SERVPRO Can Dramatically Reduce Mold Issues in your Seal Beach Home through Expert Remediation
Coastal properties are more likely to be exposed to moist air and heavy rainfall. These factors can lead to mold growth in your home, which starts as microscopic spores and grows into larger colonies. Molds colonies can cause odor problems and use enzymes to break down organic compounds like sheetrock.
The purpose of mold remediation in your Seal Beach home is to reduce spores' growth rate and remove infested materials. It is impossible to remove mold spores from the house altogether as these are a natural part of an indoor environment. The key is to reduce the growth rate of spores, which is most achievable by correcting your home's moisture problem.
- Finding the source of damp spots is essential to reducing mold growth. These can be insufficient insulation, structural exposure, or plumbing issues.
- Correcting the moisture problem can involve controlling humidity using desiccant or refrigerant dehumidifiers.
- Removing and disposing of infested materials is vital to controlling an overall microbial growth issue.
