Black mold is greenish-black in color with a spotty appearance. It can, however, look brown or gray. Whereas many types of mold are odorless, black mold has a dank, earthy smell.
The places most prone to mold and especially black molds are the kitchen and the bathroom as this is where there is a lot of water usage, hence dampness may occur. Bathroom mold removal may be especially tough and one has to call a professional mold remover. This is because most molds in the bathroom grow behind tiles and dry walls due to leaks in the plumbing. When you find mold in your bathroom it's imperative to contact a mold remediation team as soon as possible. Mold left unattended is harmful to your health; it can cause allergies and respiratory problems.
At Tulip Carpet Cleaning of Hempstead, we put several factors into consideration when preparing our mold remediation plan. These factors include:
Mold will grow on anything, whether it's furniture, curtains, cabinets, and walls. The location of the mold is a key determinant of how one goes about the removal of the mold. When mold is on curtains or clothes, it is easy to clean out as you just put them in the washing machine for easy cleaning. When the mold is in a hard to access place like the side of the house, however, it is always important to contact a professional mold remediation team. Trying to remove mold on your own can be very harmful to your health. Trying to remove it will expose you and your household to respiratory problems when you breathe in the mold spores.
However, mold will not always be in easy-to-find places. It might grow and eat away at your organic surfaces before you find it. When this mold gets behind dry or under cabinets, it can do great damage. This mold will require a lot more time to remove as it may involve removing the cabinets, the drywall, and insulation to get to the mold.
With the help of our specialists, some types of mold require minimal time and the use of simple equipment to remove. However, some molds like the black mold will need you to enlist a professional mold remover as they are dangerous and can cause respiratory problems.
When a professional mold remediation team gets to your premises and locates the mold, they will determine the method to use to remediate the mold. This method is determined by the size of the area invaded by the mold. At Tulip Carpet Cleaning of Hempstead, we make sure to apply the appropriate method for the type of mold, its location, and the size of the area invaded.
It is imperative to contact a professional mold remediation specialist when you suspect that you have a mold problem. As discussed above, there are different types of mold that you may not be able to differentiate yourself. The professional mold remediation specialist will do a mold test to determine the type of mold you have and the best mold remediation method.
