Why Should Mold Damage Remediation Action Begin in Less than 48 Hours?

Many clients wonder why they need to address water leaks so quickly. They may have stopped the leak, and although they have mopped up the majority of the water, the carpets, walls, and interior cavities may still be wet. Can’t these materials dry on their own?

SERVPRO has seen many situations in Raleigh needing mold damage remediation. The clients have waited for 48 hours or even longer, only to discover mold colonies are increasing and spreading to all of the areas that are still damp.

Mold spores are everywhere, and they are only waiting for the right conditions to begin growing and establish a colony. Homeowners can always find these conditions in a building after a water leak. They are:

• Food source – anything organic, such as wood, drywall, fibers, dirt, and even some insulating materials.
• Temperature – we tend to keep our indoor building temperatures at the ideal levels for mold growth – 68F – to 85F
• Moisture – add moisture from a water leak that is not dried correctly, and you have the perfect conditions for mold to grow.

SERVPRO technicians are keen to remove moisture as quickly as possible after a water leak to minimize the mold damage remediation your home or business will need.
