Mold problem in Portland business storage area
This North Portland business discovered extensive mold growth in their storage area thanks to a roof leak that went undetected for several months. Businesses are always at risk for mold infestations, especially if they are leasing older buildings that may need repairs.
SERVPRO of NW Portland worked around the clock to remediate the problem, so that business could be restored as quickly and seamlessly as possible. In this particular case, all of the ceiling drywall needed to be removed and properly disposed of. Additionally, the rafters were treated and sanded to prevent additional growth.
If You See Visible Mold
If you see visible mold, do not disturb it. You can inadvertently spread the mold infestation throughout your home. When mold is disturbed, the mold can release microscopic mold spores which become airborne and can circulate inside your home.
What to Do:
- Stay out of affected areas.
- Turn off the HVAC system and fans.
- Contact SERVPRO of NW Portland for mold remediation services.
What Not to Do:
- Don’t touch or disturb the mold.
- Don’t blow air across any surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth.
