Mould is everywhere in the world, but there should not be prevalent mould growth in your property. In as little as 48 hours, mould can quickly become a problem in your home or business when there’s a water intrusion, like a roof leak or leaking water line. Mould can cause health effects and can also cause significant damage to your property. Be careful not to disturb the mould as its spores can easily become airborne, increasing the risk of adverse health effects. SERVPRO of Calgary South has the training, protective gear, and specialized equipment necessary to handle your mould problem.
