SERVPRO Remediates Many Mold Species in Your Caldwell Home

Caldwell Homes Benefit from the Mold Cleanup Offered by SERVPRO

It is tempting to research a bit and then try to remove household mold colonies without professional help. There may be some embarrassment involved or a misunderstanding of what kinds of procedures and agents successfully rid a home of mold. Save yourself the frustration and be confident that the microbial infestation in your house is abated properly with a call to your local SERVPRO.
 
Mold damage to your Caldwell home is not a reflection upon housekeeping practices or general cleanliness. Mold spores are always in the air, indoors and out, awaiting the perfect conditions to activate and grow. Our mold remediation specialists have advanced training in the life cycles of the more than 100,000 strains of fungi waiting to feed and grow in your home. Understanding mold is the key to resolving a mold proliferation.
 
When you smell an earthy, musty odor or see streaking and staining of surfaces, ask SERVPRO to investigate. Mold spores need water and a source of organic matter to transform from specks floating in the air to rapidly expanding colonies. Mold comes in a rainbow of colors and textures from fuzzy to leathery. It slowly destroys building structures and personal belongings if not remediated by our trained technicians. Susceptible individuals with allergies or other sensitivities report health issues when a mold is on the upswing, but only a health care practitioner appropriately advises in those cases.
 
SERVPRO crews receive certification in remediation techniques developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA,) and use these efficient protocols to almost rid your home of current infestations and avoid future problems. However, total extermination and elimination of these fungi are not possible. The first task is to contain the mold. We use physical barriers like plastic sheeting when the mold outbreak is small. Negative air pressure machines arrive with us when larger colonies present. They filter the air and vent residues outside of living areas, ensuring that spores and other particulates do not circulate in your home’s atmosphere.
 
Next, the moldy material, including any porous surface infiltrated, is removed and bagged for proper disposal. Our staff wears personal protective equipment (PPE) throughout for safety during each step. We apply professional-grade antimicrobials to the affected area and vacuum up debris using equipment with HEPA filtration systems. The crew replaces any building material removed with the mold, and paints, stains or otherwise finish the area to look “Like it never even happened.”
 
No remediation is complete until we find and arrange for the repair of the water source causing the mold to grow in the first place. Plumbing or roof leaks are common reasons, but even high humidity encourages mold growth.
