SERVPRO helps reduce the risk of Bellmore mold regrowth

If you spot fungal growth in your house, it is essential to deal with it quickly. If you see patches of fungus or water damage stains, it is best to call SERVPRO immediately to assess the situation.

If you are looking for mold removal companies in Bellmore, it is best to choose one that pays proper attention to moisture testing. Mold needs moisture to grow, as well as an organic food source which unfortunately includes:

• Carpets and rugs.
• Drapes and soft furnishings.
• Paper products or canvases.
• Wallpaper, plaster, and drywall.
  

Because mold can live on any of these sources, and because it occurs naturally, it is not possible to completely eradicate mold. However, it is possible to discourage it from growing back. If we can remove the water source, mold cannot grow. That is why SERVPRO techs carries out moisture testing using moisture probes and meters. We also measure humidity. Then we dry the area until the readings look good.
