Water Intrusion and Flood Impact Assessment
Source tracing, moisture mapping, and a code-aligned plan that protects clean zones and returns spaces to service safely after a water event.
Water events left unaddressed become serious problems. We trace sources and pathways across units, shafts, and assemblies, map moisture in materials, and define a code-aligned remediation plan that protects unaffected areas and returns spaces to service safely. Acting inside the 24-to-48-hour window matters, because that is when drying prevents most mold growth.
What the assessment includes
- Source tracing and pathway modeling across vertical and horizontal runs
- Moisture mapping of assemblies and finishes with material response profiles
- Cavity and adjacent-space evaluation for hidden reservoirs
- Methods for removal, cleaning, and protection of unaffected areas
- Verification testing and re-commissioning considerations for reopening
Questions owners and insurers ask
What does FixAIRx actually do?
We are an independent environmental-hygiene and large-loss consultancy. We assess and document fire, water, mold, and indoor-air-quality problems in commercial and residential buildings, and we write code-aligned remediation plans. We are the independent expert and claims-advocacy partner, not the remediation contractor, which keeps our findings unbiased.
How fast can mold start growing after water damage?
If wet or damp materials are dried within 24 to 48 hours of a leak or spill, in most cases mold will not grow (US EPA). After that window, mold can begin growing on damp, cellulose-rich materials like drywall, paper, and wood.
Should I use bleach to clean up mold?
The US EPA does not recommend bleach or other biocides as a routine practice for mold cleanup. For a small area on a hard surface, the EPA recommends scrubbing with detergent and water and drying completely. The key is removing the mold and fixing the moisture, not just killing it.
Do I need a mold test, and do you have to identify the type of mold?
When visible mold is present, sampling is usually unnecessary just to confirm you have mold (US EPA), and the CDC says it is not necessary to identify the species because all molds should be treated the same way for removal. Testing is most useful for defining the extent of a problem, clearance after remediation, or investigating an air-quality complaint.
Do I need a licensed assessor in Texas?
In Texas, a licensed Mold Assessment Consultant (licensed through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation) is the professional who formally assesses a property and writes the remediation protocol that a remediator then follows. We provide that independent assessment.
What areas do you serve?
We serve the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Dallas, Plano, Lewisville, Frisco, Allen, Richardson, Carrollton, and Grapevine.
What should I do first after a fire?
Once the property is safe to enter, an independent fire-damage assessment maps smoke pathways, checks HVAC and concealed cavities, and produces a documented, code-aligned remediation plan. Getting independent documentation early protects both the building and your insurance claim.
