Microbial Growth at Business in Travelers Rest, SC

This Family Business suffered some microbial growth due to an unresolved issue nearly a year prior. The building suffered a leak on from the slab foundation a year ago and thought they had the issue resolved once they cleaned the standing water up on their own. They called us at SERVPRO West Greenville County to come out when they noticed some growth in a supply closet. Once our production crew went out and assessed the damage, it turned out that not only was there microbial growth going on, but some of the material was still reading wet. The customers were very surprised, but grateful to have the issue finally resolved. Production got straight to removing all affected material and sanitizing as they went to ensure the business was safe to continue with day-to-day business. It is very important to let professionals clean any water damage to your home or business. As these business owners learned, water damage is not always visible and microbial growth can begin growing within 24 hours given the right conditions. If you experience any water damage to your business, give SERVPRO West Greenville County a call at (864)-292-8570.
