Mold Remediation and Restoration

Local and state laws may require a specific inspection and documentation protocol based on the size of the affected area. We can advise you on this process, providing guidance based on your unique situation.

What Mold Specialists Conduct Inspections?

As of 2016, the state law requires remediation companies and inspection companies to be different when working to resolve microbial threats in a residence or business. Despite using a third-party industrial hygienist to report their findings to the customer and our remediation team, we can stay in communication with the property owner to detail the projected plans and restoration methods after mold inspection.

Mold Remediation After Water Damages 

Mold removal and black mold damage repairs are often necessary after discovering microbial threats in your home or business. Promptly addressing these concerns after the inspection phase allows us to determine the best and most efficient approach to recover the property. With an experienced mold remediation team, we can offer:

  • Bathroom mold removal
  • Basement mold remediation
  • Black mold
  • Attic mold
  • Mold remediation
  • Mold specialists

How Can SERVPRO Contain Attic Mold?

The attic is often a low traffic area of your home, making it an ideal location for mold development that gets out of control. Appropriate containment strategies with plastic sheeting and wood framework constructed shortly after our remediators arrive can reduce the spread of microbes and active mold spores.

Mold Damage Repairs for Basement Mold Remediation

With a mold construction license, we can offer various repairs and build back solutions for replacing discarded materials and reconstructing areas damaged by moisture penetration or mold development. Foundation walls can often require repairs and patching to prevent further water damage that required basement mold removal.

Understanding Mold

Microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, outdoors and indoors, making it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Some restoration businesses advertise “mold removal” and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts:

  • Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
  • Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
  • Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
  • Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
  • Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
  • Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
