Calgary Mold Testing And Mold Removal Should Be Professionally Handled

Mold can develop in any home - large or small - new or old - renovated or not. Indeed, it doesn’t even have to be a typical home. It can be a high-rise, a cottage, even an office building. When there are higher-than-usual levels of moisture or humidity, there’s a chance for mold to develop.

The signs of mold are usually common, which is why mold testing is important. And those signs are warning signs. In some cases, mold may smell musty smell, but be hard to isolate. Sometimes, where water has intruded into a ceiling or wall, discoloration may be a sign of mold growth.

If mold is somehow suspected, then mold testing is required. It’s important to identify the source, evaluate the extent, and determine a cause. Mold requires moisture and nutrients to thrive. That could be moisture from a slow water leak, high indoor humidity, or high condensation levels.

Professional Mold Testing

Mold testing  in Calgary (followed by mold removal) should be professionally managed. Testing confirms the source, scope, and severity of an outbreak. And while mold removal is the main objective, there may be other work required in resolving the water, moisture, or humidity issues.

Testing and assessment is also important because mold produces “spores”. These are easily spread into the air when disturbed. Like mold, “spores” are a health hazard when inhaled. And here again, comprehensive mold removal is required to get to the source of the colony.

Professional Mold Removal

Mold can sometimes elude visual inspection. It can hide in soaked carpeting; in wet drywall; and in washroom cavities where air moisture collects. This is why comprehensive inspection, testing, and removal are necessary. It’s work for professionals who have the expertise.

Homeowners who prefer to opt for a do-it-yourself approach to mold should be discouraged from doing so. The DIY remedies have proven to deliver superficial results, with the risk of exposure to mold and spores. In particular, mold removal should be expertly handled.
