BIO
Michael Rubino is a Council Certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor (CMRS) with over 13 years of experience in indoor air quality assessment and remediation. His certification requires 10 years of documented field experience fixing homes and uncovering indoor air problems. He has worked with numerous clients, including celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow, to address hidden mold issues in seemingly clean homes.
KISMET
One of the earliest known mold remediation protocols appears in the Old Testament book of Leviticus, which prescribed a specific process for dealing with mold in homes. If the mold returned after cleaning, the affected stones were to be removed and carried outside the village - an early example of proper contamination containment.
