Is mold growth a recurring issue?

Discovering the presence of mold can be an unpleasant find for any Durham business or premises manager. Treating a microbial growth issue requires professional assistance to avoid recurring problems or spreading throughout the work environment. Many places of work use soft carpets on floors or acoustical ceiling tiles. Both these materials are porous so that they can provide an ideal food supply for fungus and other microbial bacterias. It is not uncommon for businesses to work through microbial growth issues using in-house janitorial teams, but these businesses often find mold recurring in similar spots. Providing safe, sanitary conditions for your staff and customers does not have to be a constant battle. SERVPRO offers professional, commercial mold technicians who can perform an expert inspection of the problem and place the necessary steps for remediation. 

Is it possible to eliminate mold?

Mold spores naturally occur in any indoor environment. Our commercial mold remediation specialists in Durham are capable of bringing microbial growth under control. Remediation can mean removing unpleasant odors, mold colonies, and drying damp spots, or replacing infested materials. Microbes generally only become a problem for business owners when they come into contact with moisture and begin to proliferate, which can quickly get out of control. We have qualified technicians who can demolish infested materials while applying negative air pressure to the areas affected to prevent the spread of mold spores. Once the initial mold colonies are removed, we can use antimicrobial chemicals to avoid spores from building up through growth stages.

What are the steps of mold control?

- Control moisture

- Aggressively remove existing mold colonies

- Demolish and dispose of infested materials
