Mold Remediation and Restoration

Local and state laws may require a specific inspection and documentation protocol based on the size of the affected area. We can advise you on this process, providing guidance based on your unique situation.

With so many homes and businesses owners who battle moisture and dampness on their property which can lead to the colonization and spreading of mold organisms, our team remains well prepared.  Every member of our crew is well trained in mold remediation, and then tested, and certified by the Institute for Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC) as an Applied Microbial Remediation Technician.  We are also licensed by the State of New York as a Mold Assessment and Remediation Contractor.

Our entire SERVPRO team understands how quickly mold growth can spread throughout your home or business and the costly damage it can cause. We set up containment barriers the moment we arrive to help prevent the spread of mold and protect other areas of your property and its contents from mold damage. Our professionals can even help to provide property owners from Millbrook to Pine Plains solutions for the persistent dampness and moisture that can facilitate mold growth.  No matter when you discover mold growth in your home or business, we have a 24/7 response to get our IICRC-Certified remediation specialists to your property quickly.

Understanding Mold

Confusion and misunderstanding surround the topic of mold and mold remediation. Some restoration businesses even make claims to remove all mold from a building. This is a fallacy. Mold spores occur naturally almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. These microscopic spores float along in the air and can enter a home or business through windows and HVAC systems. Consider these facts:

  • Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
  • Mold spores are microscopic and 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 can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
  • Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
