SERVPRO wants Santa Ana business owners and property managers to have skilled, effective mold remediation

Whether you own a local restaurant or manage an apartment complex, mold is never anything to ignore. Santa Ana commercial properties require rapid response to address a mold outbreak, and SERVPRO has the crew to get the job done.

Do You Know the Tell-Tale Signs of Black Mold?

There are several signs to look for that call for immediate mold remediation in Santa Ana, which include:

• Musty odors – The smell associated with mold is often damp and musty, which is the first indication of a problem.
• Visible mold – You may start to see dark or black rings or spots on various surfaces, usually ceilings or walls near sources of moisture.

Mold remediation must include addressing the source of moisture. You could have poor airflow that boosts relative humidity, or there may be a hidden leak within your commercial plumbing. When you call us at SERVPRO, we will look for sources such as:

• Broken downpipes
• Damage to the roofing, exterior entry-points, cracks in the flashing, etc.
• If you recently had a water emergency inside or exterior flood water came in, we can use moisture detection tools to seek out hidden moisture to facilitate the drying process.

Drying all moisture, airflow, and ventilation is critical with mold remediation. Then we remove mold and non-salvageable materials and disinfect the affected areas with an antimicrobial agent.

Call SERVPRO of Santa Ana South/SERVPRO of Santa Ana North at (714) 558-7772, and we can send a crew as soon as possible to take a look.
