SERVPRO Technicians Have Training and Certification for Handling Mold Damage Remediation in Boynton Beach
The need for mold remediation in Boynton Beach properties may be 100% preventable; however, business owners can take actions to limit the occurrence. Preventative measures can help keep the potential for an infestation to a minimum.
Some of the actions Boynton Beach business owners can take against mold damage in their buildings include:
- Ensuring interior humidity levels are under 50%
- Inspecting for structural and plumbing leaks
- Repairing issues before they become larger problems
- Look for stains or warping within walls and ceilings
Ways to keep the humidity levels low include the use of an HVAC system with a dehumidification unit. Mold requires moisture to flourish, and keeping the air moisture content down yet comfortable can stop the building from creating a hospitable environment for mold infections.
When getting the building interior painted, the use of commercial paint treated with mold inhibitors can leave the walls resistant to fungi and moisture, so when humidity levels go up, the threat of mold growth stays down.
Poor ventilation is another factor that benefits mold colonies. Make sure all areas of the building have good cross-ventilation either from vents or windows.
Ask your regular janitorial staff to report if they notice any visible signs of potential mold growth. If signs of a mold infestation are found, it is good to bring in SERVPRO to remedy the problem. The technicians have the training and equipment such as probes and infrared cameras to peer behind walls and under flooring to determine the scale of the spread of the mold colonies. This ensures that complete mitigation occurs.
