Mold Remediation
When it comes to mold, there are not many required conditions in allowing it to grow. Areas of the home, including attics, basements, and garages, are perfect breeding grounds for bacteria to accumulate and develop mold spores. However, it has the ability to permeate in the air by releasing its spores, causing a dangerous health risk for you and your family. This is especially true for sensitive individuals including babies, the elderly, and pets.
However, Water Damage Drying Services ensures the safety of all individuals residing in the home or building by using personal protective equipment (PPE). Powerful but safe products will also be used to effectively eliminate all cases of mold growth and secure high risk areas for the future.

Mold Cleanup – What to Do:
- Call Water Damage Drying Services right away in order to contain the mold within the affected area.
- Close all windows and doors if there are high humidity levels outside.
- Secure all sources of moisture by allowing for proper air circulation. Turn on the fans and HVAC system.
- Remove any condensation or moisture that might be lingering on any unaffected walls. This lowers the risk of spreading the mold.
- Always wear protective clothing when present around the mold. That includes a mask, eye wear, and gloves.
- Inspect other areas that may be prone to mold, such as: crawlspaces, basement corners, on the ceiling, and other dark, moist areas.
Mold Removal – What NOT to Do:
- Never use any home remedies to try to clean the mold yourself. Any combined chemicals or using bleach alone will only irritate it and spread it further.
- Avoid all direct contact with mold as it has the potential to cause severe illness.
- Do not disturb any mold that is present, including cleaning, touching, drying, or covering the mold.
- Do not try to paint or caulk the affected surfaces that are damaged by mold.
