Why Choose MoldAway?

Mold is a fungus that thrives on materials that are moist, warm, and in dark spaces. It can begin to grow in as little as 24-hours after a water breach and can spread to the size of a square foot in a matter of days. Mold consists of spores that float in the air, and collect on a moist surface to build colonies. The spores can be inhaled and may cause illness in those who are sensitive to them.

After a discovery that mold is growing in your home, you might wonder what mold remediation is, does it really work and how will it help me protect the health of my family and those who live and work on my property.

Finding mold growth in your home may cause alarm, and it may leave you wondering if you need mold remediation. After a water breach, mold can begin to grow in a very short time. Once it starts, the mold colony can spread quickly and cover a square foot in just days. Mold spreads when it has moisture, warmth, and darkness. It uses a moist surface, often porous like wood, paper, carpet, and drywall, to feed. Without moisture, it cannot spread. Remediation can help as it not only stops the moisture but limits the opportunity for mold re-growth in a space.

You need mold remediation as soon as you discover that a water intrusion has occurred and suspect that mold has begun to grow. The extent of the remediation may vary based on the results of the inspection conducted by certified technicians but stopping the growth and removing the remaining colonies is essential to protecting the health and safety of those who live and work in your space. Left untreated, mold colonies will spread and continue to release spores into the air. This drastically increases the health risks associated with mold.

The time that it takes to remediate a mold issue on a property can vary depending on factors such as the size of the space, the extent of the mold infection, and the damage that has been caused. In many cases, the work can be done in a day or two, but other times it may take weeks to return your property to its pre-mold infestation condition.

Mold exposure can be dangerous to those who are sensitive to inhaling its spores. For others, it can cause allergy-like symptoms. The degree of danger of mold exposure can change depending on how sensitive an individual is to its spores, how long the person has been exposed, and the extent of the mold infestation of the property. To limit the chance that exposed individuals will suffer severe and lasting health effects as a result of exposure to mold, it is best to begin mold remediation as soon as growth is suspected.

Mold remediation costs can vary depending on the size of the property affected, the degree of the infestation, and the cause of the moisture. Costs of remediation might be balanced against those associated with the increased risk of health-related injury to those who are living and working in a mold-infested space. The MoldAway team can assist you and work with your insurance company to ensure that you are able to bring your property back to a safe and clean state in as short as time possible.
