Once the source of the moisture has been identified, the next step is to clean up any existing contamination and determine if any structures have sustained damage. Property damage caused by mold can range from small spots on walls to full-scale structural damage, making it essential to accurately determine the extent of the damage … (3 comments)

What Are The  Symptoms of Mold Exposure?
​There is a great deal of media exposure concerning "Black Mold".  The most frequent references to "Black Mold" are concerning a form of Stachybotrys, Chaetomium, Memnoniella, Trichoderma and Fusarium Mold which is a common mold usually associated with wet building materials.

mold inspection the villages: The Dangers of Mold in your home living space. - 03/10/21 02:38 PM
Molds produce allergens, which are substances that can cause allergic reactions, as well as irritants and, in some cases, potentially toxic substances known as mycotoxins.  Inhaling or touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.  Allergic responses include hay fever-type symptoms, such as sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash (dermatitis).  Allergic reactions to mold are common.  They can be immediate or delayed.  Molds can also cause asthma attacks in people with asthma who are allergic to mold.  In addition, mold exposure can irritate the eyes, skin, nose, throat and lungs of both mold-allergic and non-allergic people.  … (4 comments)

mold inspection the villages: Mold Infestation at home? Respiratory problems? Allergies? - 07/09/20 07:11 AM
The very presence of mold spores is normal in the environment. However, the presence of mold growth indoors is not normal and may pose health and/or comfort risks to some exposed occupants. Mold growth requires spores (“seeds”), favorable temperatures, a food supply, and moisture. Like plants, mold grows by spreading, and the release of spores. Mold easily spreads outward under favorable conditions. However, if conditions are unfavorable for growth, mold will go dormant and release spores into the air so they can find a suitable environment for survival.
 
Moisture, nutrients, and favorable temperatures can lead to mold growth in water-damaged materials in … (0 comments)

Some sellers – often, those working without an agent – want to sell their home “as is” so they don’t have to invest money fixing it up or take on any potential liability for defects.  There is nothing wrong with buying a home “as is,” particularly if you can buy it at a favorable price, but if you are considering buying an “as is” home, you should still hire a competent home inspector to perform an inspection.  There are several reasons for this.
