Service: Mold
In recent years, mold has received a lot of attention as a major environmental hazard. There are a lot of reasons for this. High-profile cases resulting in millions of dollars of litigation have been publicized through the media. Mold is fairly ubiquitous, needing only a food source, water and oxygen to flourish. And finally, mold causes severe allergic reactions in some people resulting in headaches, sore eyes and throat, nausea, sneezing, nose bleeds, respiratory infections and other unhealthy symptoms. If you think you have a mold problem, let us clear the air for you.

The Facts About Mold
Mold is everywhere
There are literally thousands of species of mold, and they can be found both indoors and outdoors. When mold spores become airborne and land on moist organic materials, they create colonies that will grow and grow as long as they have water and food. People come in contact with the microscopic particles mold releases either through the skin or by inhaling. The potential effect mold has on people may be determined by the kind of mold present, the type of contact, how long the person has been exposed and whether the person experiences allergic reactions to mold.
Looking for mold
We know how to perform proper and scientifically-based mold inspections, and we will help you devise a plan to manage your mold. First, we will assist you in finding the water source or water leak that is allowing the mold to grow. This moisture source can be visible to the eye, can be hidden within a wall or ventilation system, or may be residing in building materials that were wet during construction. Then we will conduct a thorough inspection based on our analysis of your mold situation and develop a specific plan to address your particular needs.
Getting rid of mold
Our expert technicians will perform a series of diagnostic tests to determine whether your building poses a potential health hazard due to mold. This includes gathering surface samples and monitoring your air quality. Once laboratory data has been analyzed, we can proceed with a remediation plan. One of the biggest issues with mold remediation is that mold will spread if not handled properly. Once the source of water intrusion has been identified and repaired, we then help you devise a plan to effectively remove all the building materials where mold is growing. Our detailed reports will provide you with the back-up you may need in dealing with any transactions or litigation associated with your building.
