Mold Risks and Causes

Property owners have a crucial responsibility to detect and resolve mold issues to prevent potential health and legal repercussions. It's vital to stay vigilant for common signs of mold exposure, such as respiratory difficulties, persistent coughing, and irritation of the throat, lungs, and eyes. Certain demographic groups, including individuals with asthma, allergies, underlying medical conditions, young children, and the elderly, are more vulnerable to health problems stemming from mold exposure.

Numerous factors contribute to mold growth, including elevated moisture levels, instances of flooding, plumbing issues, HVAC system malfunctions, roof and window leaks, inadequate ventilation, and the age of the property's construction. Furthermore, building materials like particleboard, drywall, and plywood are particularly susceptible to mold development. Recognizing these indicators and risk elements empowers property owners to proactively address mold-related concerns.
