Why You Should Call SERVPRO to Remove Mold

Mold can spread rapidly

Cleaning up the mold involves identifying any and all the areas of your home that are growing mold. These areas are usually exposed to high levels of humidity or wetness, and cleanup may require building materials to be replaced. It is often likely that the walls need to be opened in certain areas in order to clean up mold growth within the walls. The area should be repaired with brand new materials in an effort to not reintroduce the mold spores.

If you are doing the cleanup yourself, the dangers of black mold increase during the cleanup process since you will be increasing your exposure to the mold. It is extremely necessary to take precautionary steps in order to prevent cross contamination and in order to minimize your exposure. Wearing goggles, a mask, and other protective clothing can help you to avoid exposure to the spores. However, this type of remediation is best left to the professionals.
