Mold Removal and Remediation

 Do You Need Mold Removal in Your Sanford Home?

Over two-thirds of homes in the U.S. have mold spores caused by moisture, and while it may not seem like a big deal, it's actually very dangerous. The mold from the crawl space can infiltrate your living areas through small drafts and HVAC systems that blow spores throughout the interior of your Sanford home. By leaving it untreated, this mold can cause serious health problems for you and your family.

Why Is Mold Remediation and Removal Important?

According to The Environmental Protection Agency, 65 percent of the air your family breathes on the first floor of the home travels from the crawl space and basement. As your HVAC system runs, mold spores, dust mites, and other toxic pollutants are drawn into the interior of the home through the wall and floor penetration. The commonly called "Stack Effect" or "Chimney Effect" is to blame.

To simplify terms, the crawl space or basement is the origins of the  unhealthy air inside of your living area. When you heat and cool the inside temperature of your home, you are also inadvertently pulling in the pollutants growing inside the crawl space or basement. The odor is often the best indicator of poor air, but many contaminants are odorless.

The Truth About Mold

The air we breath everywhere has mold spores and seeds of mold, and at acceptable levels, they do not pose a threat to most of us. When the heat and humidity start to rise in late spring in Sanford, mold spores start to wake up from hibernation and then start to breed and feed. We cannot control the temperature and humidity fluctuation in nature, but we can control what happens inside our house!

Mold Remediation Experts in Sanford Get Rid of Mold

The good news is that mold remediation gets rid of spores and growth!   Our licensed, bonded and insured process of safely removing mold can bring your home back to its healthy state by cleaning, drying out spaces, and removing soiled insulation. Your home's crawl space will look better than it did during the original construction.

Mold Remediation and Encapsulation Go Hand-in-Hand

If we were to remove all of the molds in the crawl space or basement and we did not seal off all of the sources of the heat and humidity, the mold issue starts back the minute we stop cleaning. To obtain a healthy home, it's important to have foundation and basement waterproofing or crawl space encapsulation performed so the moisture problems are stopped and the mold can't grow back.
