Mold after a storm
7/26/2021 (Permalink)
Mold can become a huge problem for homeowners after it goes unnoticed for some time, sometimes in as little as 48 to 72 hours.
If you start noticing a musty odor that was not there before, it may be an indication that mold could be hiding behind drywall and insulation or floors.
SERVPRO of Henry and Spalding Counties and SERVPRO of Clayton County’s technicians have the necessary equipment and training to handle any mold problem, no matter how big or small.
What to Do:
- Stay out of affected areas.
- Turn off the HVAC system and fans.
- Contact a SERVPRO Franchise Professional for mold remediation services.
What NOT to Do:
- Don’t touch or disturb the mold.
- Don’t blow air across any surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth.
- Don’t attempt to dry the area yourself.
- Don’t spray bleach or other disinfectants on the mold.
