Common questions
Is mold dangerous?
Mold can trigger allergy and asthma symptoms and irritate eyes, skin and lungs in some people, according to the CDC. People with weakened immune systems may be at greater risk.
How do I know if I have mold?
Common signs include a musty odor, visible spots, past leaks or flooding, peeling paint, and condensation. An inspection can find hidden mold.
Can I clean mold myself?
EPA guidance says homeowners can often clean areas smaller than about 10 square feet. Larger areas, HVAC systems, and mold from contaminated water are best handled by professionals.
What causes mold?
Moisture. Leaks, flooding, high humidity, condensation and poor ventilation give mold what it needs to grow.
