Mold growth in your Commercial Business causing a Challenge?

When your Commercial Business has mold, and it goes untreated it can cause a major disruption.  Mold can spread quickly if left untreated.  Our technicians at SERVPRO respond quickly to contain the mold and prevent further spread.  Our technicians have the training, experience, and equipment to contain the mold infestation. 

Mold can sometimes be difficult to spot and can pollute the air while threatening the structural integrity of your establishment.  If a leak is noticed it is essential to immediately get it fixed and repair all wet spots.  Reducing the moisture level in the air and adding ventilation will increase circulation reducing any condensation.  The goal of humidity in the air should have a reading of 30- 50%.  Wet foundations and an HVAC system that is not working properly can cause moisture issues resulting in the growth of mold

Some Mold will give off a musty or pungent odor and some do not.  Mold thrives in dark, humid places like attics, basements, bathrooms, and under sinks. Inspecting these areas for mold or leaks can prevent further damage and costly repairs to your business.

It is recommended to throw away the following items when mold has become infected with mold:

• Cardboard
• Carpeting
• Padding
• Mattresses
• Stuffed animals
