Mold can increase rapidly in the right conditions. Temperatures between 77 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit allow microorganisms to prosper. The addition of moisture and a food supply of organic matter can spell trouble for homeowners with mold in their homes. While much of remediation is geared toward preventative measures such as humidity control, it is common for remediation technicians to remove and dispose of mold-infested materials. Extra care must be taken when removing moldy materials to prevent respiratory effects and reduce the spread of mold spores into unaffected areas of the property. Common mold equipment includes:

  • N95 respirator masks
  • Mold spore resistant waste bags
  • General construction equipment

Using professional mold removal companies in Setauket can offer work out cheaper than buying the equipment yourself. SERVPRO is a licensed operator with specialists in mold remediation. Our team is happy to work under the supervision of an indoor environmental specialist or by relying on the experience of one of our crew chiefs.
