Commercial Mold Remediation

If you’ve experienced water damage or an unusual musty odor in your facility, you may be at risk of mold contamination. In addition to affecting indoor air quality, molds can produce toxins that can cause serious health risks. Mold growth can occur anywhere moist air condenses, and eliminating it isn’t always easy.

Mold is caused by excess moisture in the air. It is produced by spores and can take over an area in as little as 24-48 hours. The moisture can be caused by poor ventilation, leaking pipes, plumbing problems, rain seeping in from a damaged roof or around window frames, or rising water in basements or ground floors. Buildings that are not properly maintained are particularly in danger of mold contamination. The best way to avoid mold and keep it from recurring is to keep your facility free of moisture.

Although most mold is detectable by smell and signs of water damage, it can grow in places invisible to the human eye, such as behind paneling, underneath carpets or carpet padding, on the inside of ceiling tiles, and on the back of drywall.

Commercial mold remediation can solve these problems, but it’s important to ensure the team handling your cleaning is professional and understands the intricacies that come with proper commercial mold remediation.

Mold: A Silent Danger

Mold damage is dangerous and can create health problems for many people, especially those who struggle with allergies and asthma. Those who are sensitive can face a wide variety of health issues when they are exposed to mold toxins. Some of the more serious health problems according to the CDC include:

• Throat irritation
• Nasal stuffiness
• Cough
• Wheezing
• Skin irritation

Mold can be especially harmful to infants and children, so daycares, schools, and other facilities where children frequent should use extreme caution to avoid mold and promptly handle any issues with contamination.
