What is Mold Remediation?
It’s impossible to remove all mold spores from an indoor environment.
That’s where mold remediation comes in.
Mold growth can become a problem in your home or office where there is sufficient moisture and the right environment for mold to multiply. The key to preventing mold growth is to prevent all sources of moisture. Remediation brings out of control fungi to natural levels, and addresses the cause to prevent it from happening again.
The most effective way to prevent mold growth is to keep the indoor environment clean and dry.
- Have building materials been wet more than 48 hours?
- Are there hidden sources of water or is the humidity too high(high enough to cause condensation)?
- Has the building been recently remodeled or has building use changed?
- Are building materials or furnishings visibly damaged?
- Are building occupants reporting health problems?
- Are building occupants reporting musty or moldy odors?
- Are there existing moisture problems in the building?
Attic Crew can quickly and affordably address these mold and water damage situations.

FAQ'S:
Indoor air quality refers to the quality of the air inside a building or structure. It is crucial because poor indoor air quality can lead to various health issues and discomfort for occupants.
Mold growth can negatively impact indoor air quality and cause structural damage by feeding on organic materials like wood, drywall, and insulation. As it grows, it can weaken and deteriorate these building materials, potentially leading to costly repairs.
It is advisable to seek mold inspection and remediation services when you observe signs of mold growth, such as a musty odor, visible mold patches, or experiencing allergic reactions or health issues associated with mold exposure.
Common signs of mold include a musty or earthy smell, the presence of visible mold patches, water stains, peeling or bubbling paint, or experiencing unexplained allergic reactions or health symptoms in a specific area of the building.
There are numerous types of mold, but common indoor molds include Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Stachybotrys. The presence of any type of mold indoors should be addressed promptly to prevent further issues.
Exposure to mold can cause allergic reactions, such as sneezing, coughing, or skin irritation. It can also lead to more severe health problems in individuals with compromised immune systems or respiratory conditions. Long-term exposure may result in chronic respiratory issues.
Mold removal experts follow a specific remediation protocol, which includes identifying the moisture source and fixing it, isolating the affected area to prevent cross-contamination, removing mold-infested materials, using proper protective equipment, and employing specialized cleaning techniques. Hiring a reputable mold removal company is crucial to ensure effective and safe mold remediation.
