SERVPRO's Professional Mold Containment Is a Crucial Factor in Remediation and Removal for Raleigh Area Commercial Sites

Musty Odors Are a Symptom of Mold Infestation. SERVPRO is a Commercial Mold Remediation Company for Raleigh Businesses.

Are my staff and clients safe in premises with mold?

Microbial organisms can have health effects on members of your Raleigh staff or clients. However, health issues associated with mold are usually minor. What can be concerning is the type of working environment you are providing. Mold can make a work environment unsanitary. Using a professional remediator to solve microbial growth issues in your business is the best long-term solution. Qualified technicians can act quickly to inhibit mold growth, remove infested materials, and try to prevent microbial problems from returning. SERVPRO works with commercial clients regularly and can arrive on-site in as little as four hours from receiving notification of loss.

What are the initial stages of mold remediation?

• Providing a safe working space for technicians and reduce the chances of disturbing molds, including isolation barriers
• Document and record the conditions within your workplace as well as the extent of the infestation
• Contain the source of the issue to prevent further infestation

Are long-term mold issues harder to restore?

When a problem grows to a specific size and requires commercial mold remediation in your Raleigh business, we may have to replace the affected materials altogether. Physically removing mold-infested materials can cause spores to become airborne. To ensure that your business remains free from further infestation, our technicians can apply negative air-pressure when physically removing damaged materials. These air scrubber machines help to capture any spores that may become airborne when physically removing materials like drywall. Outfitted with HEPA and charcoal filters, indoor air quality can be significantly improved.

What are the late stages of mold remediation

• Removing contamination from your business, including more extensive materials
• Protecting surfaces using anti-microbial chemicals
• Correcting the initial issue that causes mold growth (usually a moisture problem)
