Is Mold Damage a Concern in Our Area?

Unfortunately, the facts are that mold loves to grow all over the planet – including here in Marin County, which has all it needs for mold to flourish: water, the right temperature, and time. And we have those.

Leaky roofs, damp basements, even condensation from HVAC systems can provide the moisture that mold needs to begin colonizing. Indoor temperatures tend to fall within a perfect range for mold damage to spread in our mild, temperate climate.

What Should You Do If You Spot Mold Damage?

If you suspect that you have a mold problem in your home or business, it is important to take action quickly. If you do find mold growth in any room, do not touch the affected area or disturb it in any way. Mold growth spreads via spores that become airborne if you touch the area or move it at all. If you have any HVAC systems or fans in the building, be sure to turn them off as well.

What to Do:

• Stay out of affected areas.
• Turn off the HVAC system and any fans.
• Contact SERVPRO of Novato/ San Rafael/ Sausalito for professional mold remediation services.

What Not to Do:

• Don't touch or disturb the mold.
• Don't blow air across any surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth.
• Don't attempt to dry the area yourself.
• Don't spray bleach or other disinfectants on the mold.
