How Professionals Remove Mold From Your Kendale Lakes Home

12/27/2018 (Permalink)

Failure to remove the moisture source can cause a mold colony to become a recurring problem.

Reasons That Lead to Recurring Cases of Mold Damage in Kendale Lakes

A recurring mold problem can be a huge pain to address. Mold readily proliferates, but you
can eliminate it easily too if you take the right steps. When the problem recurs, it means
some things are not done correctly during the remediation process. We have IICRC certified Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians who take all necessary measures to offer a lasting solution to your mold problem.

If your efforts to fix mold damage in Kendale Lakes do not touch on all affected areas, the problem might recur in the areas you fix. Even if it does not recur, you keep dealing with issues like musty smells - which are common with mold infestations. Our SERVPRO technicians evaluate your property thoroughly to identify all areas that the problem might reach. Using FLIR thermal cameras, we can check even concealed areas without tearing them down first. 

Cleaning is part of mold remediation procedures. In a bid to remove debris and staining on surfaces, you might use the wrong approaches that fuel future growth. One such method is cleaning affected areas with bleach when trying to eliminate spores. However, the moisture left fuels future growth since the spores occur naturally in the environment. Failure to isolate affected areas during the cleanup process can also spread the problem to unaffected areas. Our SERVPRO technicians use professional cleaning agents when damp wiping is necessary. We rely on dry cleaning approaches such as HEPA vacuuming. We also use air scrubbers to kill spores and improve air quality. 

Moisture is the main ingredient fueling most incidents of mold infestation. However, this is not to say that mold only requires moisture to thrive. An organic food source, oxygen, and warmth are the other factors that help mold to grow. Most environments only lack moisture, so any presence of moisture leads to mold growth. Insufficient drying efforts or failure to identify the moisture source leads to a recurring mold problem. Our SERVPRO technicians use fast air movers and industrial grade dehumidifiers to remove excessive moisture. We also have moisture detection tools like thermo-hygrometers, moisture sensors, moisture meters, and thermal cameras to detect any hidden moisture. 

A recurring mold cycle might be hard to break. Call SERVPRO of South Miami at (305) 269-8900 to help you. We’re Faster To Any Size Disaster.
