"Pure Maintenance came through last minute and Travis was amazing!! He provided optimal service and very accommodating. He took the time to explain his process and the state of the art technology his company uses to detect and treat mold. He was very thorough and gave me a great price. He even engaged with my kids despite the chaos of three babies running around. I’m very thankful my family can be safe in our new home."
Nikki O
"I can't give enough praise for Pure Maintenance—5 stars doesn’t even begin to cover it, I’d give them 10 if I could! We had a project affected by water damage from last year’s hurricane, and the customer was initially quoted a staggering $147,000 by a mold remediation company. Yes, you read that right—$147,000 just to tear out drywall and insulation. And that was just the beginning; the house would still need to be rebuilt. It was outrageous, and based purely on air testing with no real evidence—just scare tactics."

The Future of Mold Remediation

Pure Maintenance's patented VaPURE system fills the volume of your home with our trademark dry fog. It seeps into carpet, and in and behind walls without leaving anything wet after the treatment. It finds and destroys (denatures) mold wherever it is, whether it's on a surface, in the air, in a void space, or embedded in furniture. Our mold treatment process is backed by science, and is designed to be minimally invasive (avoiding demolition where possible), fast, and affordable.
The Pure Maintenance Difference

Why Choose Pure Maintenance Patented Dry Fog Technology?

Pure Maintenance of Southern California utilize patented, world-leading mold remediation technology - the VaPURE system. Let's take a look at why our approach to mold remediation is being utilized across the globe:
Effective

We are so confident in the patented VaPure Technology that we guarantee that the indoor mold levels within the treated environment will be in line with or lower than outdoor levels (measured via air samples). Our mold remediation technology restores air quality.

More Affordable

Our patented VaPure technology often avoids the need for costly demolition and reconstruction projects, as it gets into the nooks and crannies mold may be lurking. Demolition and reconstruction can be incredibly expensive and time-consuming.

Fast

Old remediation methods can take weeks to get mold levels back to satisfactory levels in just a single room. Then there's the painstaking labor of rebuilding everything. With VaPure technology, the entire problem from start to finish can often be taken care of in less than 12 hours.

Less Invasive

Instead of quarantining off sections of your house and having contractors walking in and out for weeks, we simply bring our fogging technology into your home or office. In most cases, your mold treatment will be completed on the same day, thanks to our patented VaPure technology.

How It Works

The Process

Our approach to mold remediation can be broken into four simple steps.

Step 01 — We Find Mold & Its Cause(s)

Our technicians will survey your property and identify the likely source(s) of the mold. They will use a range of advanced tools to identify the cause and find any visible mold.

Step 02 — We Destroy (Denature) The Mold

Our patented VaPure treatment, through the creation of positive vapor pressure, will fill the volume of a room or building with Peracetic Acid (PAA), penetrating voids, hard surfaces and permeating the airspace.

Step 03 — We Help Stop The Mold Coming Back

Our antimicrobial layer is applied to all surfaces, creating a covalent bond. This helps prevent mold from regrowing by electrostatically attracting spores, and destroying them.

Step 04 — We Prove Success With Data

Air samples taken in various areas of your home are analyzed by an independent, third-party laboratory to demonstrate quantitative markers of mold reduction. We prove the success of our treatment.

Our patented Dry Fog Technology Vs traditional "Wet Fog"

Dry Fog (Our Patented Technology)
The tiny particles penetrate porous materials and rebound from surfaces creating a dry vapor. The vapor creates an uninhabitable environment that mold, bacteria, cannot survive.
Wet Fog or Mist (Other Mold Remediators)
Large wet droplets burst, causing surfaces to become wet. The larger particle size also leaves gaps in molecular coverage. Resulting in poor coverage and a residue left on surfaces.

The 4-Step Mold Remediation Process

Step 01

We Inspect The Property To Tailor Treatment

Data collection and assessment of the unique circumstances in the property.

Tailored Approach
Expert Property Inspection Carried Out
Every home is different and therefore the cause(s) of mold growth could be numerous. Mold can be caused by structural defects, resident behavior, or a nuanced blend of the two. Our specialist technicians help you understand why your home has a mold problem, and we can tailor our treatment accordingly.
Specialist Data Gathering
Cutting-Edge Diagnostic tools
Our expert technicians use a suite of professional diagnostic tools, combined with their knowledge, to offer insights as unique as the conditions in your home. Our expert technicians will use the patented InstaScope, which not only provides a real-time analysis of mold in your air space but also identifies bacteria, VOC's, CO2, and other bioaerosols.
Step 02

Whole Home Mold Eradication

Our patented dry fog process. This denatures mold and other microbes in the air and on surfaces.

Eradication of Mold
The InstaPURE Process
The first of two stages of fogging, we fill the property with our sterilant. We do so by using our proprietary, patented fog machine which deploys the product in a novel way. The application consists of Peracetic Acid (PAA) which is one of only eight antimicrobial actives the Environmental Protection Agency includes on their Safer Chemical Ingredients List, where it also labels PAA as “verified to be of low concern based on experimental and modeled data.” It eradicates mold by chemically eroding the cell wall (lysis) and denaturing the protein within, rendering it inert nothingness.

Fogging: Stage 1 of 2

Sterilant Permeates Everywhere
Comprehensive Coverage
Our proprietary technology ensures comprehensive coverage, penetrating even the most hard-to-reach areas where mold thrives. By manipulating the particle size of the product used in the InstaPURE process, we fog throughout your home or business, we allow it to reach areas traditional means of application would not. This means we can get to the hard-to-reach places mold can lurk. This approach is effective in reducing mold levels in ways other method cannot achieve, providing lasting protection for your home or business.

Fogging: Stage 1 of 2

Step 03

Whole Home Mold Prevention

The second stage of the fogging process. The application of our antimicrobial film to prevent mold returning.

Ongoing Protection
Covalent Bond
Next, we spray an antimicrobial agent onto all surfaces to limit future microbial regrowth. Our antimicrobial film forms a covalent bond with the majority of surfaces it contacts. Essentially, this means it becomes one with the surface. It's invisible, imperceptible and completely safe once adhered.

Fogging: Stage 2 of 2

Inhospitable to Mold
Attracts & Eradicates
The antimicrobial layer electrostatically attracts mold spores to it, eradicating them. The mold spores are punctured by carbon spikes which, simply put, form a microscopic bed of nails. This ensures new mold spores that enter the property are eradicated mechanically before they can take root.

Fogging: Stage 2 of 2

Step 04

Third-Party Accredited Lab Proves Success

Don't just take our word for it. Our work is verified by independent scientists, and you're given full access to the report.

Proof Of Success
Independent Verification
Air samples are sent off to a third-party accredited lab. They analyze the spore count per m3 and the species of mold detected. The results are returned in the form of a written report, which we're always happy to talk you through.

Verifiable proof of a successful treatment

Results guaranteed
Mold Gone. Guaranteed.
In the unlikely event the report comes back and the air sample shows we've fallen short of our high standards: If there's still a clear mold issue present in the property, we will come back and repeat the mold remediation process at no additional cost. We know our mold treatment system works, and we'll make it right.

We'll get rid of your mold. Guaranteed.
