Bow Property Owners Often Turn to SERVPRO for Professional Mold Remediation

Mold is an age-old problem probably because it only needs moisture, a simple source of food like organic dust and ideal temperatures to grow. The ideal temperature range for mold infestation is between 68°F to 86°F. However, some varieties thrive well in temperatures as low as 32°F and others as high as 122°F. So, apart from moisture, the other two factors are readily present in almost every Bow property. A spike in moisture levels, therefore, leads to mold proliferation within a few days.
 
For proper remediation of mold damage in Bow, identifying and fixing the moisture source is essential. This is what determines the effectiveness of the other steps taken. Moisture sources vary in each case. It could be a leak in the plumbing system or improperly disposed rainwater runoff, among other causes. Our SERVPRO technicians inspect your home to establish any issues that might cause excess moisture retention and advise you on the best ways to address them.
 
Although mold can develop anywhere, some areas are more likely to be affected than others. Correct clearing of spores during the remediation process is therefore essential. Minimizing their presence ensures they do not accelerate the next round of infestation, or worse, transfer them to another section of the property that was not affected. Our SERVPRO team takes different approaches to deal with this issue. We can create exclusion zones protected with polyethylene sheets to prevent the transfer of spores. We can also use air scrubbers to deal with airborne spores.
 
Proper drying of the property after completing the cleanup exercise is necessary since the use of cleaning agents introduces moisture in the environment. However, the usual drying methods such as setting up air movers could spread spores to other less contaminated areas. Our SERVPRO technicians rely on dehumidifiers with limited airflow when drying your property. If necessary, we can also remove any portable materials that absorb moisture during cleanup for drying outside the property. Moving them helps speed up the drying process.
