Mold Damage to Los Angeles Apartment

Mold Damage at a Los Angeles apartment began when a water heater rusted and started leaking. The water damage wasn’t noticed, so it provided moisture to a dark area, which is the formula for mold growth. The odor of mold and mildew alerted the resident to the problem. SERVPRO was called to provide mold remediation. We sealed off the damaged area to prevent spores from traveling through the apartment while we cleaned and treated the infestation. We removed some drywall to allow for drying water damage located behind the walls. The carpeting had suffered too much damage, so it was removed enabling us to dry the subfloor. The rusted water heater had created a mess for the resident. However, using proven SERVPRO methods and materials we made his problem go away. He was very thankful to get back in his apartment after we had completed our work. If you spot a water leak, smell an odd odor, or see any mold, call SERVPRO of Westwood-Beverly Hills 24/7 at (310) 390-7540.
