Simple Signs You May Have a Mold Problem

  1. Moldy Smell. It's a unique smell. Even if you don't discern anything, you know that it's there.
  2. visible microbial growth. Dark splotches on the ceilings, walls floors or baseboards. Spots in the ceiling may suggest a leaky roof, burst pipe, or condensation in the ductwork. Dark patches or the appearance of brown or black mold that are visible on the walls may suggest a cracked or burst pipe in the drywall. This may be a slow leak, but the damage can only increase.
  3. Soft Moist Spots on the floors, walls or Ceiling. This could be a sign that the microbial growth is occurring. The mold may have not been visible yet, but it could be behind the drywall or on the support studs, underneath the flooring or in the roof of your home.
  4. Sudden Unexplained Illness. The constant headaches, coughing or nausea or feeling ill only when at home or in certain areas. The persistent symptoms of allergies may be a sign that mold may be present. The four groups that are most vulnerable to mold-related illnesses are:
    • Children
    • Older people
    • Immune Deficient
    • Women who are pregnant
  5. Recent Flood Event. The spores require water to grow, so a recent water leak or flood, or sewer back-up may have caused the appropriate water activity in order to support mold growth.
If you notice any of these signs, call now for a comprehensive mold inspection. A certified and comprehensive testing will be readily available. If there's a problem, professionals can find the issue and repair it.
