Mold exists everywhere in the natural environment. It can become a problem for humans when the right conditions allow it to thrive inside a home or building. The primary conditions include:
Since most building materials serve as a good food source for mold, it tends to grow well inside walls and in basements. As we all know, Seattle and the Pacific Northwest have no shortage of moisture.
If you observe or suspect a mold infestation, Fischer Cleaning can inspect the area, test any identified substances and perform the necessary mold remediation, which includes quarantine, removal and treatment of affected areas.
Some types of mold can cause moderate to serious health problems for people and animals. People with compromised immune systems are especially at risk. Most mold issues, if identified and removed in time, require minor to moderate remediation.
With the increased public awareness of mold related issues in recent years, especially those associated with so-called Black Mold, more and more people are hiring a qualified Mold Inspection and Removal contractor such as Fischer Cleaning to inspect a house for the presence of mold prior to sale or purchase.
