• Removing Materials With Mold Damage Protects Homes

The musty odor that told you the upstairs bathroom in your Oak Ridge two-story home harbored mold won't last long after SERVPRO®'s technicians start working. We take mold damage removal seriously and use a highly effective approach that saves time and money.

During your home's mold remediation in Oak Ridge, SERVPRO's mold damage removal team identifies and eliminates hot spots of microbial activity. We also determine where cleaning should suffice. Our goal is to protect your property. One fact about mold and other similar microbes is that they exist everywhere. It is the overgrowth or colonization by microbes that is destructive.

Here is some information about the process of removing and replacing only those components dilapidated by microbes:

• Extraction of damaged structures
• Construction and use of barriers
• Installation of new structural elements

Anchoring itself into a porous material lets mold steadily cause disintegration on whatever substance it rests. We use protective gear during the removal of contaminated drywall or carpet sections. Our ventilation equipment prevents us from breathing in dust and spores while we pull out, cut, and bag said elements. Bagging what we cut away keeps anything from contaminating clean areas of your home as we pass through on our way to dispose of everything outside.

Building the necessary but temporary compartments around areas that require our attention takes little time but provides significant protection for your home and everything in it. With air movers and scrubbers, we further diminish the number of spores and mold particles within your home. Trapping these tiny things can prevent big problems later.

We can install new carpet after normalizing interior humidity levels and applying antimicrobial agents. Our team can also install wall materials. Changing the environment inside your home helps control the number of microbes and spores that can remain viable and form new colonies.
