Mould Policy: Inspection First (IICRC S520)

Mould remediation is not a simple clean. Under the IICRC S520 Standard for Professional Mold Remediation, treating mould without a proper inspection can miss moisture sources and lead to recurrence. All mould work starts with a professional inspection conducted by technicians certified to S520 principles, so controls, containment, and remediation are set correctly from the start.

Mould Inspection & Remediation for Commercial, Government & High-Value Properties

Elite Maintenance delivers compliant mould inspection and remediation to protect assets, reduce downtime, and meet insurer and facilities requirements. Our approach follows IICRC S520 principles with strict containment, verification, and documentation—controlled remediation, not a surface clean.

Controlled mould inspection and remediation

Governed Remediation Built for Risk-Controlled Sites

We assess the environment, define scope early, and apply containment-first controls to reduce exposure pathways and recurrence risk. Delivery is designed for facilities governance, insurer clarity, and safe return-to-service.

  1. Containment & engineering controls
  2. Defensible scope & documentation
  3. Verification & sign-off discipline

Note: Where mould is linked to water ingress, we can coordinate drying and recovery aligned with IICRC S500 to reduce secondary loss.

Containment First

We isolate affected zones quickly to reduce spread risk and protect adjacent assets while assessment and scope are confirmed.

Less Downtime, Less Exposure

Early stabilisation can reduce remediation scope, business interruption, and claim volatility—supporting faster, more controlled recovery.

If the incident involves water ingress, our teams can coordinate drying and recovery aligned with IICRC S500 to minimise secondary damage.
