Professional Remediation by SERVPRO Controls Mold Growth in Your Home

As familiar as it might be to Atlanta homes throughout the year, there is very little that most homeowners even know about mold growth. While you might work hard to keep your house clean and free from potential problems, mold colonization in moisture ridden areas can happen to any residence. There are very few things that are a requirement for fungal growth, and the interior of your home gets constructed with one of these: organic materials.

Yes, for spores to turn into colonies, you need warm temperatures, moisture, and organic materials. Considering that many of the interior walls of your home primarily consist of drywall and wood, there are little stopping spores from seating on these surfaces if the other conditions get met. Preventing mold damage to your Atlanta home is often a battle of keeping your home dry, and understanding that regular inspections of critical components intended to keep moisture out can aid in preventing colonies from forming.
 
There is no mistaking that mold growth has gotten linked to potential health effects for you and your family, so it is nothing to put off until a favorable time. While ultimately this process is successful through the employment of SERVPRO IICRC certified remediation specialists, there is a specific reason why professional restoration is a requirement for success.
 
Most often, conventional cleaning methods only scratch the surface (literally) of the problem that you are facing. Instead of penetrating deeply enough to uproot and remove the entire organism that is thriving (hyphae), your cleaning methods are only useful on the limited depth that your cleaning utensils can reach. This process merely puts a bandage on a problem that returns after a short while. Applying a product such as bleach can also add to the moisture source that molds crave for expansion.
 
Instead of not fully correcting the fungal problem, you can trust in the experience and diligence of our SERVPRO remediation technicians. From the moment that we arrive, we get to work on blocking off the affected area from spreading further while also working to locate the source of the moisture and repair it if possible.
 
While this is only a small piece of the remediation process, it can show the dedication and experience found in every technician at SERVPRO of West Atlanta / Downtown. If you are facing mold damage in your home, do not hesitate to call us at (404) 835-0200.
