SERVPRO Uses Advanced Technology to Restore Mold Damage in Azusa Homes
Mold damage in your Azusa home can ruin its aesthetics and create structural issues. Unmitigated mold can proliferate in conducive environments, and it is essential to act quickly to prevent the situation from becoming a disaster.
SERVPRO techs ensure that the containment of the mold damage in your Azusa home is as close to the source as possible. When mold spores aerosolize, they become increasingly difficult to capture and eliminate. Hence, it is crucial to prevent the aerosolization of the spores by establishing containment between the affected and unaffected areas of the structure.
Containment during Mold Remediation
SERVPRO mold specialists begin the restoration process by thoroughly inspecting your property for visible signs of mold. We also identify problem areas with high moisture content that have the potential for contamination.
If visible mold is present, our IICRC-certified techs use the following three types of containment zones depending on the extent of the contamination.
- Source containment: SERVPRO techs use source containment if visible mold is present in a relatively small area and hidden mold is not present. Taping polyethylene sheeting or using self-plastic on a moldy surface is a type of source containment.
- Local containment: Is used when a moderate level of mold is present. It involves creating an enclosure with 6-mil polyethylene sheets, PVC pipes, and wooden frames to separate contaminated and uncontaminated regions of your home.
- Full-scale containment: An entire room or portion of the building serves as a containment area, and SERVPRO techs establish critical barriers to separate affected and unaffected areas.
