A Mold Infestation.

Yuck! might be what first popped into your head after seeing this. This is a bad case of mold damage. As you can see the mold moved from the tile and creeped itself into the drywall. Because the mold damage was so severe not only did the bathroom tile and stall have to come out but also the drywall. Our certified SERVPRO team of Highland/ North Redlands took the proper steps to do the remediation and work towards restoring the home back to its pre existing condition, well before the mold attack.  Here are 3 simple steps you can do everyday to prevent a mold infestation like this one.  Step 1: After every shower or soak apply vinegar to your bathroom. Vinegar is effective in killing mold and will help prevent future mold from growing.  Step 2: We love hot Steamy showers but did you know they are perfect for mold and mildew growth. Turn on your exhaust fan and if you don't have one open up the windows and air dry. Wipe down any steamy residue. step 3: Squeegee and wipe down your glass doors, tile, and bathroom surfaces after every use. Cleaning up will help prevent mold and mildew from growing.  Stay consistent and do a thorough cleaning of the bathroom weekly. Doing these simple steps will help keep mold away and prevent crazy mold damages from happening. If you suspect you have a mold problem call the experts at SERVPRO of Highland/ North Redlands for a quick inspection.
