Taking proper steps to dry your property quickly and effectively is easy with the help of restoration professionals like SERVPRO of Boise. It is important to create and monitor a dry environment to prevent mold causing further secondary damage and potential health issues.  Although most insurance companies act quickly and help make decisions there can sometimes be unforeseen delays. Allow SERVPRO to provide preventative emergency service steps right away to prevent secondary damage.

Maintaining your home and protecting your family from avoidable diseases are two good reasons to assess the potential impact of mold on your home. Most people wait until mold contamination is very high before acting to correct this problem. Mold is tough and all it really needs to continue growing is moisture and a food source. Mold can even begin to turn up in a matter of days. We suggest you take these 4 preventative steps to ensure you are tackling a problem before it gets out of hand.

1. Maintain your property by performing any necessary repairs and maintenance.

2. React quickly to pipe leaks and moisture infiltrations.

3. Let us help you dry the moisture quickly (within 24-48 hours) – do not wait!

4. Contact SERVPRO to evaluate your property to see if professional structural drying is required.
