Mold Removal Service

Risks associated with mold

Having mold in your home comes with many risks, both for your health and for the structural integrity of the building. Getting the mold removed is vital in order to protect you from these risks.

Mold: a serious health hazard

The main problem with having mold in the home is its impact on the health of the occupants, particularly children and the elderly. Inhaling mold particles or spores can aggravate existing illnesses or trigger new health problems. The most common symptoms are eye irritation, sneezing, rash, allergic reactions and respiratory problems such as asthma.

Deterioration of building materials

Beyond health problems, the presence of mold can have medium and long-term consequences for a building’s structural integrity. Over time, the mold can spread from damp walls to the foundation, endangering the occupants of the building.

Furthermore, a property with a mold problem will decrease considerably in value.

The importance of acting fast

Mold is well known for its ability to form and spread at a rapid rate. In some cases, traces of mold can appear in just 24 hours. That’s why it’s important to act quickly to resolve any moisture problems and stop the mold before it has a chance to spread. The goal is to prevent the conditions from becoming unsanitary and reduce the risk of health problems.
