WE UNDERSTAND MOLD 

Confusion and misunderstanding surround the topic of mold and mold remediation. Some restoration businesses even make claims to remove all mold from a building. This is a fallacy. Mold spores occur naturally almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. These microscopic spores float along in the air and can enter a home or business through windows and HVAC systems. Consider these facts:

  •   Mold is present everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
  •   Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
  •   Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
  •   Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
  •   Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
  •   Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
