Summer Mold Concerns: SERVPRO® Expert Mold Removal and Remediation Services
7/9/2024 (Permalink)
Mold Prevention Tip for Summer
At SERVPRO® of North Lauderdale/West Tamarac, we understand the unique challenges of mold growth during the summer months, especially with extreme heat and hurricane season. Mold can quickly become a problem in these conditions, but with our specialized mold removal and remediation services, we’re here to protect your home and health. Additionally, our comprehensive restoration services address mold and water damage by drying the structure, stabilizing building materials, sanitizing affected areas, deodorizing materials, and using specialized equipment for dehumidification.
Spotting Mold in Your Home
During summer, be vigilant for signs of mold, such as musty odors, visible mold growth (commonly green, black, or white patches), water stains, or allergic reactions like sneezing or coughing. Mold testing can be relevant in identifying mold issues, although it may not be necessary in all cases. High humidity and moisture from summer rains or hurricanes create ideal conditions for mold to thrive. Addressing a mold problem quickly is crucial to prevent further damage and mitigate the spread.
Health Risks Associated with Mold
Mold can trigger allergies and respiratory issues, aggravating conditions such as asthma. For individuals with chronic lung disease, mold exposure can lead to more severe effects, including lung infections. Promptly addressing mold growth is essential to maintaining a healthy indoor environment, especially when humidity levels rise during summer. Maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial to mitigate the health risks associated with mold.
SERVPRO’s Mold Remediation Process
At SERVPRO of North Lauderdale/West Tamarac, we employ a comprehensive mold removal process tailored to summer conditions:
- Assessment and Inspection: Our certified technicians conduct thorough assessments to identify mold growth and any underlying water damage, crucial after summer storms.
- Containment: Advanced containment techniques prevent mold spores from spreading to unaffected areas during removal. It is advisable to turn off the HVAC system until a professional can inspect it to prevent the spread of mold spores and further damage.
- Air Filtration: High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration devices effectively capture mold spores from the air.
- Removal and Cleanup: We safely remove and dispose of mold-infested materials, such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation. Our process of removing mold is thorough, ensuring all affected areas are meticulously cleaned and sanitized. SERVPRO's expertise in mold cleanup ensures that your home is safe and mold-free.
- Restoration: Our team restores your property to its pre-damage condition, ensuring it’s safe and mold-free.

The Environmental Protection Agency provides guidelines on mold testing and removal, which we follow to ensure thorough and safe remediation.
Preventing Future Mold Growth
Prevention is key to avoiding recurring mold problems:
- Monitor Humidity: Keep indoor humidity levels below 60% with dehumidifiers if necessary. Controlling excessive moisture is crucial to prevent mold growth.
- Address Water Intrusion: Promptly repair leaks, roof damage, or flooding, common during hurricanes and summer storms. Mold can also grow on ceiling tiles if there is excessive moisture.
- Fix Plumbing Leaks: Address plumbing leaks immediately to prevent significant water damage and potential mold growth.

Water Restoration Services: The Urgency of Addressing Water Damage and Why Quick Action Matters
6/24/2024 (Permalink)
Water Damage and Restoration
Disaster strikes when water damage occurs, making it one of the most challenging issues a property owner can face. Whether it’s from a burst pipe, a leaking roof, or a natural disaster, the consequences of water damage can be far-reaching and costly if not addressed promptly. Contaminated water, also known as Category 3 Water or 'black water', includes sources such as sewage, storm surge, and standing water, and contains unsanitary agents, harmful bacteria, and fungi, posing severe discomfort or sickness. At SERVPRO of North Lauderdale/West Tamarac, we understand the urgency of such situations and are committed to providing swift and effective restoration services to mitigate damage and restore your property to its preloss condition.
Why Quick Action is Crucial
When water infiltrates your home or business, time is of the essence. The longer water sits, the more damage it can cause. Here are some critical reasons why addressing water damage immediately is essential:
Prevent Structural Damage: Water can weaken the structural integrity of your property. Wood can warp, drywall can deteriorate, and foundations can crack. Immediate action helps prevent these severe consequences.
Avoid Mold Growth: Mold thrives in moist environments and can begin to grow within 24-48 hours after water exposure. Mold not only damages surfaces but can also pose serious health risks to you and your family. Rapid water removal and drying can present mold infestation. Monitoring the drying process is crucial to ensure moisture levels are stabilized below the threshold for microbial amplification.
Reduce Restoration Costs: The longer water damage goes unaddressed, the more extensive and expensive the restoration process becomes. Quick action minimizes damage and lowers the overall cost of repairs.
Protect Personal Belongings: Water can ruin personal items such as furniture, electronics, and important documents. By acting quickly, we can salvage and restore many of these valuable belongings.
Our team handles the entire process of restoration from initial damage mitigation to rebuilding, guiding you through the entire restoration to return your property to its pre-damaged state.

Business Flooded. Can the carpet be saved?

Carpet flooded
Does Carpet Need to Be Replaced After a Flood?
Disaster strikes! A storm came through and flooded your business and now you need flood water damage restoration. But your business has many different parts. What is restorable and what needs replacement? For example, can you save carpet after a flood?
The answer is usually ‘no’. You should replace the carpet after a flood. If you don’t, you could be watching for signs of mold under the carpet in the coming days.
Your Flood Water Damage Restoration Experts
There could be some rugs and other carpets that don’t use padding. For example, a throw rug for a hardwood floor could be savable depending on the damage. Glue in office carpeting may also be salvageable. The main problem with installed carpet replacement is the padding. Padding degrades in the water much quicker than carpet fiber.
If your carpet was in the water for less than 24 hours, there is a slight chance of salvage. Even this depends on the water’s categorization:
Category 1 Flood Water
Comes from clean water such as broken water lines that move water into your home.
Category 2 Flood Water
Is dirty water from your sewer backing up or the toilet overflowing?
Category 3 flood water
Is the most serious. This occurs when a sewer line breaks and floods your home.
How Long Does It Take to Dry Out Water Damage?
With the correct water damage drying equipment, getting back to normal is a matter of hiring professionals. After inspections and creating a plan of action, experts differentiate the savable from the destroyed.
Flood water damage restoration requires experts that know how to get you and your family back to normal. From carpet flood restoration to home repairs, our experts put your home back the way it was.
How Soon Does Mold Grow After a Flood?
For mold removal restoration, keep in mind mold can begin developing in 24-48 hours. The softer and more porous something is the more prone it is to mold formation. Remember, speed is key. The quicker you start drying out your house the safer it will be for everyone.
