Does SERVPRO Restrict the Migration of Mold During Mold Remediation of Brooklyn Homes?
Mold spores are everywhere; however, they need moisture and a food source to develop into a mold infestation in a Brooklyn home. Moisture sources are widespread, including plumbing leaks, condensation on cold water pipes, condensation from AC units, and high humidity from poorly vented bathroom showers. Humidity levels above 45% are great sources of moisture for mold to make an appearance.
SERVPRO provides mold remediation services to Brooklyn homeowners and the surrounding areas. We inspect the building for mold, the size of the infestation, and potential damage to the structure. Mold colonies allowed to grow over longer periods can penetrate drywall, wood products, and other porous materials. Taking immediate action as soon as you notice mold or smell a musty odor can reduce the damage compared to waiting to see if it will disappear on its own.
We are obligated to follow local and state laws based on the size of the affected area. Large areas require specific inspections and documentation protocols. Our team can review the site and advise on how to proceed based on the local bylaws and state requirements.
It is essential to immediately address the source of the moisture or high humidity. Otherwise, mold will reappear again and again. SERVPRO also takes steps to contain the specific area to prevent mold contamination from spreading to other areas of the home. We install plastic barriers and create negative pressure spaces to prevent mold spores from entering other house areas. All damaged material is bagged in place before removal for disposal.
