Mold tips
Whether you have mold in your home or suspect that a severe mold problem is present, it’s best to consult with a professional mold inspector. An inspector will be able to identify the type of mold and the extent of its growth in your home and recommend the best course of action for remediation.
If you suspect a mold problem in your home, keep the following tips in mind.
Check for musty odors and look for visible signs of mold growth (such as black or green spots on walls, ceilings, or floors, or any other areas) where moisture may accumulate.
Use a mold testing kit. You can purchase a mold testing kit from our front desk. The kit is inexpensive and will guide you in collecting samples of mold spores from specific parts of your home.
