Containment for Mold Remediation in Gatlinburg Office Cafeteria

Providing incentives for your workplace has always been a strong foundation for employee loyalty and retention in your Gatlinburg office. With a growing facility, a cafeteria area was a way to both add a little more profit to the business and provide the employees with a convenient location for lunches on-site. With round-the-clock service for various shifts, there is little time to ensure that functions such as ventilation are as adequate as they should be.

Improper ventilation in food preparation areas can lead to persistent dampness and humidity that can feed spores and promote mold damage in Gatlinburg offices. With how quickly this situation can spread throughout this immediate area and adjacent portions of the building, susceptible materials like drywall, wood, and ceiling tiles can all become hosts to a rapidly migrating colony. Addressing these concerns must happen quickly, as these colonies can cause health effects to those exposed, and the presence of this organism can temporarily shut down your on-site cafeteria.

Containment is vital for slowing this migration of the organism. Our SERVPRO professionals arrive with the appropriate tools to seal off openings and establish a controlled environment with thick 6mil plastic sheeting and proper ventilation techniques. According to the levels of contamination established by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), the moderate microbial threat in the cafeteria of your building requires local containment practices, including constructing frames with PVC pipe for doorways to get a tight and impenetrable seal to prevent mold spore migration. We also seal over HVAC vents, windows, and seams after mold damage.

This established work area gets the full measure of our remediation work, including both controlled demolition and abrasive cleaning techniques like soda blasting. Negative airflow systems can prevent contaminants and other threats from flowing into clean areas during and after these processes.

While you might have a period where remediation work must continue in the cafeteria, containment efforts can help this mold damage scenario from SERVPRO of Sevier, Jefferson, & Cocke Counties remediation specialists help you however you need by calling (865) 429-8885.
