Mold Damage Restoration

Have you found evidence of mold contamination in various areas of your home? Did you know that it may not be possible for you to control the spread of mold spores alone?

When you discover mold damage in your Key Biscayne home, there are a few things you should know. We are available if you determine that your situation is out of control and you need professional assistance. SERVPRO technicians would like to help educate you more about why mold exists and how it makes its way into your home. It is a regular part of our environment; microscopic spores exist in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and almost every facet of our environment.

Mold is relatively harmless in small quantities; it only becomes harmful when we provide the right conditions to multiply. However, you should also know that it is impossible to entirely remove it from your home. You can limit the exposure you experience by adequately maintaining and controlling the different water sources in your home.

At SERVPRO, we highly suggest that if you discover a water-damaged area in your home, you find the water source, clean and dry the affected area, or immediately seek help. It would help if you acted quickly; mold only needs 24-48 hours to spread. Your entire home could become infested before you realize what has happened. Mold spores can reach areas you cannot see and make your situation extremely hard to control.

If you are only facing small patches of mold growth, you can likely handle the job yourself. However, anything larger than three square feet is entirely different. Attempting to address large contaminated areas could cause you to spread the infection even further without even knowing. Choosing to hire a professional like SERVPRO is the best option.

If you notice that your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system contains mold, you need to shut the system off entirely and seek professional cleaning services immediately. Running the system could cause you to spread the contamination everywhere. When you are facing a mold damage situation and need professional help, contact SERVPRO of South Miami at (305) 269-8900.
