Hard surfaces can be cleaned and sanitized after water damage occurs. Affected items that cannot be sanitized will require disposal. Porous materials such as drywall, ceiling tiles, insulation, particleboard, paneling, etc., that have been directly affected by the damage, should be removed during the emergency service visit.
We understand that time is of the essence when it comes to running a business, which is why we strive to complete our disinfection services as quickly and effectively as possible. The timeline for returning to your workspace after our service will depend on the severity of the contamination and the size of the affected area. Our highly trained technicians use specialized products and equipment to safely remove and all pathogens and contaminants. This ensures that your workspace is thoroughly disinfected and safe for you and your employees to return to. We also isolate the affected area during the disinfection process to prevent any potential spread of contamination.

Your safety, satisfaction and peace of mind are our top priorities at ServiceMaster Restore.
Black mould (Statchybotrys chartarum) is greenish-black in colour and grows in conditions where there is an excessive amount of moisture over a long period of time. Water damage, excessive humidity, water leaks and condensation in small, damp places like bathrooms all create a perfect breeding ground for black mould. Black mould releases microtoxins, a noxious substance that can cause serious health problems for humans and pets.
