MOLD AND MILDEW CLEANUP AND REMOVAL
The extent of mold damage is often more extensive than meets the eye, leading to problems that may not be immediately apparent. Mold can harm building materials, finishes, furnishings, and even the structural integrity of your property. It's also known to trigger health issues in individuals and pets, particularly those with asthma or compromised immune systems. Astonishingly, just one square inch of mold growth can harbor over a million microscopic spores, some of which can be toxic.
Handling mold removal in your home or business necessitates the expertise of professionals. The team at Best Option Restoration of Tulsa is equipped with the necessary training and certification to safely remove and prevent mold growth in residential and commercial properties across the Tulsa, OK region.
SIGNS OF MOLD AND MILDEW
Mold growth is sometimes evident, but there are instances when it lurks out of sight, only revealing itself through a musty or unpleasant mildew odor. In some cases, mold may not be seen or smelled, but its effects can manifest as health issues, such as flu-like symptoms, skin rashes, worsening asthma, and even more severe illnesses.
While testing for mold levels can be costly and unnecessary, it is advisable to have a professional assess the extent of the damage rather than conducting tests. Best Option Restoration of Tulsa industrial hygienists provide valuable insights into the true scope of the problem, as mold often thrives in concealed spaces like wall cavities, heating ducts, crawl spaces, and basements. Our expertise allow to pinpoint the source and identify all affected areas.
LOCATING THE SOURCE
Visible mold is only part of the problem; identifying the source of moisture is where effective remediation begins. Unless the moisture source is addressed, mold issues are likely to recur. The source may be a leaky pipe, a damaged seal, a malfunctioning hose, or even weather-related events like flooding. Our technicians excel in locating and addressing these sources.
Once the sources are pinpointed, the affected areas with mold growth and water damage must be thoroughly removed or cleaned with industrial-strength products approved by the AIHA, CDC, and EPA to fully remediate the issue.
