From high humidity to moisture damage without appropriate ventilation, there are many underlying causes of mold damage in Fort Lauderdale homes and businesses. Finding these colonies in your building can be alarming and stressful, especially with the potential damage they can do to structural integrity and comfortable living conditions.

Mold Inspections Help Removal Efforts

The first step in mold remediation and removal services is inspecting the property. Assessments like these confirm the presence of mold in the residence and determine the extent of the infestation and damage. The production manager evaluates the property, catalogs loss, and the condition of hosting elements to choose the best remediation approach to resolve the effects. 

What Remediation Options Are Preferred?

The right remediation option for the situation is a product of the inspection. The severity of the infestation and the affected hosting material require different mold removal approaches. These range considerably from non-invasive methods to more aggressive solutions targeting ruined materials. Options for remediation and mold removal include: 

• Sporicidal Products
• Surface Wiping
• Sanding
• Soda Blasting
• Controlled Demolition

Understanding Mold

Confusion and misunderstanding surround the topic of mold and mold remediation. Some restoration businesses even make claims to remove all mold from a building. This is a fallacy. Mold spores occur naturally almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. These microscopic spores float along in the air and can enter a home or business through windows and HVAC systems. Consider these facts:

• Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
• Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
• Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
• Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
• Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
