Mold Investigation Process With Help of High-Tech Tools
You may have seen, or smelt mold growth in your residence, but many questions run through the mind of SERVPRO which pertain to its exact location, spread, severity, strain, and a host of other factors. Mold can grow back to full size from just a tiny remaining patch, so it is imperative that we are fully stamp out the colony in your home in one try. Thus, we are equipped with the same expensive, high-end technology found at SERVPRO locations nationwide. Thermal cameras, moisture sensors, and specialized air analysis equipment help us to understand the exact extent of mold in your home, and root it out accordingly.
Thermal Cameras
most types of mold damage are caused by mold species that emit heat - heat that can be detected by the right equipment. Our special hand-help sensors can peer behind walls and into dark corners to see where mold is growing, and where we need to focus our efforts. These sensors also often allow us to measure critical readings like humidity that can promote faster mold growth.
Moisture Sensors
Where there is mold there is moisture, so much of our detection process revolves around finding that moisture. Moisture detectors allow us to detect water in hard-to-see locations, even in minuscule amounts. SERVPRO is fully certified to handle any extra water damage problems found in this process, so you do not have to worry about arranging for additional restorations should we find severe damage.
Air Samples
Sometimes, especially when dealing with certain dangerous types of mold that may cause health effects, our technicians may take samples of the air. Depending on the specific situation, these may be elevated on-site, at our facility, or at a laboratory to determine air composition and help us to understand better what mold we are fighting in your home.
