Mold Abatement

"It is very important that a mold concern should be investigated with a trained and reliable company. Do not risk your health by not getting it professionally investigated"

Mold is a very serious concern. If you suspect mold growth in your home or property, it is very important that you get the areas of concern tested. Great American Restoration takes specialty air and swab tests to be certain of the presence of mold. A musty or earthy smell often indicates the presence of mold. Discoloration and spores on walls is also a sign of mold. Exposure to mold can result in critical health risks and the consequences can be great if left untreated.

Mold and mildew often occur after a water intrusion. Delay in removing the water and promptly restoring the affected areas could lead to serious structural property damage and mold growth. Stopping the flow of water and thoroughly drying affected materials is crucial in the prevention of mold growth. Moisture in the home is one of the main causes of mold growth. Mold requires moisture to mature and can develop within 24 to 48 hours after a water incident. Once the water is extracted, the remaining ambient moisture must be removed through evaporation and dehumidification. Great American Restoration also uses an antimicrobial formula to combat the mold growth that may have already occurred.
