Chatham Mold Removal and Remediation Process
SERVPRO of Morristown will create a unique plan to remove mold and mildew in your Chatham property. But, the general mold removal process still remains the same.
Step 1: Mold Damage Inspection & Assessment
A Project Manager will inspect your property for visible signs of mold and create a remediation plan. SERVPRO of Morristown does not provide mold testing services.
Step 2: Mold Containment
Before starting the process, SERVPRO of Morristown takes steps to prevent the spread of mold around your home or business during the remediation process. This may include utilization of negative air chambers and turning off the HVAC system on your property.
Step 3: Air Filtration
Our team uses air scrubbers and HEPA vacuums to capture mold spores in the air or on materials. This also helps to prevent the spread of mold during the cleaning process.
Step 4: Mold Removal & Removing Mold Damaged Materials
Depending on the materials affected by mold, our team will use different techniques as necessary. Porous materials like drywall and carpeting may need to be removed and disposed of to prevent the re-occurrence of mold. Our team also utilizes antifungal and antibacterial to eliminate mold colonies and prevent new ones from forming.
Step 5: Cleaning and Sanitizing
In this step, our team cleans and sanitizes to remove odors or treat belongings that have been affected by mold.
Step 6: Restoration
Depending on the extent of your mold cleaning in Chatham, there may be repairs needed after drywall is removed or carpeting ripped up. Our in house construction division can take over as needed for complete restoration.
Quick Facts About Mold
When water intrudes into your property in Chatham, mold growth can start in as little as 48 hours. Consider the following mold facts:
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
- Mold spores are microscopic, float along in the air, and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
- Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise the mold may return.
- Mold often produces a strong, musty odor, and that odor can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
Mold: Frequently Asked Questions
As your local mold removal company near Chatham, NJ, our team receives many questions regarding the mold damage restoration process and more. Here, we've answered the top 4 questions about SERVPRO's mold services in Chatham.
Does SERVPRO provide mold testing?
No, we do not. We only perform inspections and provide estimates for visible mold in your Chatham, NJ property.
How much does mold removal in Chatham NJ cost?
This is dependent on how much mold is in your property, what building materials are affected, and where the mold is located. Since there are so many variables, mold removal can cost anywhere from $700 to $10,000+.
SERVPRO of Morristown provides free mold inspections and estimates to home and business owners.
Can I remove mold myself?
While you may find many 'how-to' guides online on how to remove mold yourself, it's not usually advised. This is because if you don't address all active mold spores on building materials or in the air the mold problem can quickly return. This is the same if you have a moisture problem left unaddressed, which will continually cause mold to grow.
Is mold covered by insurance?
Unfortunately mold removal isn't usually covered by insurance, unless immediately related to an existing water damage claim. This is because insurance covers damages which are only sudden and unforeseen, and this isn't usually the case for mold.
