Our mold prevention protocol for Ames properties includes rapid water extraction within the first hour, strategic placement of commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers, application of antimicrobial treatments to affected surfaces, and continuous monitoring of moisture levels until readings return to normal. Speed is the single most important factor in preventing mold growth after water damage.
Category 1 is clean water from sources like broken supply lines. Category 2 is gray water from appliances or sump pump failures that may contain contaminants. Category 3 is black water from sewage backups or outdoor flooding and poses serious health risks. Each category requires different safety protocols and restoration methods. Our Ames technicians assess the water category on arrival and follow IICRC S500 standards accordingly.
Untreated water damage in Ames properties can lead to mold growth that causes respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and asthma aggravation. Category 2 and 3 water introduces bacteria and pathogens that pose immediate health risks. Our IICRC-certified restoration process eliminates these hazards through proper extraction, antimicrobial treatment, dehumidification, and air filtration using HEPA-equipped scrubbers.
It depends on the severity and category of the water damage. Minor Category 1 incidents in Ames homes often allow you to remain in unaffected areas while we work. However, for extensive damage or Category 3 black water situations, we may recommend temporary relocation for your safety. Our team coordinates with your insurance company on additional living expenses if displacement is necessary.

"Credible and outstanding relief and construction company! One of the best in the state."
"Called Shane to help me with my roof. The previous contractors denied me because insurance denied me. Shane turned it all around and got insurance to pay for it and they directly deposited it into my account. I recommend him. Especially if you are a minority. He advocates for us!"
"We hired Shane at Mystic Relief and Construction to complete renovation on our rental property. He sent his team out the next day to fix a few windows and replace the deck. We will be using Mystic Relief Solutions for all of our rentals."
