Mold reproduces rapidly, one spore becoming a billion in a single day under normal conditions. It likes dark, damp environments best such as the inside of a wall. That’s why when you see mold outside of the wall you normally find a hundred times as much inside!
We have been on jobs where a hot water heater failed, and the mold was at the bottom of the wall in the morning, and by the late afternoon had grown to cover the wall. For more information on mold and it’s potential health risks, subscribe to our blog.
The way we can tell if there is a mold problem in a home or business (when it isn’t visibly obvious) is to confirm it with an air test, taken both inside and then outside of the home.
Advanced Recovery has been helping homeowners and businesses remove dangerous mold or sewage spills since 2001. We know what it takes to salvage your property, rebuild, and restore it to a pristine condition.
