establishes what is there and what the protocol will be. We can take moisture readings and assess visible damage at no charge and tell you what the property actually shows. Legal questions about a landlord–tenant dispute belong with an attorney, not a restoration contractor.
