Mold can grow on any organic substance if moisture and oxygen are present. There are different molds that can grow on wood, paper, foods, carpet, and insulation. Molds make spores that usually cannot be seen without magnification.
In an usual situation, SERVPRO of Athens professionals inspect the structure for any visible signs of mold and remove the excess spores in order to return the area back to normal levels. Some cases require the assistance of an Indoor Air Quality/ Environmental Professional (IEP) with specialized equipment and services needed to repair the structure. IEPs can test and clear a structure for mold by collecting air and surface samples. The results can determine whether the mold has been successfully decontaminated. SERVPRO of Athens handles mold remediation work on a daily basis and knows when prompt action is needed to prevent further mold growth. We are trained to handle microbial problems in structures by promptly drying wet or damp materials according to the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification. SERVPRO of Athens is Certified Mold through IAQA.
