For mold to seat onto surfaces and contents in your home, it only requires the spores to encounter warmth and moisture. Most Monroe homeowners can attest to the humid heat that affects the area throughout the spring and summer months, leaving a distinct possibility to meet the conditions for mold growth without having a water incident or dampness in your home to trigger it. While typically these humid conditions generate mold in homes that are not temperature regulated, this is not always the case.

Mold damages in your Monroe home pose more than just a threat to the structural integrity of the construction of your house. The presence of fungal growth has gotten attributed to possible health effects for those occupants of your house that get exposed. With this in mind, it is crucial to handle these situations as soon as they get brought to your attention.

Our SERVPRO team can respond quickly to your call and get to work immediately in assessing the damage in the affected areas and sectioning off the damage from the rest of the house to prevent the spread of active spores. This isolation gets accomplished typically with air scrubbers fitted with HEPA filters. These filters trap microscopic spores in the environment and prevent their migration to new areas while remediation is underway.

While removal is a critical component of the remediation process, assessing the source of the problem is often equally as essential. To avoid this same occurrence happening again in the immediate future, our SERVPRO technicians might recommend the continued use of dehumidification equipment in susceptible areas of your house to prevent conditions which allow mold growth.

Dealing with mold in your home is nothing that any homeowner should have to deal with on their own. With the potential health effects and general ineffectiveness of conventional cleaning methods to remove colonies, trust our SERVPRO of Monroe / West Monroe team of applied microbial remediation technicians to help you overcome the damages to your home efficiently. We are available 24/7 at (318) 345-5121.
