This depends on the affected area's size. The on-site technician will outline which spaces are sealed off under containment during work.
Does homeowners insurance cover mold from storms?
Coverage varies by policy. The remediation work is fully documented to support the claim process with your insurance carrier.

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Central Pacolet home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
