Fast mold remediation is a must for the safety of your home and family. SERVPRO technicians are IICRC certified and are experienced for the job.

Long Island City homes with water damage are at risk for mold.

Many people believe that microbial growth only happens with large water intrusion, but the fact is, any moisture can cause mold. Microbes can develop in as little as 24 hours. This means fast mitigation is needed to prevent mold from starting and spreading.

How Does Mold Spread?

Long Island City homes with mold damage are more common than you think. Mold feeds on organic material. As it reproduces, it releases spores into the air. You can’t avoid mold spores, as they are everywhere. The problem is when moisture and spores mix. 

How Does SERVPRO Remediate Microbial Growth? 

Our technicians have access to over 100 proprietary cleaning solutions designed to stop microbial growth. We also:

• Use a variety of sanitization methods such as foggers, sponges, and sprayers
• Employ technicians certified and educated in mold removal
• Inhibit microbial growth quickly with commercial structural drying equipment
• Odor Control Technicians use EPA registered antimicrobial and ULV foggers to eliminate odors

Preventing mold from returning means ensuring the moisture gets removed. Keeping areas like attics and crawl spaces well ventilated is a must. If you think you have a mold problem, contact SERVPRO of Long Island City at (718) 440-6994 for professional mold damage remediation.
