Understanding Mold and Our Mold Remediation Process

8/4/2020 (Permalink)

Many of us don’t really understand all the issues and the facts that surround indoor mold. For example, most people don’t know that the spores for all kinds of mold are in the air all around us, and that it only takes a day or two for a colony to get started. Once mold has established a colony, it can never be completely eradicated. It’s vital to understand mold so that you can keep yourself and your belongings safe, and practicing prevention is the best way to do that. 

If you do end up with mold issues, however, remediation can be done to keep the situation from becoming unmanageable, and our SERVPRO of Hermitage/ Donelson team is full of experts at mold remediation. Today we would like to give you some information about our mold remediation process so that you know how it works and what to expect.
