SERVPRO of Forest Hills / Ridgewood
Service Areas
Have a Mold Problem?
Remediation is a widely misunderstood concept, and one that requires expertise and extensive training to provide correctly. Our SERVPRO professionals have gotten accredited through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) as Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians (AMRT.) Many of these same technicians also have experience and endorsements for water loss recovery. Our remediation specialists can contain the mold organism and work to remove colonies actively growing in the damaged areas.
While we cannot remove all mold from your property, we have become a trusted name throughout New York by being a mold remediation contractor. With contaminants in place, we can begin tasks like sanding and soda blasting to remove colonies from materials and contents when possible. We also have a division of qualified contractors capable of completing controlled demolition and full-scale reconstruction when necessary. No matter how severe mold losses can become, our team can make it “Like it never even happened.”
What Is the Mold Remediation Process?
Air Filtration
Our specialized filtration equipment allows our professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.
Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to treat mold colonies. When necessary to remediate heavy mold growth, our mold removal process includes the removal and disposal of mold-infested porous materials such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation.
Cleaning
Our professionals clean the structural elements that were infected by mold such as flooring, framing, fixtures, HVAC and mechanical systems. We will also work to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) of the space. Other items may also require extra attention after a mold infestation, including curtains, décor and important documents.
Restoration
Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet. It may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in your home.
Emergency Contact
The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call us. Our specialist will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel needed for you and your home.
Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment
Our professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Using a variety of technologies, we can detect mold and locate any hidden water sources so the mold will not return once the area is cleaned and the mold removal process has been completed.
Mold Containment
We use various containment procedures to prevent the spread and cross-contamination of mold. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread as our professionals work to mitigate your mold problem.

When it enters your home and begins to cause mold problems, it’s in your best interest to have professional mold remediation performed to help ensure safety and effectiveness.
Our professionals are equipped to assess the mold and provide remediation services, using advanced equipment and techniques to help ensure its source is located, and the mold is remediated. Given its potential to cause allergens and irritants that may cause health effects, our services will help maintain your peace of mind while our professionals work to clean up the mold as quickly as possible.

Commercial Mold Remediation
Mold can enter your business in a variety of ways. Once spotted, it’s important you contact a cleanup and restoration company like SERVPRO as soon as possible. Given its ability to spread in 72 hours or less, and the possibility of allergens and irritants that may cause health effects as a result, time is of the essence when mold spreads in your business or commercial property.
We understand the urgency of returning your business to functioning condition, given that every hour of closed business is an hour of lost production and revenue. Take the necessary steps to help protect your customers, employees, and the health of your business by having our team assess and remediate any mold damage that may have grown in your commercial space.

My aunt used your company when my grandparents' plumbing backed up in the basement. Thank you for making my grandmother's house safe again.

We had a great experience with SERVPRO. We could not have asked for a better team. Great work!
We had a mold issue at my elderly mother’s house. Mr. Allen and his company came in and did a very thorough inspection. They brought the latest technology to detect moisture and mold. They were very knowledgeable and professional. Most importantly they were honest. They told us what needed to be done, and more importantly what did not need to be done. We could have easily been taken advantage of and sold a bunch of services we did not need. SERVPRO gave us straightforward recommendation. Then, they took care of the problem. I cannot recommend this company highly enough.
