Don't think you spray anti mold until everything is dried. It needs to soak into the wood and it can't do that if it's wet.

Ive spent the past 2 days mucking out homes...

I strongly suggest requiring power off when removing sheetrock.

Our process is the following:
1. Make homeowner document their home with video
2. Remove all wet stuff like furniture and dump on curb.
3.remove flooring as needed. Cut carpet in smaller parts...its heavy.
4. Remove doors and frames....big crowbars work great for this.
5. Remove sheetrock....usually we go to 4 ft, unless water only went up 6.to 12". We use a chalkline, and run a box cutter on the line. No need for saws on this...make too much dust. Use crowbars, hammers, and hands.
6. Remove baseboards...crowbars and hammers here
7. Pull out insulation...pocket knives work good here. Make sure and get above the water line, but dont oull it down from above.
8. Dump it all on the ground, pick up, put in wheel barrows and dump on curb. Flat headed shovels, metal snow shovels are awesome, large brooms are nice.

9. Be careful and safe.

We recommend using humans that are 14 and older.

Excellent safety practices!

I would also suggest Personal Protection Equipment:

• Rubber Gloves (tough ones)
• Rubber boots (No leather - it may hold the toxins and bacteria)
• Safety Glasses/goggles
• Facemask (don't breathe any of it)

Awesome!

:P

My father's going down to help. He has a dump trailer. Is there a reason to take it down, or is everything being put at the curb?

Curb
