Home & Crawl Space Mold Removal in Charlotte, Gastonia, & Nearby Cities
Mold is especially prone to grow in a home’s crawl space. If there are any water leakages, cracks, or areas for water to enter your crawl space (which most home's crawls have these openings) then there’s a much higher chance that mold will develop over time. In crawl spaces, moisture is typically higher due to the area not being properly conditioned. High moisture increases the humidity, and humid environments can be the perfect breeding ground for mold growth. Much of the air that we breathe in our homes can come from the crawl space, so it is important to make sure that your crawl space stays clean, dry, and healthy.
Mold or Growth in Air Ducts & Vents
If you have mold, mildew, or growth in your air vents or home, it is usually an indication of a moisture problem. It is vital to remove the mold, but is equally important to fix the underlying cause of the growth, or it will more than likely quickly return. Unfortunately, duct cleaning alone will generally not fix mold issues in a home. However, We offer FREE Home Energy Audits and can find the source of the growth and offer a free, no obligation quote for solutions. Each home is different, and the source of mold can have multiple causes. Therefore, each treatment plan to remove the mold and ensure it does not return will be different. We use various removal treatments to get rid of any mold and fix the environment of the crawl space or home to ensure any type of growth is unable to form in the future.
9 Signs You May Have a Fungal, Mildew, or Mold Growth Problem Can Include:
- 1 Mold in Air Vents or Duct Work - If your home has mold, the debris that builds up in your duct work can often create an ideal environment for mold and other biological growth to continue to grow. The debris is providing them the food source they need to survive. Mold or biological growth can be very dangerous if you are breathing it consistently. It can make someone very sick, and can also aggravate or intensify other health issues. If you happen to notice any growth in or around your vents, it might be time to get them cleaned and sanitized.
- 2 Unusual Odors or Musty Smells – If there are any odors that you can not find the source,this could be the result of hidden biological growth. Mold could be growing inside your crawl space, air ducts, or attic etc. These are places that you rarly see or check, but the air from these areas circulate your home!
