Local Irondale Mold Removal
Why is there so much mold? Because the city of Irondale is so wet. It averages 55 inches of rain annually, about 34 gallons/ square foot. It rains 33% of the year.
Mold growth thrives in damp environments, especially in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements.
What is the concern? Mold can be a devastating health hazard. How do you know if you have it? You may smell musty odors. There may be slippery, oozy blemishes on contact surfaces like walls, cabinetry, ceilings, floors, and even floor coverings (rugs and carpets).
There are six common mold types commonly found indoors. Some fast-growing, like you see in rotting produce, and some is found in A/C units as well. Others are found in dirt, wallpaper, drapery and window frames, even on your ceiling! Contact, even with particulates (e.g. spores) in the air, may stimulate an asthmatic reaction, or an allergic response like hay fever.
And then, there is black mold, which is dark green and / or black. It is predominately located in areas in the ceiling, behind walls, and lurking under flooring. It is not to be treated by someone without the proper training in mold removal.
Mold is everywhere. It invades your home through doors, windows, and HVAC systems. And it spreads rapidly. It can only be mitigated by professional mold remediation. What does that mean?
‘Mold remediation’ gets rid of the mold problem in your home. This is done by removing mold from surfaces and the air, and then inhibiting its future growth.
Severe mold infestations may require improvements to water drainage pathways on adjacent lawns, or even the replacement of infested walls or flooring.
Mold remediation is a process that may include ‘air scrubbers’ to contain any airborne mold spores. This is followed by cleaning, disinfecting, and the application of fungicides.
Following that, the source of the mold invasion must be pinpointed and repaired (primarily to reduce excess moisture / humidity.) Biohazards and hoarding can create dangerous mold growth as well.
This is a complicated process and ensuring that you are free from health hazards is paramount. Professional help is a must. Nothing must be left to chance. This is not a chore to be done by yourself.
