Molds are fungi that thrive in warm, damp, and humid conditions (Florida in a nutshell). There are many different species of mold, and they can be found both outside and inside. Mold found in your Panama City home can be a very dangerous problem. Mold reproduces by spores that are invisible to the naked eye. These spores can survive really dry conditions that do not typically support the growth of mold. Even afterwater damagehas been dried and cleaned up, there can be unknown mold spores present, just waiting for the right conditions to grow. To grow, mold needs a food source, moisture, and time. Food sources for indoor mold include wood, drywall, insulation, and dust. The moisture for mold to grow indoors often comes from leaks or floods. With food and moisture present, mold growth can begin within 24 hours. This is why we at Daystar Cleaning emphasize that timing is so critical in mold cleanup. Act fast The first step in mold cleanup is to call a mold damage restoration team. With the proper training, experience, and equipment, restoration crews will be able to address the mold issue quickly and effectively. The state of Florida does not allow companies to test and clean the same mold site, so you need to pick a restoration company that will work with an independent mold inspector before mold removal can begin. They will perform an inspection of your property for visible mold and signs of hidden mold. Once the inspection is complete, work can begin to contain damage to the smallest area possible, physically remove contamination, treat and dry materials to ensure that mold will not return. Afterwards we will perform or recommend procedures for returning your home and property to its pre-loss condition. Using the proper tools and techniques Mold containment prevents the spread and further damage of mold growth. There are various containment procedures, some even requiring the use of advanced equipment like negative air chambers. No matter the technique or equipment used, the goal of containment is to isolate the affected area with physical barriers and negative air pressure to keep mold spores from spreading during cleanup. The specialized air filtration equipment allows restoration professionals to capture and remove mold spores from the air. Powerful air-scrubbers and HEPA vacuums can also be used to prevent the spread of mold spores and keep it contained. Once adequate containment has been achieved, physical removal of mold and mold-infested materials begins.Mold cleanupis dependant upon the amount of mold growth and types of surfaces on which mold growth is found. With the use of antifungal and antimicrobial cleaning treatments, mold can be eliminated from surfaces. Depending on how much mold is present, porous materials like carpets and drywall may have to be removed and replaced in order to fully remediate heavy mold growth. Affected materials must then be completely dried to ensure that mold growth will not return. Cleanup and restoration may require only minor repairs such as replacing damaged materials, or it may entail major repairs such as reconstruction of rooms.

Water damage issues may be caused by broken pipes, blocked or damaged drains, worn out appliances, storms, fire damage, and from many other sources in and outside of your Panama City home. The appropriate cleanup treatment depends on the nature of thewater damage. Some water carries contaminants and should be considered dangerous, so you really don’t want to start cleaning up this type of damage on your own without the proper gear. Whatever the origin, the prospects for restoration depend largely on the speed with which your home and personal property can be dried. Even clean water can generate mildew and other bacterial growth if neglected. Did you know that water damage disasters can be categorized by the type of water that is involved? There are three water damage categories to consider when dealing with water damage. CATEGORY 1: CLEAR WATER Clear water is the safest category to clean up and does not pose an immediate health risk. Clear water typically comes from clean water sources such as a malfunctioning appliance, faucets, cracked clean water lines. When dealing with clear water it is important to react quickly, even clean water can cause a lot of damage if left to long. CATEGORY 2: GREY WATER Grey water refers to water that is not contaminated by fecal matter but is not clean and clear. Grey water typically includes water from washing machines, showers, and bathtubs, dishwashers, and sinks. This type of water damage contains fewer pathogens than a category 3 wastewater and can induce illness if ingested. Grey water can turn to black water if left unattended to long, causing serious health hazards for your family. CATEGORY 3: BLACK WATER Black water refers to wastewater that has been contaminated with fecal matter. Black water typically comes from, clogged plumbing systems, clogged toilets and external sewage systems, this includes raw sewage. Sadly, this colored water is the most dangerous type of water damage you will experience. It contains dangerous bacteria, pathogens and potentially, dangerous chemicals. Because of the unsanitary conditions of this category of water, absorbent and porous items such as carpets, furniture, drywall, and clothing are often damaged beyond repair. When dealing with black water you must take the necessary safety precautions to avoid health risks and serious illnesses. When dealing with black water it is extremely important to have the proper (PPE) personal protective equipment before entering contaminated areas.
