By Timothy Pitters

There is nothing worse, some would say, and it caused a great deal of damage to the structure as well as the peace of mind that was all but broken. Problems with respiratory illnesses, costs involved in clean up and the hits on reputations are quite severe. When you have mold damage to your home or basement, it seems like an invasion of something caused by nature.

The tell tale signs of molds infestation can be as easily discovered as smelling something very earthy or damp. This will occur in places such as the basement or crawlspace. It can also come from inside a wall, especially an exterior wall or one that contains the main wet wall in your home. This is the wall that has pipes running through it.

The exterior walls are primary areas of concern as they may leak from a local, recent flood or a sewer system back up. The wet wall might be hiding a leaking pipe or a leak from the roof. Since the wet wall is hiding the main piping for your house, it may show signs of dampness or an actual leak underneath that can come out into an adjacent area.

Mold spores are everywhere. The introduction of these organisms will begin the process of a dangerous condition in your home if they can get to moisture within. When you contact a mold remediation company in Michigan, they can fill you in on what happens when this occurs. Just because you have water on the surface does not necessarily mean you have mold. The removal of this will help prevent this from happening, but the water is the fuel that makes additional growth possible.

Since most people who have respiratory problems will have itchy eyes, throat and runny nose when molds are present, it is a good idea to call a professional. They have the specific training and the specialized equipment to locate and remove this menace to you and help prevent further infestations. They can locate this contaminated air and growing molds wherever they are.

Since moisture is the main problem, along with dark places, these experts will verify that the moisture is moderated to less than 50 percent. They will spend some time looking into all of the darker places in your house, such as the basement, attics, test walls and sub floors and ensure that, if mold are present, they are removed.

As these experts find problems, through a thorough inspection of your home, they will take the steps necessary to remove and sanitize all areas. This may include removing parts of walls, floors, ceilings or even furnishings that can not be cleaned properly. All of this material, thus removed, will have to be disposed of in certified disposal sites using appropriate licenses and permits.

Prevention of conditions that assist in mold growth is something that should be undertaken on a daily basis. Contact plumbers for any leaks quickly. Have a home inspection done every few years and. If you do smell that tell tale earthy order or anyone in the family develops any repository illness symptoms they did not have before, take action. Call on a home restoration company to come in and take a detailed look.
