Mold Remediation
Understanding Mold: Risks and Identification
Mold is more than just an unsightly nuisance; it’s a health hazard that can affect air quality and lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems. Mold thrives in damp, humid conditions, often resulting from unresolved water damage or poor ventilation. Identifying a mold problem early is crucial to preventing its spread and safeguarding your health.
Identifying Mold Problems
Symptoms may include:
Wall Discoloration
Musty Odors
High Moisture / Humidity

Respiratory Problems
Mold Needs Four Things To Grow:
A Stable Environment: A perfect 50 – 70 degrees.
Organic Material: Wood, dust, pet hair, boxes
Mold Spores
Moisture

Why Our Solution For Mold Is Different
When removing mold we use a professional spray system that contains no bleach or harmful chemicals and kills mold while leaving an anti-microbial barrier that prevents future growth. The musty odor disappears.
Important Note on Mold Spores
While mold can affect the odor and visual appeal of your basement, the best reason to have it removed is for the health of your family. Mold is one of the leading triggers of asthma attacks and can lead to long-term allergy symptoms, especially in children and the elderly. Remember, the air in your basement will become the air you breathe in your living space.
