Call a Mold Remediation Team in Gorman if You Suspect Mold

Mold can grow for a while in a Gorman home before its homeowner notices it. Once it becomes visible, the best course of action is to call a professional restoration team. Even before you see mold on your walls, you might encounter discoloration in ceiling tiles or a musty odor when you enter the area. It is better to be proactive and call the experts instead of waiting for a full-blown mold infestation.

In Gorman, a mold damage assessment is possible thanks to SERVPRO and our certified team of experts. We train with leaders in the water restoration industry to learn the latest techniques and advances in mold damage restoration. Despite do-it-yourself solutions you may find on the internet, it is best to invite us into your home and let us determine if mold is present, what type of mold it is, and the best course of action to remove it.

Mold can have adverse health effects for you and your family, which is why you want to avoid its growth as much as possible. At its most basic level, try to limit excess humidity from dripping appliances and pipes and be vigilant of any leaking windows or ceilings. Should you find mold growing, there are some steps you can take to control it:

• Avoid cross-contamination by staying outside of affected areas
• Limit air circulation by turning off ventilation and fans
• Call an expert team like SERVPRO to get it under control
• Do not touch the mold or apply homemade cleaning solutions to it; let our IICRC trained experts handle it
