How to Bounce Back After Mold Moves In

Mold can creep up on any homeowner, especially here in Mahopac where the humid months between June and September make it easy for mold to thrive. One place it loves to hide? Under your wallpaper. You might not even realize it’s there until it’s caused some real trouble. The wallpaper creates a damp, dark space that’s perfect for mold to grow. That’s where SERVPRO® of Putnam County steps in—we’ve got some high-tech tools, like infrared cameras and moisture meters, to track down that hidden mold.

How Do You Know Mold Is Lurking Under Your Wallpaper?

Mold damage can be sneaky. It often stays out of sight until it’s a big problem. Here are a few clues that you might have mold hiding under your wallpaper:

• Wallpaper starting to peel or change color
• A musty smell that just won’t go away
• Stains or soft spots on the walls

Tackling Mold Head-On

At SERVPRO of Putnam County, we don’t mess around when it comes to mold removal. We bring in all the right tools to make sure every trace of mold is found and taken care of. We use air quality monitors to measure the mold spores floating around, giving us a clear picture of the problem. Mold usually means there’s been some water damage too, so we also track down what’s causing the issue in the first place. Here's how we make sure your mold problem is solved for good:

• We set up containment barriers to stop mold spores from spreading through the air.
• HEPA vacuums and air scrubbers get rid of mold spores and clean up your air.

Once the mold is gone, we don’t just leave you hanging. Our team will fix any damage the mold left behind, like replacing wallpaper or drywall, so your home is back to looking great and feeling safe.
