Oh no! You saw mold on the ceiling, under the bathroom upstairs. What do you do now?

Here’s what you need to know about mold you find in your house…

Yes, it’s ugly.

Yes, it can be dangerous.

And, it’s hard to get rid of by yourself. You may need a professional to evaluate the problem and offer a solution.

Once mold infests your home or business, it will spread and continue to grow until the problem is professionally taken care of. Mold spores can enter your home in many ways and will grow in places with a lot of moisture. If a structure has been damaged because of water, whether it’s a plumbing issue or more severe flooding, mold is likely to begin growing.

If you are wondering which mold is bad to have growing in your house the answer is simple: It’s all bad. If not immediately dealt with, mold can pose serious health risks to you and your family. Symptoms may include:

· Headaches

· Sore Throat

· Coughing

· Sneezing

· Respiratory problems

· Asthma attacks

Reactions to mold vary from person to person. Symptoms may be minor in relatively healthy people, but there are very real dangers to those who are susceptible to mold. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine linked indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory symptoms. Mold exposure was also linked to respiratory illness in otherwise healthy children.

Although there are a slew of products on the shelves of your favorite hardware store that tout mold removing magic, the truth is unless a professional is called, the problem isn’t going to go away. Archer Restoration Services, Inc. has decades of experienced in the area dealing with mold remediation, water removal and mold restoration.

Archer Restoration Inc. is truly a one-stop shop for all mold related troubles. Taking care of a mold problem has several steps. It’s much more involved than just spraying the mold and calling it a day. If mold is growing indoors, due to extensive water damage, that damage needs to be killed and dried out to keep the mold from coming back. That includes removing any lingering dampness behind walls and inside the ceilings, etc.

Whether it’s putting in new drywall or removing and replacing part of the existing structure, we will see the project through from beginning to end. Our customers don’t have to worry about calling contractors or other companies to finish the job or do part of the work, because the Archer Restoration team does it all!
