Cutting Out Black Growth

Behind appliances can lurk many things, one in particular is microbial growth. Behind this fridge, there was a small unknown leak. The growth took over behind the baseboards for quite some time. It was finally noticed after they homeowner noticed the baseboards warping that were not behind the fridge. Above you can see the damage looks scary, but was very minimal in the long run. The affected sheetrock and the baseboards were cut out. The exposed studs and flooring were cleaned and treated with an anti microbial before the everything was replaced. If you find heavy growth in your home, call SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa North.
