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.

Our mold specialists can help when facing threatening conditions like microbial colonization spreading in moist areas of the house. Because these organisms can be destructive to host materials, it is vital to begin mold removal as soon as possible. We have Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians (AMRT) ready to respond 24/7 to help with:

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

Are Black Mold Damage Repairs Necessary? 

There are instances in which the only effective remediation strategies available for eliminating active colonies in your home is to rely on controlled demolition. With a general contractor license, our team can provide a broader range of services tailored to repairs and reconstruction necessary after mold damage concerns. Mold inspection can often identify where repairs and build back might be required. However, the final say is usually determined by the demolition needed to overcome spreading organisms in the property.

How Can SERVPRO Complete Mold Removal in Area Homes?  

Controlled demolition is not always exclusively required to overcome and remove active colonies from your home. It is often first considered to try other strategies and methods to eliminate these organisms before tear-out and reconstruction are required. Remediation for conditions like attic mold removal and the elimination of black mold concerns can fixate on surface treatment such as abrasive cleaning, sanding, and potent cleaning agents. When these tactics will not work or are not applied quickly enough, demolition is the alternative.

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.
