Service Areas
Have a Mold Problem?
Mold is a dangerous situation for homes and businesses throughout Montgomery County and its surrounding areas. We have a team comprised of Applied Microbial Remediation Technicians certified through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC.) Our entire mold recovery team also has an additional certification in water restoration and structural drying to ensure that we have the most knowledgeable and helpful professionals to guide our customers and their property through this potentially hazardous situation.
We rely on our advanced equipment to help us manage even widespread effects from the time that we first arrive at a home. We have air scrubbers that can reduce mold spores and other particulates in the affected environment and desiccant dehumidifiers that can address lingering moisture that can continually facilitate further mold growth.
No matter where mold strikes, from homes in Laytonsville and Washington Grove to the stores of Lakeforest Mall, our SERVPRO professionals 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.

You guys are awesome and do amazing work! I've been a witness of your wonderful water damage restoration work for three years! Thank you very much!
Great crew! Very helpful!
Very happy, satisfied, excellent.
I would consider Julio a good friend now and a lot of help SERVPRO ought to be proud to have a worker like Julio.
Great Guys-Very Knowledgeable-would certainly call again if needed!
We discovered our basement was flooded, and within an hour or so SERVPRO was in our home, assessing the damage, doing everything that could possibly be done to minimize further damage. To say the response time was quick would be a complete understatement. To say service was great would also fail to do them justice. They were utterly amazing. They eased all of our fears, helped us work through what’s going to happen and truly went above and beyond. No corners were cut, and the team was exceptional with communicating everything to us! I will never use another company, and can’t thank SERVPRO enough. Their equipment has been running all night to dry everything out, and within 18 hours from our original call, it’s already a completely different basement! Highly highly recommend!
To all the personnel that came to my aid when I had the water problem. There are never enough words to thank you. From the first phone call, till the work was finished, it was wonderful service. Mr. DJ Trinquero and the men that came were real gentlemen. I will recommend your service to anyone that has a problem such as mine. If I have missed anyone, please forgive me. Ashley-- thank you also for your kind words. Thanks again.
I wasn't at the site, but my real estate agent was. He had high praise for the SERVPRO team. They went above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you.
