Mold Spores are Present in the Air all the Time

A water leak behind a sink was unseen for more than 48 hours and quickly spread into a "mold problem" in this home in Toms River, NJ.

Mold spores are present in the air all the time so it is impossible to eliminate every trace of it. It becomes more a matter of preventing the start of mold growth rather than trying to eliminate it once it starts to grow and spread. You might come across “DIY” tricks for getting rid of mold, but they almost never work. The most effective option is usually to call a professional who can:

• Locate and identify mold
• Assess the damage
• Contain the mold and keep it from spreading
• Identify and repair sources of moisture
• Provide air filtration
• Physically remove the mold
• Clean the affected area
• Develop and execute a restoration plan
