Mold can be a hazardous situation, and one that can quickly get out of control in smaller structures like the apartments throughout the city blocks we serve and more significant structures like shopping centers, department stores, and structures like the Cooper Hewitt Museum. With the effects that the organism can have on both structural integrity and the potential health effects that it could cause, addressing spreading colonization should happen quickly and confidently.
Every team member of our SERVPRO of Upper East Side crew has IICRC certifications as Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians. This accreditation ensures the training and experience of each team member in addressing mold growth in your property, and our organization has certification and recognition from the state of New York for our experience in this restoration niche. We work closely with industrial hygienists to ensure that their protocols get followed to the letter and use our expertise and experience in the industry to get rid of mold in your property for good.

Understanding Mold
Some restoration companies advertise “mold removal” and may even guarantee to remove all mold. This is a fallacy because removing all mold from a house or business is impossible; microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. Here are the facts:
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
- Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
- Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
- Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
