Mold Mitigation Services in Northern Idaho

Serving Rathdrum, Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, and Hayden

Why Mold Mitigation Matters

Mold is more than just an eyesore—it’s a serious health hazard. From allergic reactions and respiratory irritation to long-term structural damage, mold can wreak havoc if left unchecked. In Northern Idaho’s damp climate, even minor leaks or moisture issues can quickly escalate into a full-blown mold infestation.

That’s where Northern Lights Mitigation & Consulting comes in. As a certified CRIE (Council-certified Residential Indoor Environmentalist) provider, we specialize in identifying, containing, and eliminating mold at its source. Whether it’s your home in Rathdrum or a commercial property in Post Falls, our expert team delivers thorough, science-backed mitigation tailored to your situation.

Signs You May Have a Mold Problem

Mold isn’t always visible—but the signs are often there. Here’s what to watch for:

  • Musty or earthy odor, especially in basements or bathrooms

  • Recent water damage, leaks, or flooding

  • Staining or discoloration on ceilings, walls, or floors

  • Increased allergy symptoms like sneezing or coughing indoors

  • Soft or warped drywall and materials

If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait. Mold grows fast—and spreads even faster.

Northern Lights Mitigation & Consultation Mold Mitigation Process

We follow strict IICRC S520 guidelines for mold remediation, using the most up-to-date tools and practices. Here’s how we restore your space:

1. Comprehensive Inspection & Testing

We begin with a CRIE-certified inspection using moisture meters, infrared cameras, and air sampling tools to detect both visible and hidden mold.

2. Containment of Affected Area(s)

We set up negative air pressure zones, plastic barriers, and HEPA filtration to stop mold from spreading during removal.

3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

Porous materials like drywall, insulation, and carpet may need to be removed to eliminate deeply embedded mold spores.

4. Surface Cleaning & Treatment

We treat affected surfaces with antimicrobial solutions, HEPA-vacuum debris, and scrub using industry-approved techniques.

5. Air Scrubbing & Dehumidification

Using commercial-grade air scrubbers and dehumidifiers, we dry the area completely to ensure mold doesn’t return.

6. Final Clearance Testing of All Areas

Post-mitigation testing ensures mold levels are safe and the problem is resolved before we call the job done.
