FAQs
Mold is part of the natural environment, found everywhere. When mold reproduces it releases microscopic spores, not visible to the naked eye. These spores are found both indoor and outdoors, carried by our hair, clothes, pets, in vents and more. Mold becomes a problem when the spores are introduced to excess moisture and organic material in which they can begin to colonize.
Mold requires the right environment to begin to grow and cause damage. This includes being in an environment that is often moisture-ridden with no chance to properly dry.
Common areas that can provide a moist environment include: damp, humid bathrooms or basements, Areas that lack proper ventilation or that are around leaky appliances, roofs, or pipes.
The #1 sign of mold damage will be of course what is seen. It is possible to see mold on walls, ceilings, furniture or other items. Other signs of mold or potential mold damage can include:
A musty, moldy smell or water stains that may be appear brown on ceilings, floors or walls .
The best solution is to always seek professional help and have an inspection and testing take place. This will provide answers as to whether mold damage is present, the type of mold and the areas affected in your home.

Mildew refers to certain kinds of mold or fungus. Mold can be any species of microscopic fungi. Both mold and mildew can have different colors and textures and show up in similar areas. While mildew is typically something homeowners can clean themselves with household cleaners, it is still important to realize that signs of both mold and mildew mean there is a potential issue with excess moisture that needs to be remediated. Only a professional inspection can determine whether you are truly dealing with mold damage.
Do not touch or bother any visible or suspected areas of mold. This also means restraining from trying to remove any materials like drywall or flooring. Lack of proper containments can cause the spread of spores and mold damage.
Consider contacting a professional mold damage company if you are truly dealing with mold and are in need of mold remediation.
