Mold is not something we treat lightly here at SERVPRO of North Durham. Call our team today.

Acting quickly to remediate mold damage is vital for Durham commercial properties. 

Storm damage or lingering moisture can be the cause and ultimate effect of mold damage on office spaces throughout the greater Durham area. Even with large capacity air scrubbing and HEPA filtration capabilities, the spread of microbial threats can be swift and destructive. 

Surface Treatments for Light Mold Damage 

Mold remediation for Durham offices and commercial properties can be partly managed quickly with antimicrobial solutions, biocides, and sporicidal cleaners. Scrubbing surfaces and contents with these potent remediation products can neutralize spores. 

Relocating Contents and Documents from the Damage Area 

Protecting contents and items from the office rooms is a vital element of the mold remediation process. Ideally, much of the affected items can be relocated to an area safe from spreading microbes and odors within the facility. 

Aggressive Remediation Tactics for Hazardous Conditions

When surface treatment strategies are not effective and more needs to be done to remediate mold growth, there are several strategies to accomplish this:

• Sanding – Hand sanding and power sanding are good options when the underlying material can be protected, but surface treatment options are ineffective. 

• Dry Ice Pellet Blasting – Media blasting is a common approach for microbial damage penetrating the surface of construction elements like drywall and wood fixtures. 

• Controlled Demolition – This approach is often one of the final choices made in managing mold damage. Removing deteriorating building materials prevents the continued spread of microbial threats throughout the building. 

Any office space can be overwhelmed by spreading mold organisms. As challenging and stressful as microbial threats can be for a commercial property, having a large loss provider in our SERVPRO of North Durham team can help perform the necessary remediation tactics at the appropriate times.
