Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration


Mold is Everywhere

Microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, outdoors and indoors, making it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Some restoration businesses advertise "mold removal" and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts;

-Mold is present almost everywhere indoors and out

-Mold spores are microscopic and floating along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothes or on a pet. 

-Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water.

-Before mold remediation can begin, any source 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.
