SERVPRO Is Ready to Help You with the Mold Damage Restoration in Your Hampstead Residence! 

A leaking pipe inside of your home could cause havoc for many reasons, including microbial growth. Many individuals do not know that it takes less than 72 hours for microbial activity to begin when mold spores are introduced to moisture. Furthermore, many homeowners do not know that mold spores are omnipresent, and any introduction of excess water is likely to lead to the growth of a colony. 

In the case of finding mold damage in your Hampstead home, the best thing you can do is reach out for help immediately. Even if you do not see physical mold, but you do have a lengthy water accident in your home, it could be wise to reach out for help to ensure the moisture levels in your home are appropriate. Should you catch a musty scent while in your basement after a water accident, it could be an indication of microbial activity. 

Here at SERVPRO, our techs are expertly trained to handle mold colonies. For example, imagine that a leaking pipe in your basement has caused mold damage to form in a wall cavity. Leaving it unchecked could cause health effects and cause long-term damage to the structure of your home. However, calling SERVPRO can help minimize the problem immediately. 

Once inside of your home and in your basement, our technicians can: 

• Set up plastic-sheeting and close ventilated spaces off to reduce the chances of active spores spreading
• Make flood cuts to remove potentially contaminated material and expose the colony 
• Sanitize and scrub at the colony before using antifungal agents to help prevent regrowth

If you need mold remediation, do not wait. Call SERVPRO of Pender / West Onslow Counties by dialing (910) 319-0600. We can help you!
