SERVPRO in Jamesport Use a Variety of Chemical Agents to Aid the Mold Removal Process.

Mold can quickly infest and spread through materials. Usually, the culprit behind a mold infestation is a moisture problem. Moisture can build up in certain parts of your home, providing conditions for microorganisms to grow. If you see or smell mold in your property, it is enough to justify bringing in a professional technician to help you deal with:

• Mold assessments
• Mold remediation
• Mold clean up

One of the challenges to effective mold remediation in your Jamesport home is the short life cycle of fungi. A mold spore can develop into a full-sized colony and begin emitting other mold spores within seventy-two hours. These colonies have digestive enzymes that start to break down organic matter causing long-term damage. A mold remediation project can take several weeks, which means there is a risk of mold regrowth during the removal process. To stay ahead of fast-growing mold colonies, it is often vital to use chemical action that prevents mold from passing through its stages of growth. 

• Borax is a natural mold killer that is diluted with water. The advantage of using Borax is that it does not emit toxic fumes or chemicals into an indoor environment.
• Ammonia can be used to dislodge and destroy mold growth from dense, hard surfaces like kitchen worktops, metals, and appliances. 
• Hydrogen Peroxide, also known as household bleach, is normally used to kill bacterias but is also effective as an antimicrobial chemical.
