Is There Mold Lurking Behind Your Filing Cabinets?

Mold lurking behind filing cabinets.

We get mold calls on a daily basis - Long Island is a humid environment, from the eastern most tip of Suffolk County to the west- Nassau County, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island.  When your building gets damp and the conditions and humidity are right you can have mold growth.  

Mold can permanently damage documents and books, clothing, furnishings, and personal effects - and can cause health effects for humans and animals.  Left unabated, it will continue to spread and destroy things.  Bleach and other remedies may remove discoloration but do not kill the live mold - what you thought you removed will return.  

At SERVPRO of Great Neck/Port Washington, we have been trained and certified by the IICRC in Mold.  We follow protocol in mold remediation and use anti-microbial agents that will destroy the mold.  Call us at 516-767-9600
