Persistence can be a good thing in most aspects of life. Persistence could mean the difference between receiving a promotion at work or being passed over for someone else. When is persistence a bad thing? When water leaks are involved. Especially if said water leak is sneaky and has gone unnoticed. That's exactly what happened to this house in Spring Lake, NJ. There was a persistent, unknown leak happening that caused mold damage in the crawlspace. SERVPRO of Howell/Wall came in and remediated all of the mold for the family. They were grateful for the help and we were grateful we could help.

Is it roofs or rooves? I'm never sure. Either way, this roof leaked, as they sometimes do, and that leak caused some unknown water damage with eventually led to some mold damage. Which isn't as much fun as one would think. This house in Jackson, NJ had an ongoing leak for a bit of time. Unfortunately for them, there was some considerable rain during that time. Once the family called SERVPRO of Howell/Wall, we went right out there to assess the damage and put together an estimate for the remediation. Once all was said and done, the mold had been remediated and the customers were pleased with the results. And we were simply happy we could help.

Sometimes businesses close. It's an unfortunate part of life. When that happens, previously used buildings can sit abandoned for long periods of time. When that happens, the building can start to break down. This particular photo is from a commercial business in Whiting, New Jersey that closed down. Over time, a roof leak caused some water damage that was left unmitigated since the building was no longer being used. As you can see, mold developed. SERVPRO of Howell/Wall was called in to remediate the extensive mold. We got the job done, and the customer was happy to have a mold free building.

Bubbles are fun. What kid doesn't love bubbles? That's a summer staple. Soapy bubbles are great. But bubbles on your drywall? Not so great. Especially when those bubbles are surrounded by little clusters of mold. The photo shown is the result of a water loss that was not properly mitigated. This is why you should always call SERVPRO of Howell/Wall when you have a water loss. The last thing anyone wants to deal with is a bubbly, fuzzy wall in their basement. If that does somehow happen to you, we will do all we can to help fix the situation.

The only good mold is the mold found in smelly cheeses. I love a good bleu cheese. But that's not the kind of mold people might find in their houses. That kind of mold is not delicious (please don't lick mold found in your house). It's a nuisance. We at SERVPRO of Howell/Wall can make mold less of a nuisance for you. In this home, there was obvious suspect microbial growth pretty much everywhere. Once the customer contact us, we went right over to assess the situation. There was much to be done, so we got to work and removed all of the unsalvageable materials before cleaning and disinfecting the affected areas with an antimicrobial spray. The customer was happy with our services.

Mold has a distinct odor. A very unpleasant, distinct odor. If something smells musty or like mildew, that's probably mold. And let's be honest. No one wants to deal with mold in their home. But SERVPRO of Howell/Wall can help. This customer in Howell, New Jersey had a previous leak that caused some mold damaged behind the sheetrock in the living room. Once the customer contacted us about the moldy/mildew smell in the room, we came right out to see what was wrong and how we could fix it. We removed all of the affected drywall before treating the area with an antimicrobial spray. In the end, the customer was thrilled with our professionalism and knowledge regarding mold remediation.

No one wants to walk into their bathroom and smell a musty odor. That is never a good sign. But if you do happen to walk into your bathroom and smell a musty smell, SERVPRO of Howell/Wall can help. In the photo shown, there was clearly some suspect microbial growth behind the sheetrock in the bathroom. When the customer called us to investigate, we went right over to see what the problem was and then devise a solution. In the end, we removed the affected sheetrock and disinfected the area with an antimicrobial spray. The customer was very pleased with the services we provided.
