Don't Let Mold Make Your Leominster Home Smell Like Bleu Cheese--Call SERVPRO for Remediation

Leominster Mold Removal and Odor Control Are Essential for Healthy IAQ Indoor Air Quality

One of the tell-tale signs of mold growth in your Leominster residence is a musty odor. This scent indicates that mold colonies have formed and are beginning to thrive, which can also be a clear sign to call in professional remediators to help you to remove these damaging colonies and also remove that lingering persistent odor from the affected area of your home.
 
While there are undoubtedly many steps to remediating the mold damages to your Leominster residence, correcting this harsh smell is one that always has to happen. Fortunately, our SERVPRO professionals have the experience and the equipment to not only tackle this odor in the environment in this affected area of your home but also to deodorize the contents of your home as well that absorbed it.
 
The areas where deodorization needs to happen get noted in the initial inspection conducted by our SERVPRO professionals when we arrive at your home. Often deodorization is saved as one of the last things that occur to your home before completing the remediation process, but this is to ensure that we are not continually combatting it while we work to remove mold colonies and the subsequent damages they have caused.
 
For this process to be a success, the rest of the restoration and remediation needs to occur, which includes both the removal of the existing colonies and the extraction/drying of the moisture and dampness found that allow the spores to seat and thrive.
 
Deodorization typically uses thermal fogging. This machine emits a chemical compound which reacts with these overwhelming odors in the environment and neutralizes them on contact. The odorless compound leaves no aroma behind. Additionally, this process can get used for fabrics, furniture, draperies, textiles and more to remove the blatant musty scent of the former mold colonies. Air scrubbers fitted with HEPA and activated charcoal filters help to eliminate the odors and airborne particles during the actual work.
 
Fighting mold damage in your home comes in several unique steps. While you might not be aware of all of the pieces that make up the whole of restoration and remediation, our SERVPRO of Fitchburg - Leominster technicians can help you to see its effectiveness through their efforts in your home. Give us a call at the first sign of mold at (978) 537-1500.
