Coveralls for water damage restoration and mold remediation
Mold, sewage and demolition dust, inside hot, humid containment. Your crews go through suits fast. We keep hooded microporous, vented and SMS coveralls well stocked, and ship the day you order.
What your crews are up against
Mold spores and fragments
Removing growth and contaminated materials releases spores and fragments that settle on skin, hair and clothing, and ride out of containment on your crew.
Category 3 water
Sewage and floodwater can carry bacteria and other pathogens. Splash during extraction and tear-out calls for a liquid barrier, not just a dust suit.
Demolition debris
Wet drywall, insulation and flooring tear-out puts fine dust and grime on everything, including the homeowner's house if it leaves on your clothes.
Heat inside containment
Sealed rooms, dehumidifiers and respirators make for long, hot shifts. A suit that's too hot gets unzipped or cut open, and then it isn't protecting anyone.
Which coverall for which task
A starting point for matching suits to restoration work. Your remediation plan and written protocols come first.
| Task | Recommended coverall |
|---|---|
| Mold remediation inside full containment | Microporous, hooded, with bootsSeal wrists and ankles to gloves and boots as your protocol requires. |
| Small-area mold, limited containment | Microporous or SMS |
| Sewage and Category 3 water cleanup | Microporous, hooded, with bootsFor heavy saturation or pressurized spray, ask us about taped-seam suits. |
| Long shifts in hot, humid containment | VentMicroporous body with a breathable back panel. |
| Dry demolition and tear-out | SMS |
| Contents pack-out, inspections, estimates | PolypropyleneLight duty and the most economical. |
| Attic mold and rodent cleanouts | Microporous or VentPair with our insulation removal and snake bags for the debris. |
What the guidance says
For larger remediation jobs, EPA describes full PPE as disposable head and foot coverings and a breathable full-body suit, with the gaps at the wrists and ankles sealed. Smaller jobs may use limited PPE, including disposable coveralls.
Summary of EPA, Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings
Cleanup workers should assume floodwater is contaminated and wear protective clothing, gloves and boots that keep it off their skin.
Summary of OSHA flood cleanup guidance
IICRC S520, the standard for professional mold remediation, classifies areas as Condition 1 (normal), Condition 2 (settled spores) or Condition 3 (actual growth). Your remediation plan should set PPE for the work in each.

Restoration coverall FAQ
Which coverall is best for mold remediation?
For most work inside containment, a hooded microporous coverall with attached boots. If heat is the problem, the Vent Coverall keeps the microporous front and adds a breathable back panel. SMS works for dry, lower-risk tasks.
Can your coveralls be used for Category 3 water?
Our microporous coverall is certified Type 6 for light spray and low-volume splash, which covers typical extraction and tear-out. For heavy saturation or pressurized spray, a taped-seam suit is the right tool. Let us know what you need.
Do you supply franchise and multi-location restoration companies?
Yes. We supply companies with many locations and ship to each branch.
Can we try the suits first?
Yes. Tell us what your crews wear now and we'll send comparable samples at no charge.
