Mold Damage in Boynton Beach Homes (And What to Do About It)
Most people never consider that microscopic airborne mold spores are present both indoors and outdoors at all times unless you have air filtration and purification equipment running in your home. And even those devices are not 100% effective at eliminating the potential for mold damage in your house.
When conditions are right for germination, mold damage sets up rapidly in Boynton Beach homes. It spreads anywhere there is something organic to consume, such as sheetrock or wood-based materials (paper is a favorite).
Why SERVPRO
Mold infestations are not something that goes away on its own or with the application of home remedies such as vinegar and water or bleach. The technicians at SERVPRO have extensive training in the remediation of mold damage and how to halt the conditions favorable for the germination and growth of spores without the danger of spreading them during abatement.
Careful Removal of Damage Items
When sheetrock or items have mold, they have no potential for restoration and require removal and disposal. The techs carefully catalog each part of the remediation process, including items requiring discarding. They are careful to document the damage with photos and a detailed report so the homeowner can expedite the insurance claim if filing for a loss.
Determination of Cause
SERVPRO techs scope the property. If there hasn't been recent water damage or a known leak repaired, they locate the source of the mold-favorable conditions and recommend the course of action needed to the property owner. Common reasons are slow leaks from plumbing or hot water tanks. Attics are another place mold growth starts, and it can be from a hole in the roof or a malfunctioning exhaust system allowing the steam from showers in the home to get trapped in the attic rather than expelled.
