Mold was discovered behind baseboard in this residential home.

Here at SERVPRO of New Smyrna Beach- Titusville, our highly trained technicians handle water damages everyday. Knowing the prompt action is required to prevent mold growth. That's what we're here for! Mold is likely to spread when an environment has been subject to moisture for a long period of time. If your home, or business, has sustained a recent water damage, it is vital to remove excess water and dry the structure quickly. If there is an ongoing moisture problem in the building, here are some important signs to look for:

-The presence of visible mold.

-Strong, musty odors which may indicate mold is present.

-Any evidence of past moisture problems that might have caused undetected mold growth.

-Excessive humidity.

These conditions may require the expertise of a qualified Indoor Air Quality/ Environmental Professional to inspect the building for mold growth and water damage issues.
