Few things can present such a clear and present danger in any home or business quite like mold. Mold is the single largest problem associated with water damage, appearing within a couple of days following a leak or flood, growing quickly, and becoming nearly impossible to successfully remediate. Like water damage, mold should be dealt with promptly, as soon as it is discovered, since the problem will not get better on its own and can present a threat to the very health and well-being of your family and pets.

We will remove the mold, treat the affected area, and your home will be safe for habitation once again.
Let’s be clear…mold is a perfectly natural occurrence, and found outdoors, in nature, it is perfectly harmless. Mold basically keeps the environment clean, breaking down dead organic matter and generally acting as nature's recycling center. We run across mold every day, and we may even inhale mold spores, and there are no problems. When does mold become a problem, then?
Most homes have some mold, usually found in the kitchen or bathrooms. These growths are almost always quite small and usually harmless. They are also easily eliminated using commercially available mold removal agents from your local market. Other mold growths can be a more serious matter, namely those that have been allowed to grow unnoticed in your basement or crawlspace over the course of several months. These molds can be well established, and can be spread through something as simple as a touch, releasing hundreds of thousands of mold spores into the air.
Mold appears as a greenish black, fuzzy growth on walls, floors, pipes, etc., and is usually accompanied by an unpleasant, acrid odor. If you are lucky, that is where the mold problem ends, being unattractive and smelly. Unfortunately, some molds can threaten your health if not properly dealt with. Some species of mold and mildew may trigger everything from slight allergic reactions, watery eyes, and skin irritation, to more serious problems such as respiratory infections and neurological problems. It is always recommended that you err on the side of caution and deal with mold whenever and wherever you find it.
Many people spend a lot of money having their homes tested for mold when it really isn’t necessary. As we said, mold has a certain appearance and a very identifiable odor. If you suspect that your home has mold, in all likelihood it does. Beyond Restoration knows where to look for mold in your home, as well as what to do with it when we find it. Our mold removal techniques are state of the art, and we utilize a twofold approach. We get rid of the mold, and then we treat the cause of the mold in order to prevent the problem from returning. This may include repairing water leaks, or damage from flooding, or it may be something as simple as using dehumidifiers to bring down the level of relative humidity in the home.
