Mold Remediation Process for Jacksonville Homes

When beginning mold remediation for Jacksonville homes, SERVPRO prioritizes any effort to limit further damage to the household.

SERVPRO Offers Consistent Mold Remediation

The due process for remediating after mold damage might change from one property to another, but the core elements vary little. Combining the experience of remediators with our general contractor license for repairs and reconstruction, we provide a full-service approach rooted in several fundamental recovery actions.

Establishing Containment 

When beginning mold remediation for Jacksonville homes, SERVPRO prioritizes any effort to limit further damage to the household. Our greatest action to combat spore activity and migration is the erection of containment barriers. When combined with the efforts of HEPA air scrubbers and negative pressure machines, these physical structures are the best defense for a property in the early remediation stages.

Focusing on a Dry Environment 

Much like an urgent need to protect the structure from migrating microbes, SERVPRO IICRC trained professionals must also take direct action for moisture damage and damp pockets. Humidity and moist materials make a suitable climate to facilitate mold growth. Considerable focus is necessary to fully dry the property to acceptable ranges, using many tools like:

• Air movers
• Dehumidifiers
• Heaters
• Negative pressure

Clearing Settled Spores

Settled spores are cleaned from surfaces, typically with HEPA vacuums. Because these settle downward, technicians of our team will clean from the top of a surface towards its base. Often, cleaning in this manner happens over several rounds of the same action.

Removing Materials as Needed

When exposed materials have become too badly damaged and impacted by infestations, such as most porous hosting elements, professionals on our roster must discard them. We conduct controlled demolition to preserve all the building materials possible.

Cleaning and restoring your home after mold and microbial threats typically involves these actions. The fundamental approaches can effectively reduce active organisms and their impact on a structure.
