Most Common Places To Check For Mold Growth

Monday, September 20th, 2010
Mold Growth – What To Look For
Mold growth can be dangerous. Particularly, if it’s black mold. Mold occurs as a result of too much moisture in an enclosed area. Spores form and begin to grow into full colonies until they are large enough to be visible with the human eye. Mold can be a result of moisture in an enclosed room with too high a temperature or even in ambient temperatures where spores can attach themselves to walls and floors. This is the most common place to find mold growth.

Check Regularly For Mold Growth
In homes where there are high levels of humidity, homes and buildings are often the most common places to check for mold growth. Check basement floors and walls regularly for signs of moisture or moisture vapors in small cracks and crevices. Don’t overlook the upper levels of structures either. Many times, black mold growth can develop around water pipes under the kitchen or bathroom sinks. If the structure has had any damage due to basement flooding or water damage from a fire, it is important to have the structure thoroughly inspected for mold as soon as possible.

Mold In The Refrigerator?
Mold occurs in and around refrigerators as a result of inadequate maintenance. Check behind refrigerators as well as in any collection pans where condensation can occur. Condensation is one of the chief reasons for mold growth. So also check dishwashers and garbage disposal units thoroughly. A reputable inspection and maintenance company that specializes in mold growth remediation is the best way to remediate any problems or potential problems. These professional consultants know all of the most important areas of a structure that can cause mold growth. They can provide a check list after their inspections are done and offer advice to reduce mold growth in the future.

Mold Growth – An Odor Problem
Whenever there is a mold growth problem, by the time mold odors are detected in a structure, it may already be too late to do it yourself to remove the source. Call in a professional for maximum peace of mind.

Is Your Condo Protected?

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010
So, you finally made a leap of faith and purchased your dream condo, but how do you know that it is properly protected? More often than not, your condo’s maintenance will be under the supervision of your respective condo association, who may not be hiring the proper restoration companies to take care of water, mold, and fire damage. So how can you convince them to do so? This guide will help you learn how to make sure that your condo association is using the best restoration company available to properly take care of water, mold, and fire damage if and when it occurs.

The first thing you will want to do when making sure that your condo association chooses a company that can properly manage such damage issues is to communicate to them the huge disadvantages of not contracting a company that can handle such repairs. Make it clear to them that hiring an unqualified company can lead to more damage and unforseen lost time. Let them know that hiring a qualified company will mean less headaches and less work for them in the long and short-term. More often than not, condo associations will hire a company based on their price quotes and not on the actual quality of work. Though this may seem smart to them, this is a huge mistake for those that own condos under the supervision of the association, since it can mean that the job will not be done right the first time. Such scenarios can lead to lost time for the condo owners, as well as an embarrassment when friends or family decide to visit them and see subpar work done, or worse, no work done at all on the damaged areas of their residence.

The second thing you’ll want to communicate to your condo association is that a cheap price quote from their current unqualified vendor may not translate into any price savings whatsoever. Let them know that a cheap price quote often means cheap work done, which usually only leads to more repairs down the road, which cause even more expenses, since the job wasn’t not done right the first time.

You need professional help with the equipment to dry all the different sections of the structure as well as treat the mold and mildew that will have started forming immediately.

Structural drying is required as soon as possible after a water disaster.

Warning! Avoid Mold in Your Child’s Bedroom

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Dear Reader,

We’ve all heard the stories about “black” mold in the media and how dangerous it can be. Many people believe that’s a problem in old, dilapidated houses. True enough but any house can be susceptible to mold growth. It doesn’t take walls covered with it for it to present a health concern. Children with compromised immune systems are especially vulnerable but any child can suffer from the effects. Super Restoration can help with these troubles.

Does your child have allergy trouble? Asthma? Does he or she seem to always have some sort of cold?

Mold present in your home can cause all of those problems. It’s just one more thing their bodies have to fight off. Especially during the flu season when immune systems need to be at top efficiency. Mold in their bedroom is just not an option.

Companies such as Super Restoration are able to deal with your mold problems on an emergency basis if necessary. They can deal with mold removal and also restore your home in such a way as to help prevent another recurrence of dangerous levels of mold. It can’t be kept out completely but it can be controlled.

Super Restoration has equipment such as HEPA vacuum cleaners to rid the floors and furniture of mold spores. They can also do work such as installing humidity control devices for your furnace, seal air leaks to prevent build up of moisture and take away mold’s preferred stagnant air conditions. Super Restoration can remodel and repair any walls that have been harboring mold growth or are at danger of harboring mold growth due to flooding or other major or minor problem with your home.

Studies done by the Mayo Clinic have identified mold as the causative factor in chronic sinusitis in 37 million Americans. Is your child one of these? Mold is also implicated in an increase in childhood asthma. Are you one of those parents that has had to sit with your child in the ER with an asthma attack? Do you have to be ready with a nebulizer when your child can’t breath at night due to asthma?

A company like Super Restoration can take care of all these problems with the skills of experience. You don’t want to discover you child has been suffering unnecessarily from mold in their bedrooms and then have an ill equipped company handle your problem. You want it gone. You want your child to sleep safely without having to worry about breathing problems, coughing, poor health or risking the health of a child who already is dealing with a compromised immune system.

Get the mold out and sleep well at night knowing your child is too.
