Eliminating Odors after Mold Damage in Miramar Beach

SERVPRO's Methods and Equipment Neutralize Mold Odors
One of the most telling signs of mold damage in Miramar Beach is the smell - some species of mold release strong, musty odors that can permeate walls and spread throughout the entire home. Many unqualified mold removal companies fail to remove odors along with the infestation, leaving behind a prominent tell-tale of damage that is likely to be quickly noticed by guests. SERVPRO technicians always take care to eliminate mold odors quickly and thoroughly to get your home back to the way it was before the damage. "Like it never even happened."
Why The Smell?
Most types of mold damage common in Miramar Beach create odors of some kind. While the exact chemical composition and nature of these smells can vary depending on the species responsible for them, available food sources and a range of other factors, most odors of this variety appear musty and foul. These gases are natural by-products of the fungi's metabolic processes, being released into the atmosphere as waste while they eat away at your home. While typically non-toxic, some types of emissions can also cause health effects for residents. Even after the mold goes away, these odors can linger, as microscopic particles can easily lodge themselves into walls and ceilings.
How Does SERVPRO Help?
We utilize a set of specially-designed tools and techniques to eliminate odors through processes that emulate the natural spread of gases and particles and work their way into even the deepest corners of your home. Our powerful thermal fogging machines can neutralize entire rooms of odors at once, providing a fast and effective remedy for most infestations. For colonies located in more hard-to-reach spots that cannot be accessed with large fogging devices, we bring in ultra-low volume foggers that can target crawlspaces and other compact environments. We pledge to eliminate all odors in the home, no matter where they are located or how hard they are to reach.
During the cleanup and removal phases of the mold remediation service, we often set up HEPA and activated carbon filters to both capture spores and particulates as small as 0.03 microns and to chemically alter the offensive compounds.
