Mold Remediation in an Exeter Utility Closet

Often heavy appliances requiring water for cleaning like a washing machine or water heater can result in water leakage that results in mold growth. The removed appliances and an opening of the wall in this Exeter house revealed a mold patch that affected the drywall and also the framing. SERVPRO AMRT applied microbial remediation technicians to demolition the non-salvageable panels and trim and then a gentle soda-blasting with a small HEPA filtered vacuum to clean the surfaces of the mold. The hyphae were not deeply embedded in the cellulose materials, so it was saveable. Of course, the source of the moisture must be fixed to help prevent future mold growths. SERVPRO techs can spray an antifungal agent to exterminate dormant mold spores in the area.
