Mold Remediation and Restoration

Local and state laws may require a specific inspection and documentation protocol based on the size of the affected area. We can advise you on this process, providing guidance based on your unique situation.

It only takes a small water leak, or even excess humidity, for mold to form in your home or business. Then, mold can spread quickly through the property in as little as 48 hours. Mold can produce allergens and irritants, and it has the potential to cause other health effects. For your safety leave the removal of mold to the professionals. If you think your home or business may possibly have a mold problem, we can inspect and assess your property using our specialized training, equipment, and expertise to remove any mold that is found. At SERVPRO of West Covina honesty is always in the fore-front and if no serious issue is discovered and a mere change of habits including better ventilation is necessary, we will convey those findings as well. It is always better to be well informed and safe by catching a problem at the beginning if at all possible, rather than to allow weeks, months or even years to pass only to discover later the problem has intensified. Our SOCAL properties are some of our best investments, so protecting our property is a high priority. We encourage you to allow our SERVPRO of West Covina Team to assist you with that endeavor.

Understanding Mold

Microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, outdoors and indoors, making it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Some restoration businesses advertise “mold removal” and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts:

  • Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
  • Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
  • Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
  • Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
  • Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
  • Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
