If there are ongoing moisture problems in your home or building it is important to be alert for presence of visible mold, strong musty odors which may indicate mold is present, or any evidence of past moisture problems that might have caused mold growth. If you see any of the following signs below contact a certified mold testing company.

• Mold smell
• Visible mold grown
• Water leaks, water instruction or past flooding.

Mold can be found behind walls, in the basement, under carpet, in damp areas of the house, surrounding roof leaks or in area that experiences high humidity.
