Why Hire a Professional Mold Remediation Company in Florida?

Information may not be reliable

Mold is a fungus that thrives in damp and dark places and poses health risks to building occupants. It usually stems from a recent water damage event, such as a broken pipe, a roof leak, or basement seepage. In as little as 24 to 48 hours, mold can develop; if not removed properly, it proceeds to destroy surrounding building materials such as wood or drywall and cause health threats.

Do-it-yourself mold removal can be tempting, but mold remediation is a job that is best done by professionals, such as the team of ServiceMaster by Wright. Here are some reasons why you need to call the experts when mold infests your home or commercial building.  

What is Mold Remediation?

• If there is visible mold on the wall, you should know that there’s a good chance there is mold that you can’t see—on the other side of the wall.
• Mold thrives in wet, damp environments. 
• Trapped moisture inside walls create the perfect environment for mold growth.
• By the time you see it on the exterior of a wall, it may already be a very serious problem.

• Mold poses health hazards to humans and animals. 
• A species of mold, Stachybotrys chartarum, is toxic and can endanger the health of those exposed to it. It is also called black mold. 
• Exposure to toxic black mold and its spores can cause health problems, ranging from eye, nose, and throat irritation to headaches. It is potentially harmful to remove it without proper knowledge and equipment, which is why it's better to leave it to the experts. 

• Mold thrives in areas with excessive humidity and dampness.
• Mold often grows after a recent water damage event.

• A do-it-yourself cleanup performed on a mold-infested area is ineffective. Chemicals may not be enough, since mold spores can still be circulating in the air. The complete containment and removal of mold is the recommended way to safely deal with it.

What to Consider When Hiring Professional Help

• Experience is very important.  
• A company that has been in the business for more than 10 years will be prepared for any situation and will know how to best handle the job.
• Sometimes it is necessary to have your HVAC air ducts professionally cleaned since air ducts can collect dust and mold spores.  
• Hiring a mold professional doesn’t have to be as confusing as you may think and the good ones won’t push unnecessary testing.
• Professionals have reasonable pricing, are able to articulate the work in detail and have the training, skill and equipment.

Choosing a Professional Mold Remediation Specialist Company

• House maintenance budget may help with mold expenses, but still, a mold infestation not treated from the beginning can be dangerous and costly.

• If from the start you called up the mold remediation experts, you will be assured to receive a proper mold evaluation.
