Mold can be a nasty visitor to your home, and go unannounced and unnoticed for days or weeks before you realize it's there. Many home owners choose to ignore the signs of mold, believing that the effects are not a big deal. When ignoring the signs of mold, you can not only damage your property but your health - Mold contaminates your clean air in your entire living space. If you have a feeling that your home could be affected, let the professionals at SERVPRO of NW Genesee County handle the job of getting rid of it all at once.

Mold is very sensitive to deal with - the growth can spread very fast if it’s not dealt with in the correct way. Mold spores can become airborne and attach to other things in your home. Cleaning mold spores can be disturbed through the cleanup process and should be contained so it can’t spread into your home. At SERVPRO of NW Genesee County our professionals are IICRC-certified, and trained in every aspect of the removal and treatment of mold.

The beginning stages of the removal process is the containment of the area. We create a physical barrier using plastic sheeting. When covering the area, we also focus on covering doors and air vents in the area so the affected air doesn’t travel in to other areas of your home. The next step is to place air movement machines that use negative air to filter the contaminants out of the air. These machines have powerful HEPA filters that draw in the negative air and the vent it outside your property using a hose.

We are here for any size mold situation 24 hours a day and 7 days a week! Call Today- 810-732-3298
