Property Owners Should Hire Professionals like SERVPRO Perform Mold Cleanup in Dallas Homes
Water damage causes mold damage as a secondary effect. Within 24 hours, mold can begin to grow in dark corners and cause health effects if the cause of the problem is not addressed promptly. It is essential to involve a certified company like SERVPRO that can leave you and your family in a safe environment to remediate mold.
Determining the extent of the damage is the first step our technicians begin with during mold cleanup in Dallas properties. During this process, our technicians protect themselves from mold colonies by wearing respirators and waterproof gloves. For an effective mold cleanup process, we conduct thorough:
- Mold damage assessment: Mold thrives in dark areas, which can be difficult to reach. Our SERVPRO restorers can use inspection cameras to help us locate these mold colonies in confined spaces.
- Mold containment and air filtration: To prevent cross-contamination, we can isolate the affected area with plastic sheeting and use negative air pressure throughout the process.
- Cleaning and drying materials infested with mold.
- Remediating mold colonies: We can deal with mold colonies on various surfaces using unique but approved products. Our SERVPRO team of restorers can apply antimicrobial and antifungal treatments on affected surfaces.
If there is mold on your property, you should immediately get it remediated by professionals before it spreads further. Our SERVPRO technicians can remediate mold from more than just ceilings, walls, and floors. Every item with mold growth requires a unique and specific set of procedures to ensure successful remediation. In some cases, it is impossible to remediate the mold, and the solution is to discard the affected items.
Even though mold appears harmless, it can cause health effects. Contact SERVPRO of Southeast Dallas County for professional remediation services at (972) 227-0800. We’re Faster To Any Size Disaster.
