Professional Mold Remediation & Inspection Services

Mold remediation is the process of identifying, containing, and removing mold from an indoor environment. This typically involves cleaning affected areas, removing contaminated materials, and preventing future mold growth through proper moisture control.

Common signs include visible mold growth, a musty odor, unexplained health symptoms like allergies, or water damage in your home. If you’ve experienced recent flooding or high humidity, it’s important to check for mold.

Yes, mold can cause health issues, especially for individuals with allergies, asthma, or weakened immune systems. Symptoms can range from respiratory issues, skin irritation, and allergic reactions to more severe complications in extreme cases.

While minor mold issues (less than 10 square feet) can be handled with proper safety precautions and equipment, larger infestations or hidden mold should be addressed by professionals to ensure thorough removal and safety.

The cost varies based on factors like the size of the affected area, the severity of the infestation, and any structural damage. On average, mold remediation costs range from $500 to $6,000 or more for large-scale projects.

However, mold caused by neglect or maintenance issues is typically not covered. You should always consult with your insurance policy and contact your agent for details.

• Fix water leaks promptly.
• Ensure proper ventilation in damp areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
