Signs You May Have a Mold Problem

Mold often grows in hidden areas, making it hard to detect until it becomes a significant problem. If you notice specific changes in your property, it is important to investigate the cause, as it may be related to mold.

• Musty Odors: A persistent, damp, or earthy smell is one of the most common indicators of mold, even if you cannot see it. This odor is caused by compounds released by the mold.
• Visible Growth: Mold can appear in various colors (black, green, white, orange) and textures. It is often found in damp areas like bathrooms, basements, kitchens, and around window sills.
• Water Damage Signs: Any sign of water intrusion, such as water stains, discoloration on walls or ceilings, bubbling paint, or peeling wallpaper, indicates a moisture source that mold needs to grow.
• Health Symptoms: If occupants experience unexplained allergic reactions, such as sneezing, runny nose, eye irritation, or respiratory issues that improve when they leave the building, it could be a reaction to mold spores.
• Condensation: Frequent condensation on windows, pipes, or walls is a sign of high humidity, which creates the ideal environment for mold to thrive.

If you recognize any of these signs, especially after a water leak or flood, it is essential to have the area professionally inspected. Addressing the moisture source is the first step in solving the mold issue.

Our Mold Remediation Process

At ECOS, we follow a proven, professional process to safely remediate mold. Our IICRC-certified technicians are equipped to handle contamination and prevent cross-contamination, ensuring the health of your property.

• Inspection and Assessment: We begin by identifying the mold and the moisture source causing it. Our team assesses the extent of the damage to create a specific remediation plan.
• Containment: We use advanced containment methods, such as plastic sheeting and negative air pressure, to isolate the affected area. This critical step prevents mold spores from spreading to other parts of your property during cleanup.
• Affected Material Removal: Porous materials that are heavily contaminated, such as drywall or carpet, are carefully removed, bagged, and disposed of according to industry guidelines.
• Cleaning and Disinfection: All non-porous materials and structures are cleaned with specialized agents. We also use HEPA vacuums to capture microscopic spores from the air and surfaces.
• Restoration: As a licensed general contractor, our team can complete the restoration. We repair the moisture source and then handle any reconstruction needed, such as replacing drywall or painting.

Our goal is not just to remove the mold, but also to address the cause, helping to ensure it does not return.

Why DIY Mold Cleaning Is Not Effective

Simply spraying bleach on visible mold does not solve the problem. Bleach may whiten the surface, but it often fails to kill the mold's root system, especially on porous materials like drywall or wood, allowing it to grow back quickly.

The biggest risk of DIY cleanup is disturbance. Scrubbing dry mold can release millions of spores into the air, spreading the contamination to new areas and creating a significant inhalation hazard. Without proper containment, you can make the problem much worse.

Professionals have the training to identify the hidden moisture source. They use specialized HEPA filtration and remediation equipment to ensure all mold and spores are removed safely. This process protects both your property and your health.
