SERVPRO Evaluates Infestations in Saugus Properties to Determine the Best Actions

Sometimes, mold might develop in your property inexplicably, especially if there is no noticeable water intrusion. In such a case, you might feel that you only need to apply a professional product with antimicrobial properties to the visible mold to eliminate it. However, this approach is less likely to bear fruit.

Establishing the underlying issues fueling mold growth is essential before embarking on mold remediation at your Saugus property. Our SERVPRO technicians ascertain whether your property has undiscovered moisture issues such as leaks in pipes or the air conditioning system.

Protocols for Mold Remediation

Our SERVPRO technicians also take numerous steps to resolve the mold infestation. Typical steps for average infestations are:

• Drying all wet materials at the residence
• Removing heavily infested materials, especially if they are porous
• Applying antimicrobial products to the affected surfaces

However, severe mold requires advanced processes to eradicate it.  Cleaning specialized house installations such as HVAC systems and using sophisticated cleaning methods like soda blasting to remove mold residues are typical responses.
