Identifying Signs of Mold in Your Home

Is your home under attack by that unwelcome guest that no one wants to deal with? It can be difficult to track down if your home actually does have mold. This fungus tends to enjoy living in cold, dark and damp areas, but they especially like to grow in areas that have lots of moisture and warmth. At Home Services Restoration, LLC, we'll provide you with 3 signs to be on the lookout for in order to avoid this nightmare situation.

• Blistering Paint -   
  It's tough to detect where mold is hiding. But, a clear visual sign that your home may have mold is if you notice blistering paint on your walls. This means that behind that paint their is probably a lot of moisture and allows for mold to grown and for your paint to blister. Contact our Great Mills mold restoration team for the help you need.
• Strange Odor -   
  A big indicator that your home may have mold is the smell. Mold has a very recognizable musty and earthy smell that comes with it. This unpleasant smell may be the only warning you get that there is a problem with mold in your home. Make sure to call us and our experienced Great Mills mold restoration technicians to come and inspect your property.
• Severe Allergies While At Home-   
  If you notice that you or some of your household only experience severe allergies when in your home, but they clear up when you leave, this could be an indicator that your home has mold. Many people are allergic to mold and it only takes a small amount to trigger a big allergic reaction.
• Water Leaks -   
  A good clue that you may have mold in your home is after a water leak or flooding. Whenever water has been flowing throughout your home, office, or commercial property, you can expect that mold is going to find a place to grow. It's important to contact a Great Mills mold restoration team to come and inspect your property after a water leak or flooding event.
• Visual Spots Or Stains -   
  An obvious sign of mold is visual spots or stains on your floor, walls or ceilings. Anything that has been exposed to moisture and doesn't have a chance to dry, can be a breeding ground for mold.

The Serious Risks of Mold Growth

Mold grows in moist, humid environments. While mold is often found after water damage has occurred and been left untreated, floods or other serious water damage events are not necessary for mold growth. If you have a bathroom with poor ventilation or extensive humidity in your home, you may find mold and mildew growth. Molds can be very irritating and aggravating to those with respiratory conditions, and some strains can cause serious health problems.

Common types of mold found in homes include:

Many customers ask us about “black mold.” This type of mold is the Stachybotrys strain and can be very dangerous. It can cause severe health problems, including respiratory issues. However, this is not the only mold strain that can cause health problems, and if you suspect you have a mold problem, you should call us and schedule an inspection.
