Mold Remediation
Mold is a fungi that can be found both indoors and outdoors. Many species of fungi exist; estimates range from tens of thousands to perhaps three hundred thousand or more. As a general rule, mold grows best in warm, damp, and humid conditions. It spreads and reproduces by making spores, and, if not addressed in a timely fashion, can spread very quickly.

Mold in your home can be caused by many reasons ranging from basement flooding, burst water pipes, leaky roofs, or high humidity. When mold occurs, it not only can be a cause of actual physical damage to your home and its contents, mold can also result in a variety of adverse health effects including allergic reactions, asthma, watery eyes, skin irritations and respiratory complaints. For these reasons, it's important to address your water and mold issues quickly and efficiently within the first 48 hours.

Simple cleaning products like bleach and water may not effectively eliminate mold because spores may have already spread to other rooms or locations around effected areas. When water damage occurs, you may also be forced to remove moldy materials, such as carpets and couches, from your home for proper cleaning and deodorizing.
