How does mold grow?

Mold growth can occur on most common building surfaces such as sheetrock, wood, carpet, linoleum floor or on any organic material. Bathrooms, basements, areas around windows where moisture condenses, and near leaky water sources or sinks are also common mold growth areas. Growth can begin within 48 hours after the ideal moisture content has been achieved.

Common causes of moisture problems include roof leaks, poor maintenance, condensation associated with high humidity or cold spots in the building, plumbing system failures or heavy rains, poorly sealed buildings and slow leaks in plumbing systems.

Uncontrolled humidity in a property with a lack of ventilation can also be a source of moisture leading to mold growth. Regardless of the size, the location or the complexity of your residential or commercial project, mold removal procedures requires highly specialized skills from start to finish.

At Home Disaster Medics, we do it right. Our experience and state of the art equipment when it comes to dealing with mold cleaning and black mold removal ensures that your mold problem will be dealt with quickly, safely, and efficiently.

Preventing Future Mold Growth

When water intrudes into your property, mold growth can start in as little as 48 hours, and will be present almost everywhere; indoors and outdoors. Mold often produces a strong, musty odor, and that odor can lead you to possible mold problem areas. Mold spores are microscopic, float along in the air, and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.

The experts at Home Disaster Medics use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to eliminate mold colonies and to help prevent new colonies from forming. Removing and disposing of mold-infested porous materials, like drywall and carpeting, may be necessary to remediate heavy mold growth. The sooner you call professionals when you spot or suspect mold, the more material you will save from being infested.
