Why Discovering Mold Damage Is Not A Reason To Panic In Your Covina Home
Mold is a natural part of the home environment. They reside within wall-spaces, attics or other less frequented areas of the home and travel primarily through air currents. We make an effort to educate our community about mold, pointing out that there are many positive aspects, penicillin, for example, is derived from these microscopic fungi. It is only when mold comes into contact with damp spots in a warm, humid environment and form colonies that they can become a problem for the homeowner.
A typical call out to assess mold damage in Covina properties is not a reason to panic. At SERVPRO, we have heard horror stories of lengthy laboratory testing or extensive replacement and remodeling. These are a minority of cases, and usually, mold can be dealt with efficiently with minimum expense. If you notice a moldy odor or visible colonies on walls or ceilings a professional service like ours can usually remediate the damages without a drawn-out procedure.
The primary goal in a job like this is to find the source. A loose pipe leaking water or high humidity levels can both contribute. Failure to remedy the problem at the source makes any work carried out cosmetic with the issue likely to return after a few weeks. SERVPRO uses specialized mold assessors with IICRC qualifications to identify the source and deal with it first and foremost.
IICRC qualifications are not cheap or easy to complete, but by investing in our technicians, we offer superb value for money service. Once the source of mold is dealt with appropriately, we can get to work removing the unpleasant colonies. Our methods involve applying agitative cleaning methods to scrub away the mold.
These methods can cause mold spores to become airborne and spread to other areas of the home. For that reason, we can use physical barriers or negative air-pressure to create a robust quarantine while work is in progress. Once removed anti-microbial paints and treatments can be applied to your carpets, curtains, ceilings, and walls to guard against recurring issues.
The essential parts of a mold remediation service are trained technicians armed with the right equipment. SERVPRO leverages our national scale resources to ensure we provide both to the community, providing a leading restoration service in the process.
