Commercial Mold Damage Experts In Tallassee Talk About Problems With Porous Contents
If a small water leak ever develops inside your carpet warehouse in Tallassee, your contents could get negatively affected. If organic materials stay wet for too long, you may find yourself with a commercial mold damage situation. Once a fungus starts to develop, it quickly forms structures called hyphae that grow into, out of, and around the contaminated material. The hyphae not only make the contamination larger, but they also produce microscopic, seed-like spores that enable the fungus to reproduce. These small spores float around in the air until they find other wet materials to settle on and cause your company commercial mold damage in places far away from the initial source.
When dealing with the storage warehouse for your business, our SERVPRO technicians know that mitigating problems with your contents can save you and your insurance company money and time in the long run. Once commercial mold damage inside your Tallassee warehouse is found, we take measures to prevent it from spreading and causing multiple issues. Porous materials in your warehouse can be locations where spores sit until they get activated by moisture someday in the future. Organic substances like paper or cardboard in your warehouse can be prime locations for microbial growth if they get wet at a later date. If any water is not removed quickly after a leak, many microbes that exist can activate and contaminate various items and building materials in your warehouse.
If our SERVPRO crew knows that you have porous contents that could have been contaminated, there are numerous steps we can take to help prevent future growth. Any porous substances that get affected by spores get sprayed with antimicrobial chemicals. These chemicals aid in eliminating mold growth as well as the spores created by the contamination. In some cases, we use foggers to eliminate microbes and foul odors that exist inside your porous materials after fungi have formed.
