    What You Can Do Until Help Arrives

    In as little as 48 hours, mold can quickly become a problem in your home or business when there’s a water intrusion, like a roof leak or leaking water line. Mold can cause health effects and can also cause significant damage to your property. SERVPRO® professionals have the training, protective gear, and specialized equipment necessary to handle your mold problem.

    If you have a mold problem in your home or business, your primary focus should be safety:

    • Significant mold growth can occur in 48-72 hours.
    • Mold may present a greater risk to children, the elderly, and anyone with respiratory problems.
    • A strong, musty odor may indicate hidden mold behind drywall or under carpeting.

    What to Do about Mold:

    • Stay out of affected areas.
    • Turn off the HVAC system and fans.
    • Contact SERVPRO for mold remediation services.

    What NOT to Do with Mold:

    • 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.
