Mold is natural and helps break down dead plants outdoors—but it shouldn’t grow inside your home. Mold spreads through tiny spores in the air and starts growing on wet or damp surfaces. There are many types of mold, but none can grow without moisture.

There are many factors of mold growth and mold removal that affect the overall cost of remediation, including the location and type of the mold, the size of the problem, and the kind of remediation that is necessary.

Molds are usually not a problem indoors unless mold spores land on a wet or damp spot and begin growing. Molds have the potential to cause health problems. 

Moisture is the main cause of mold. To stop mold for good, the water issue must be fully fixed and the mold properly removed. After cleanup, there should be no moldy smells or visible growth—though some stains may remain. It's a good idea to check the area again soon after and monitor it over time to catch any future issues early.

If you are dealing with a small area that does not require professional remediation, maybe you can clean up your own mold problem. Professional cleaners or remediators may use methods and products not available to consumers. Mold may cause staining and cosmetic damage. It may not be possible to clean an item so that its original appearance is restored. Don't take chances—contact us today for a quick quote and let us handle the cleanup and restoration the right way.
