Removing Mold From Your Home

Keeping your Pensacola home free of mold is an ongoing effort, as this is a naturally humid area of the country. Understanding the conditions in which this fungus can begin to grow and thrive can help you to prevent these environments in your home. While there is nothing that is entirely uncommon about mold, it is also not something that you should allow to grow freely, even in areas of your house that are rarely if ever used.

A common area for mold damage to occur in your Pensacola home is in the basement. The block and concrete typically used to construct a foundation tend to become saturated and stay moist for longer than other materials do. These wetter conditions are a breeding ground for fungus of all kinds, and the removal of this fungus can prove extremely problematic.

Fortunately, SERVPRO licensed professionals we employ are remediation experts. They can identify the extent of the spread and create a concise and direct plan to remove the mold colonies and prevent them from continuing to grow and thrive in your home. To neutralize the spores from the existing colonies, our Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians use negative air chambers and air scrubbers.

Upon completely removing the colonies that have formed throughout the affected area, the final step is to prevent this from reoccurring. The assessment determines where the moisture in the air and materials in the area is coming from and removing it. Our SERVPRO professionals are then able to walk you through a permanent solution to keep your humidity and moisture levels down so that naturally, airborne spores do not have the conditions available to form a colony.

The one thing that can be universally agreed on is that mold damage can cause health effects. Trust our IICRC certified technicians to identify the kind of fungus you are dealing with as well as quickly work to remove damage from your home.

At the first sign of mold in your home, you should not hesitate to call our professional emergency response team. We at SERVPRO of West Pensacola are available 24/7 for all of your remediation and restoration needs at (850) 469-1160.
