This picture shows an example of some of the visible signs that you home or business may have a mold issue.  If you see mold like this give SERVPRO a call!

Negative air chambers set up during a mold remediation prevent cross-contamination of other areas. This is important because we do not want to expose other areas of the home to mold, further escalating the issue.

Mold is a really big bother and not only some of the time but all of the time. Mold grows on an abundance of things but it seeks MOISTURE, WARMTH, and FOOD, and all three conditions are necessary for it to grow. Mold is most likely to find a place to grow in a bathroom, basement or kitchen, but it can grow in other rooms if conditions are favorable.

Our crew uses this containment procedure to prevent any cross contamination. This means that no other part of your home or even your business gets contaminated with any mold particles that might travel through the air. We take care of our costumers as if they were family and make sure that absolutely nothing harms them.

Safety is a must when it comes to anything harmful especially mold. Not only for you as our customer but our crew themselves. Our crew gets completely dressed up in suits and a mask with special filters. This prevents them from getting sick by breathing it in or by touching their skin. Our crew takes every precaution to stay safe.

Mold 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 false. Consider the following mold facts:

• Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold is 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 on a pet.
• Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water or moisture. 
• 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.
