Mold infestations can creep up on your property. These microscopic organisms thrive in warm, humid conditions and require little light to grow. As a result, mold colonies can crop up in wall cavities, subfloor, attic, or crawlspace. Often visible signs or odors of infestation result from several weeks or months of microbial growth. SERVPRO is a licensed remediation firm that can help eliminate the infestation on your property. 

Enacting mold removal services in Riverhead gives your home the best chance of a full recovery following infestation. There are two parts to returning your home to a preloss condition. The first part is removal which involves physically removing items, belongings, and materials infested with microorganisms. Removing moldy materials can be challenging as removal often disturbs colonies, leading to the release of spores. Spores are the seeds of microbial infestation that can travel on air currents and infest other home areas. Our technicians can help with:

• Mold remediation
• Mold removal
• Mold inspection

Our technicians take care when removing infested materials to reduce the spread of spores in the home. These procedures are broadly known as containment. Containment can involve cleaning rooms, equipment, or clothing when moving from area to area and setting up physical barriers. If extreme measures are required to remove molds - such as controlled demolition of infested drywall- we can deploy damaging air pressure equipment. Negative air pressure machines work similarly to vacuums but are much larger and capable of drawing several cubic feet of air into their filtration ducts. This equipment can help capture spores and prevent them from travelling to unaffected parts of the home. 

• Infested materials must be double sealed before being transported out of the property to reduce cross-contamination. 
• Clothing or fabrics that have signs of mold are often non-salvageable. However, high-value items may be suitable for restoration using Esporta suspension washing systems.
