SERVPRO Offers Safe and Efficient Mold Remediation to Rocky Point Homes
Mold damage, if not addressed promptly, can lead to major structural integrity issues in your home. It pays to hire professionals like SERVPRO for mold remediation of your Rocky Point home before the problem gets out of control. Mold often grows on organic material such as wood and can quickly start eating it away.
Mold remediation of your Rocky Point home by SERVPRO professionals can help you detect the hidden damage. It is crucial to identify the mold before it can spread throughout the structure and jeopardize the building. As mold spores are airborne, they spread quickly throughout the structure if precautions are not taken during the remediation process. SERVPRO techs use proper safety measures, including containment zones, to prevent it from happening.
What type of Structural Damage do SERVPRO Mold Specialists Observe with Mold in Rocky Point Homes?
SERVPRO techs generally encounter two types of wood rot due to mold damage- dry rot and wet rot. Both these forms of mold damage can weaken the structure of your Rocky Point home. Among the two forms, dry rot is more dangerous and can cause more harm than wet rot.
SERVPRO techs are highly trained in identifying and treating both wet and dry rot due to mold. While dealing with dry rot, SERVPRO mold specialists often need to remove all the damaged timber. The salvageable material is treated with fungicide to prevent the spread of mold. Most dry rot is due to an underlying moisture problem. SERVPRO techs install proper ventilation if the humidity is very high to prevent a recurrence.
Wet rot occurs if the wood contains more than 50% moisture, while dry rot can start even when moisture is significantly lower (about 20%).
