All City Environmental has dealt with moisture creeping into San Francisco homes for years, finding all the spots where structural integrity has been compromised and the places where mold has had a chance to thrive. Mold contamination can be avoided and mold remediation San Francisco employees have vast experience in both moisture prevention and mold remediation.The first step is a home inspection. Moisture coming in is of utmost concern, as it is an enemy to not only interior surfaces, but also clothes and furnishings. Mold loves a wet environment, so as it grows it can release toxic spores into the air. This can create or aggravate health problems. The owner at All City Environmental states, “Once mold growth has started, it can easily spread and end up on floors, carpets, furniture and clothing.”
Inspectors must look to roof, window and wall failures. These situations allow a warm and wet environment that mold finds appealing. Fixing leaky windows, repairing compromised roofs and replacing faulty wall structures can stop the leaking of moisture into a home. Of course, the inspectors need to know what to look for. They should also be trained in how to recognize and deal with the resulting mold growth.
Other things which can affect moisture levels in a home are the lifestyle of the occupants. This would include the amount of heating and cooling done and how much cooking and showering were taking place. How many people live in the home also affects moisture levels. According to State Farm Insurance Learning Center, humidity in the home matters because managing it can prevent damage to the structure’s paint, wood and siding as well as improve the residents’ personal comfort.
Residents and business owners may recognize moisture problems when paint begins to peel and stains appear on walls and ceilings. These also can indicate leaks. When humid or damp conditions reign, the frame of the home can actually become riddled with rotten wood. It is then time to call mold removal San Francisco professionals to do an inspection and analysis, sending samples to the lab so fungal contamination can be identified. Some molds may be more dangerous than others.
It is reported on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website that exposure to damp and moldy environments can cause a wide array of adverse health effects. Those sensitive to molds can develop irritation to the respiratory system, eye irritation and even skin irritation. With so many bad effects from dampness, humidity and mold growth, it is wise to rely on the expertise of a mold remediation company with extensive experience in dealing with moisture problems and mold.
