It only takes 48 hours for mold to grow and spread in your Hot Springs home or business after a water intrusion, such as from a roof leak or damaged water line. In Central Arkansas, the humidity levels make this threat even stronger. Mold can cause significant damage to your property's structure and can potentially cause serious health effects to your family or customers. Additionally, mold can be tricky and is not something you should try to remediate yourself. Our professional technicians at SERVPRO of Saline County and Hot Springs have the specialized equipment and protective gear to properly handle your mold problem.
