Call on SERVPRO for Mold Remediation for Your Home or Business
Many factors can add or detract from the overall appeal of the interior of a home. One of which is indoor air quality. Sometimes odors can simply be the result of inadequate housekeeping, or poor air circulation, or a moisture problem leading to hidden mold growth.
The musty odor in your Crestview home may be mold. The need for a food source and moisture for mold spores to germinate into patches of a mold is well known. What is not readily known is that even high levels of humidity can produce sufficient moisture for this growth to start and flourish. SERVPRO is a leader in the mold remediation industry. Our years of service, excellent company training combined with IICRC certifications and equipment allow us to serve you in the best way possible.
Once the moisture or water leak has been eliminated, then the mold remediation process can move forward. We carefully assess the affected environment and suggest the best course of action for you. Usually, insurance policies do not cover mold remediation unless a specific rider is added to your contract. However, the cause of the moisture may open a door to coverage. Talk with your agent concerning coverage. We are always willing to cooperate with you and your insurance company to remedy the mold problem in the most economical and convenient way.
Before we have removed all visible signs of a mold infestation, we may utilize various instruments for detecting hidden pockets of moisture that may be harboring mold colonies. These may include thermal hygrometers, infrared cameras, and moisture sensors. Our SERVPRO technicians will apply antifungal agents when appropriate to help prevent future infestations that may lead to adverse health effects.
