SERVPRO Techs Have the Training and Equipment to Handle All Aspects of Mold Remediation in Marysville Homes
Removal of the dried residues left behind by mold infestations in Marysville houses can be a tricky business to clear safely. Improper techniques can make spores airborne and send the issue to another area of the home.
SERVPRO technicians have comprehensive training for handling mold damage in Marysville properties, including the final cleanup of any visible colonies. The remediation process may include the disposal of building materials damaged by mold. Still, certain areas of the structure, such as load-bearing beams, cannot get removed so simply and need cleaning and treatment against the return of the problem.
Different Types of Abatement
Mold requires moisture, humid conditions to exist. Once the SERVPRO techs deploy their drying equipment and rapidly lower the interior humidity levels, it is unsustainable for the existing colonies resulting in death and drying out. What is left is a flakey, sticky residue on surfaces. The removal may entail any of the following methods or a combination thereof:
- Hand scraping and using a hand vac with HEPA filtration
- Ice or soda blasting
- Sponge blasting
When using any removal method, the technicians determine what surface the dried matter is upon and how to remove it that will not mar the surface. For example, ice blasting sounds harsh, but the CO2 pellets return to their gaseous state upon striking a target. Soda blasting is another powerful yet gentle method for getting rid of stuck-on residues. When the techs use hand scraping, they are very detailed and organized to ensure they get all the remaining mold left.
Afterward, treatment with SERVPRO's exclusive antimicrobial cleaners and sealants ensures no return of the problem.
