Commercial Mold Problem in Portland

When the roof to our office complex leaked, enough moisture came into the building to create a mold problem. There was a musty odor that I could not locate anywhere in the building. The next day I looked up and saw mold spreading across the ceiling where it hadn’t been yesterday. I called SERVPRO of North Portland / West Hawthorne, and they sent a team out to mitigate and remediate the problem. Here are some facts about mold:

• 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 air conditioning or 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
• Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed to discourage the mold from returning
• Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas
• Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent
