SERVPRO Conducts Mold Inspections, Remediations, and Removal in Manhattan

Manhattan is arguably the heart of the world. Finance, fashion, entrepreneurship, and art all have a significant presence throughout the city, and people around the world dream of visiting the Big Apple one day. Part of its charm is the intersection of older architecture and historic buildings along with the most modern structures and innovative technology. Despite their age, all structures are vulnerable to the elements and may present issues such as mold.

The population density in Manhattan is recognized as the highest in the nation. Meanwhile, New York County is the smallest county in the continental U.S. Its small footprint is home to the United Nations, world-famous Times Square, Central Park, and iconic buildings such as the Empire State and One World Trade Center. Countless film productions feature the city’s landmarks and skyline, not to mention the importance of Wall Street and the financial transactions happening there daily. Manhattan is also one of the most diverse communities globally, where nationalities, religions, and ethnicities co-exist to create the rich tapestry that lives, works, and plays within its boundaries.  

Not surprisingly, housing in Manhattan is in high demand, expensive, and an adventure in and of itself. Buildings with older wiring and plumbing can present issues and need restoration services, and mold can cause health effects. SERVPRO is a premier mold removal company in Manhattan, and we are here to meet your needs when time is of the essence. As soon as you detect black mold or attic mold, let our mold specialists conduct a thorough mold removal process and leave your home clean.

The Mold Remediation Process

Mold removal is complex and guided by environmental regulations and industry recommendations. Our mold technicians are certified to handle even the toughest cases, and we do so by applying best practices and relying on state-of-the-art technology. Mold generally appears when excessive humidity exists due to the environment, ceiling leaks, or other water damage. At SERVPRO, we address mold remediation by applying the following principles-

• Safety first- we work safely using personal protective equipment and preparing the work area to minimize human exposure to mold and contain its spread.
• Documentation of our work and the extent of the mold damage.
• Addressing the source of the mold, which is closely tied to restoring normal levels of humidity in the home.
• Mold removal, including the cleanup process, as well as discarding any unsalvageable items.

Our AMRT applied microbial remediation technicians follow protocols from the EPA and the guidelines from the IICRC The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration for mold cleanup work. We have the required New York State license for Mold Remediation Certification.
