Even if you take all the steps to prevent mold, it can sometimes still make its way in your home. If you discover mold, call SERVPRO to remediate.

Rely on SERVPRO When You Discover Mold in Your Home

In books, on the internet, and even in SERVPRO website content, there is a wealth of information available for those who wish to safeguard their homes against mold. Many things can help to prevent mold from reaching your doorstep, and following these guidelines is advisable for the long-term health of your home. However, unfortunately, even the most responsible of Naples homeowners can be hit by mold damage. Even if you did everything right, some types of mold are so adaptable that they can take root almost everywhere, and may start to grow and spread in your home. So, what can you do?

Most importantly, you should not let up on the preventative steps you have taken against mold damage in your Naples home. Not only should these significantly reduce the risk of future and concurrent mold infestations in the home, but they should also slow the spread of any existing colonies. If your home is kept dry and sanitary, the mold should grow very slowly. If you have mold-resistant paints and finishes on objects and surfaces in your home, these should help to limit the spread of mold to a smaller area.

The next step is to call SERVPRO. You should not worry about costs - for a well-kept, clean, and upstanding home, most of our work is completed quickly and easily. Many cases we see in clean, dry homes shrivel up and die on their own, only leaving us the task of sanitary cleanup. Calling us is important because we can determine if anything greater caused the infestation to grow and because we can safely and smoothly handle mold damage of any caliber. If, say, the problem is much larger than initially thought, we can take care of it before it has a chance to get any worse.
