Understanding Mold Remediation For Your Nashua Home
7/11/2018 (Permalink)
Nashua Homeowners Rely on SERVPRO for Mold Cleanup and Restoration
The discovery of mold growing in your Nashua home should spring you into action. Apart from the potential health effects attributed to exposure to active colonies, there is substantial damage that these same colonies can do to the structural integrity of the materials they consume.
Many homeowners do not understand why mold growth is so detrimental in their residence, however. Worse yet, they have a misguided notion that DIY methods of cleaning and mold removal are as effective as actual mold remediation for their Nashua house. A better understanding of the process and intricate nature of mold remediation might aid you in understanding its importance for your home following the discovery of fungal growth.
Unlike traditional cleaning efforts that you might find strewn across the internet, mold remediation is a much more involved procedure designed to remove mold colonies and restore the damage they have caused to your home. Our SERVPRO technicians isolate the area and set out to remove the colony, penetrating well beyond the surface mold that you can see and affect the entire hyphae.
However, merely removing the colony is not the full extent of the remediation process, either. SERVPRO applied microbial remediation technicians also have to contend with other symptoms associated with the presence of fungal growth. For starters, finding where the moisture that allowed the spores to seat originated from and a plan to stop this persistent dampness.
Secondly, with a harsh musty odor that is typical of mold colonies growing in homes, deodorization is a requirement as well. Removing this sometimes harsh odor requires the removal of both the moisture and the mold itself, followed by specialized equipment to neutralize the odor molecules in the area. HEPA filtered air scrubbers are integral devices for purging the ambient air of spores and floating particulates. Our AMRT technicians also apply an antimicrobial formulation to inhibit future mold eruptions.
Our remediation process might not be widely understood or known for those that are just experiencing mold growth for the first time in their homes, but now you should have a better idea of what all happens. Our dedicated and certified SERVPRO of Nashua remediation specialists are available 24/7 by calling (603) 889-2311.
