SERVPRO Experts Know Exactly What Needs to Be Done for Mold Removal in Woodbury

A professional restoration company like SERVPRO understands it is impossible to completely remove all traces of mold from any building. The microscopic spores are everywhere. But what we can do is provide mold remediation to help prevent it from growing.

Mold Remediation – Getting Rid of Mold  

When mold develops in Woodbury homes, mold removal experts are often called to clean up the growth. At SERVPRO, our technicians have the expertise and training required to remediate mold. Each situation is unique, but we take certain steps no matter how bad the mold is. The general mold remediation process includes:

• Inspecting and assessing the mold damage
• Containment
• Air filtration
• Removal of mold and any material infested with mold
• Cleaning structural elements and content
• Restoration 

Removing the Moisture Source

One of the key elements to prevent mold from returning is addressing the water source that allowed it to develop. Mold spores are everywhere, and they float along in the air. The spores need moisture to grow, and when they find it, they rapidly expand into colonies. Our techs locate the moisture and remove that if needed. They discuss ways to ensure your home stays at the proper humidity level and other risk factors.
