Sometimes mold is where you expect it - in a damp basement or above a shower that isn't well vented. However, here at SERVPRO of Paducah we know just how sneaky mold can be. When the customer at this home called about a water spot on a ceiling, SERVPRO of Paducah responded and checked for the source of the leak as well as additional moisture. It was discovered that a very tiny but persistent roof leak created a lasting moisture issue that allowed mold to develop and spread. The SERVPRO of Paducah crew tackeld the issue with expertise and the home is back together, "Like it never even happened."

Mold can be lurking in the most unlikely of places. Managers at this local assisted living facility found mold behind the baseboards due to a slow window leak. Though it wasn't a large amount of mold, even the smallest amounts can cause health affects. SERVPRO of Paducah responded to the job quickly, removing baseboards and eliminating mold. 

Mold can quickly get out of hand. When the basement of this home flooded and was left to sit for a short time, mold found it's was up the walls and stairwell. Mold this significant can cause many health issues, some life threatening to children and elderly. SERVPRO of Paducah responded to the job and removed all drywall containing mold. 

This home experienced a large fire that left a hole in the roof. This hole allowed rain in and resulted in nearly six inches of standing water in the basement. The standing water left to sit for just a short period of time created an enormous and dangerous amount of mold.

Lesson: Do not allow water to sit in your home!
