Mold Restoration
Molds are types of fungi that grow in the natural environment. Tiny particles of molds are found in the air both indoors and outdoors, producing microscopic cells called “spores” that are spread easily through the air. When mold spores land on a damp spot, they may begin to grow and multiply. A wet surface or material that is not dried or discarded quickly (for example flooding or water damage from a burst pipe) can prompt the growth of mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Why Do I Have Mold?
Many building materials provide suitable nutrients that encourage mold to grow. Wet cellulose materials, including paper and paper products, cardboard, ceiling tiles, wood and dust, paints, wallpaper, insulation materials, drywall, carpet, fabric and upholstery commonly support mold growth.
How Do I Prevent Mold?
Moisture control is the key to mold control. Molds need both food and water to survive. Since molds can digest nearly anything, water is the factor that limits mold growth. Common sources or causes of water or moisture problems include roof leaks, deferred maintenance, condensation associated with high humidity or cold spots in the building. Controlling moisture, temperature, and humidity is the only way to prevent the expansion of mold growth in your home or office.
