Mold and Health Problems
Excessive amounts of indoor mold can cause health problems in humans. Mold growth and moisture in your business or home can contribute to a variety of health problems for you, your family, co-workers, employees, or tenants. Over the past 10 years or so, hundreds of important, research based documents have been published that detail the many health problems that can result from moisture and indoor mold growth.
Please don’t risk your health. If you think that you, a loved one, or others in your life are suffering health issues related to mold or moisture, contact us for a professional evaluation.
What are the classic Symptoms of Mold Exposure?
The presence of mold in homes, schools and business is a fast growing health concern in the U.S. Mold can thrive on virtually any organic material such as wood, paper, carpet, food, insulation, etc. Just add water and in 48 hours mold can begin to grow. Any time water intrusion occurs, be it a major flood or a minor plumbing leak that was not immediately and thoroughly dried out, there is a high probability of mold growth. Mold can cause significant aesthetic and structural damage to building materials and other personal property. Indoor mold growth can also negatively impact indoor air quality and pose certain health risks to occupants.
Mold often grows behind walls and inside ceiling and floor cavities long before it is ever detected. By the time you start smelling an unpleasant odor rest assured mold has been growing somewhere for some time and every day is growing more. If you suspect you have mold growing indoors, the time to act is sooner rather than later.
Mold inspections and mold testing are the means to identifying indoor mold problems. Most often inspections and testing work best in conjunction with each other, however, there are instances when certain questions can be answered with one or the other.
