Roof Damage from Hurricane Irma Results in Widespread Mold
5/3/2018 (Permalink)
Mold was one of many issues affecting this six-unit apartment building in North Jacksonville when SERVPRO of Fernandina Beach/Yulee first arrived on the scene. The roof of the building had suffered damage from Hurricane Irma some six months prior, and rain had been intruding into the building over this time period.
Consequently, the structure had much mold damage. Once the roof leak was addressed, we could proceed with mold remediation.
