Service Areas
Have a Mold Problem?
Every residential or commercial property in Chicago’s northwest suburbs has the potential for mold growth and damage. Plumbing and roof leaks are common sources of the moisture mold needs to multiply. Failure to dry out water-damaged building materials or contents within 24 to 48 hours also gives mold spores time to absorb the moisture that accelerates its life cycle.
Trusted Mold Remediation
SERVPRO of Buffalo Grove / Lake Zurich can help when mold damage exposes the structural components of your home or business to progressive microbial-based deterioration. Removing active mold colonies and reducing mold spore quantities to normal levels also helps decrease the possibility that mold and the toxins some strains produce might cause irritation and unwanted reactions in susceptible individuals sensitive or allergic to moldy residues.
Our IICRC-trained Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians follow EPA-developed protocols to locate, contain, and remove molds and infested materials safely. Innovative techniques such as soda blasting can remediate some porous materials, and treatment with EPA-antimicrobials inhibits mold re-growth on previously affected surfaces.
What Is the Mold Remediation Process?
Air Filtration
Our specialized filtration equipment allows our professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.
Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to treat mold colonies. When necessary to remediate heavy mold growth, our mold removal process includes the removal and disposal of mold-infested porous materials such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation.
Cleaning
Our professionals clean the structural elements that were infected by mold such as flooring, framing, fixtures, HVAC and mechanical systems. We will also work to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) of the space. Other items may also require extra attention after a mold infestation, including curtains, décor and important documents.
Restoration
Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet. It may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in your home.
Emergency Contact
The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call us. Our specialist will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel needed for you and your home.
Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment
Our professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Using a variety of technologies, we can detect mold and locate any hidden water sources so the mold will not return once the area is cleaned and the mold removal process has been completed.
Mold Containment
We use various containment procedures to prevent the spread and cross-contamination of mold. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread as our professionals work to mitigate your mold problem.
