Experienced remediators lean on several removal options when Los Angeles homes suffer mold damage.

When mold damage threatens the property, we have a finite timeline to provide suitable remediation solutions before the spores spread further or the hosting materials become too severely deteriorated to preserve. We respond fast to mold damage threats with effective restoration solutions.

Surface Cleaning Options

One of the first attempted remediation methods our mold removal companies in Los Angeles use is surface cleaning. With light damages that have yet to become destructive to the hosting elements, varying surface cleaning might be possible to overcome developing mold damage. Biocides and sporicidal products are ideal in these situations, as they also inhibit further mold growth.

Aggressive Cleaning Tactics

Surface cleaning is not always effective, however. In some cases, more aggressive tactics are necessary to eliminate organisms that have moved beyond the surface layer to impact the host deeply. Techniques to address these greater damages include:

  • Sanding
  • Media Blasting
  • Abrasive Wet Cleaning

Controlled Demolition for Harsh Damages

One of the final measures that our professionals consider when restoring a home after mold damage is eliminating compromised structural elements. Prolonged exposures of sensitive materials like drywall can deteriorate these hosting elements to the point that removal is the only suitable solution.

Mold removal can be an intricate process. When active organisms threaten your home or business, SERVPRO of Silver Lake / Echo Park is an experienced and trusted choice to help. We have several mold remediation tactics to choose from based on a range of variables, allowing us to better protect your property and its contents after damage.
