Mold Remediation in a New Haven Home

SERVPRO suggests to homeowners in the New Haven area to regulate their indoor environment when away for a number of days. Humidity can build up rapidly, especially in the summer season, and encourage dormant mold spores to germinate and stain the baseboards and wainscotting, as witnessed in the Before Photo. Fortunately, by following the guidelines and best practices for mold remediation, as declared by the IICRC Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration, we can remove the mold growth safely. Since the hyphae have not penetrated deeply into the wood, we can gently use a small soda-blasting device that abraids the surface to remove the fungi. Close by is a HEPA air scrubber to capture airborne spores and particles. Finishing the job with a biocide spray can help to prevent future infestations of mold. The After Photo shows how we can restore the area to a preloss condition, without the need for any demolition and replacement of materials. Our customers greatly appreciate our efforts, so can you!
