Combating Mold Damage In Your Nashville Residence

Tackle Mold in Your Nashville Home with The Help of SERVPRO

No homeowner is sufficiently prepared for finding mold or fungus growing in livable areas of their Nashville house. While there are undoubtedly several steps that could have been taken before now to try to avoid such an occurrence, nothing is ever full proof, and most people do not consider the possibility of fungal growth until long after it has reared its ugly head.

The trouble with encountering mold damage in your Nashville home extends far beyond the fact that it could cause health effects. In fact, this is often a clear indication of a broader problem with the structural integrity of your home, allowing water to get into areas where it should not be present. Since mold needs moisture and higher temperatures to thrive, there are significant portions of the year in the area where conditions are easily met to accommodate the growth of a colony in your house.

Our SERVPRO IICRC certified remediation specialists have been extensively trained to handle all kinds of mold that might grow in commercial and residential properties. With the right tools and expertise, our team can quickly get to work on the removal of the colonies and the neutralization of active spores trying to spread throughout the affected area to form new colonies and seat more organisms that require removal.

Once our SERVPRO team dons the appropriate personal protective gear, we get to work on quarantining the affected area to prevent the spread of spores. The process ensures that when scrubbers get used to clean the surfaces harboring mold colonies that they do not have an opportunity to spread elsewhere.

Locating the source of the mold problem is an essential step in the remediation process. Finding these vulnerable areas can allow our team to seal off access points that can keep this region of your home drier in the future, successfully helping to prevent future growth.
