There When Disaster Strikes

Cleaning up mold quickly and safely is important, but unless you find and fix the source of moisture in your home, your mold problems will return.

Significant mold growth can happen in just 24 to 72 hours (about 3 days). Cleaning up mold quickly and safely is important, but unless you find and fix the source of moisture in your home, your mold problems will return.

The longer mold has to grow, the more damage it can cause.

It is recommended by the Environmental Health Lab with the California Department of Public Health to hire a licensed contractor for larger projects (more than 11 square feet of infected space) and even for smaller projects to ensure that your problem is taken care of.

Understanding the Risks of Mold in Your Home

You are exposed to indoor mold by breathing in mold spores. Mold spores can be on materials like walls, floors, furniture or float in the air.

It is common to find mold spores in the air floating around infected homes. In fact, everyone is exposed to mold spores every day. In small quantities it can be harmless. But, once the mold spores are met with moisture, the mold has an opportunity to grow. Larger problems with indoor mold and moisture are more likely to cause health problems including:

Allergic Reactions (often called Hay Fever)
Cause or worsen Asthma
Respiratory infections such as colds, the flu, and in severe cases fungal infections.

With the proper remediation techniques, mold regrowth can be easily prevented.

The length of time needed for proper mold remediation will depend entirely on the extent of the infestation. Small areas may only take a day or two to remove, while larger or widespread contamination can take up to a week or longer.

Smaller mold patches can sometimes be cleaned with household products like vinegar or bleach, but to avoid improper cleaning and exposure to the long-term effects of mold, sometimes it is better left to the professionals.
