Proper mold remediation is important for the overall health and safety of you and your family. Remediation is the action of remedying, stopping and reversing environmental damage. Mold is an environmental element and it is the cause of so much damage in so many homes; both in the home structure and in the people and pets who live there. Don’t let mold damage your home and loved ones!
Mold (and mildew) is a fungus. It is very dangerous for people’s health. And it destroys wood, drywall, and other home construction materials too. Mold grows in moist and warm areas. Homes are expensive to repair. But you can’t put a price on the health of people! So if you detect an area with mold or mildew in your home it’s time to take action and contact us because we are a professional mold remediation company.
Mold Detection
Mold and mildew is not always easy to detect, especially if it is inside your walls, in the ceiling, or under a rug. Sometimes you can spot mold on surfaces out in the open. It’s usually shades of pink, brown, green, or black. Also, a large amount of mold might leave a musty or sour odor in the air. Mold and mildew release spores into the air that we can inhale into our lungs.
If you can smell mold then you are actually inhaling mold spores at that very moment! In this case you should take immediate action by seeking a proper mold remediation service.
Severe Health Risk
In most people these spores cause severe allergic reactions. People might have symptoms like nasal congestion, watery eyes, difficulty breathing, recurring sicknesses, or general fatigue. Furthermore, according to doctors, mold is also known to cause asthma and life-threatening primary and secondary infections in immune-compromised patients that have been exposed. Toxic mold exposure has also been linked to more serious, long-term effects like memory loss, insomnia, anxiety, depression, trouble concentrating, and confusion.
Doctors and do not recommend living in these hazards conditions. Especially when there are children living in that home since they are more sensitive to these dangerous spores. Once inhaled, spores may germinate, attaching to cells on respiratory tract, causing many problems for people with a weak immune system.
Proper Mold Remediation
There are different ways to approach proper mold remediation. Some people do it themselves if the mold is a small patch and resting on a surface. But overall, this is not the best solution for several reasons. It is always better to use a professional mold and mildew remediation service.
A professional will always know what type of mold is in your home, which is the best solution for your mold problem and what is the best product to be used in your home in order to safely remediate mold and mildew.

And safely removing and destroying the growth supporting materials that have mold contamination.
