Mold growth and disclosure do not have to stop a purchase or sale. Mold exists everywhere on the planet. It is part of the natural environment.

Mold Stopping A Sale?

Small isolated areas of mold do not require professional mold remediation. It is not uncommon to find mold on windowsills or in bathroom areas as a result of condensation. Professional mold remediation is recommended for areas that cover more than 10 square feet, but it is not always necessary. We frequently inform property owners of maintenance recommendations that eliminate the conditions leading to mold growth, work they can do themselves!

It is not at all uncommon to discover mold in basements, crawl spaces, and attics. Buyers and sellers should not be dissuaded or dismayed by mold in those areas.

Visible mold growth does not typically require lab analysis. There are isolated instances where analysis may be desired; in general, if mold is visible, removal methods are standard.

Misinformation is prevalent on the internet. We do not promote fear-based marketing tactics. Mold may cause sensitivity in some individuals; people with health concerns should consult with a healthcare provider. Mold remediation contractors are not qualified to dispense medical advice.

Moisture Accumulation

Mold growth indicates moisture accumulation. It can be a useful sign of elevated humidity, plumbing leaks, or water intrusion. Once the moisture source is identified and corrected and mold is removed, it will not recur as long as the environment is managed effectively. Eliminating mold growth begins with controlling interior building conditions and following a simple maintenance routine.
