SERVPRO Provides Water Cleanup Services to Azusa Commercial Clients

Does a Delay in Water Removal Cause Mold Infestations in Azusa Commercial Buildings?
Many commercial customers perform water cleanup after a water incident in their Azusa buildings. They may ask employees to mop up the excess water after a leak to resume normal operations as quickly as possible. However, unless humidity levels are brought to normal levels and moisture removed from crevices, flooring materials, and inside walls, mold colonies can form in as little as 24 hours. Mold can cause health effects in employees and customers exposed to mold spores.
SERVPRO provides water cleanup and removal for commercial customers in Azusa. Our teams are available to respond to any water incident in less than four hours from your call, and we are available on a 24/7 basis. We also have the equipment to remove all of the water, moisture, and humidity to prevent mold spores from growing into colonies, damaging structure and contents, and producing that robust and musty odor common to mold infestations.
When mold infestations occur, we also know that it is important to keep as much of your day-to-day operations operating. Our containment plans prevent mold spores from contaminating other areas of your building and allow your employees to continue doing their jobs in those areas.
SERVPRO building containment may include the following actions:
- Establish containment barriers with plastic sheeting
- Installing negative air pressure in the contaminated area
- HVAC vents are sealed to prevent the distribution of spores to other uncontaminated areas
- Clean rooms are established for decontamination when entering, leaving, and for materials and equipment
Calling SERVPRO immediately after a water leak to remove water can prevent secondary damage to contents, structure, and mold infestations.
