Signs You Need Mold Remediation

Mold is among the most common problems plaguing homeowners. But when is mold growth a minor issue instead of a situation quickly spiraling out of control? Here are some clear-cut signs that you should call a professional for mold remediation.

Visible Mold

The first and most obvious sign is seeing visible mold. You won’t always see a lot, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t more lurking beneath the surface. Mold growth is notorious for hiding among walls and within insulation. So if there’s enough visible mold for you to even consider mold remediation, you’re better off calling the experts.

A Musty Smell

Most people are familiar with that damp and off-putting odor usually reserved for basements and crawl spaces. The smell is more often than not a sign of mold growth, and it’s concerning no matter where in your home you notice it. The mold might be hiding in plain sight, but the nose knows — and it’s telling you to call for professional mold remediation.

Increased Allergy Symptoms

If you’ve been sneezing, coughing, or wheezing more often than usual, it could be due to mold in your home. These symptoms aren’t always linked to mold exposure. But if you don’t have another explanation, it’s worth discussing the possibility with mold control experts so you can use your kitchen without your eyes watering.

High Humidity

Do you often feel like your home is too humid? While this isn’t necessarily a sign of mold growth, it does mean you’re in the perfect environment to facilitate it. This means that if you’re experiencing any of the above signs and also noticing high humidity in your home, that’s a major red flag. Moisture is generally an issue; if your home has a history of moisture issues, it’s much more susceptible to mold.
