Lafayette Businesses Rely on SERVPRO for Mold Damage Mitigation
Discovering mold damage at your commercial property in Lafayette is not a good sign by any means. Unmitigated mold can spread quickly throughout the structure and can cause health effects as well. SERVPRO mold specialists can help you mitigate the problem safely and efficiently.
Mold damage to your Lafayette establishment is not merely an aesthetic issue; it can cause significant structural damage as well. SERVPRO technicians employ a five-point strategy recommended by IICRC called the S520 Mold Remediation Standard. It is one of the most exhaustive methods of mold remediation.
The SERVPRO Mold Remediation Strategy for Lafayette Properties
Mold remediation from Lafayette commercial spaces is done using the following five principal steps:
- Provide a safe environment- Safety is paramount while dealing with mold damage. SERVPRO uses best safety practices such as establishing containment zones to limit mold exposure during the remediation process.
- Proper documentation- Technicians document everything, including the extent of contamination, level of moisture, among other details, during a mold inspection. The remediation is based on the specifics noted during documentation.
- Containment- Containing the damaged area is essential as mold spores are airborne. SERVPRO mold specialists use physical barriers and negative air pressure to contain the mold and prevent the spores from spreading to uncontaminated areas.
- Remove contamination- If the contamination is extensive and cleaning is not an option, SERVPRO tech can physically remove the contaminated object for safe disposal. Porous materials such as drywall, clothing items, and upholstery might need to be eliminated if contamination is extensive.
- Correct the moisture problem- Mold loves moisture. If there are any moisture issues, SERVPRO technicians deal with them to bring the moisture level back to normal.
