How to look for signs you have mold in your RI home.

10/30/2020 (Permalink)

If your Rhode Island home recently had water damage, and you didn’t have your water damage issue fixed, it only takes 24 to 48 hours for mold to germinate and grow. When mold is formed it will not only affect your home but may also affect your health. Though you may be wondering how you can tell if you have mold on your walls, ceiling, floor, or wood. Here are a few ways you can figure out if you have mold in your home:

  1. Smelling a mold odor
  2. Condensation
    moisture build-up will be on glass, windows, or pipes.
  3. Health effects
    some types of mold are toxic and cause more serious effects
  4. Spotting and fur on walls
  5. Old water damage/leakage
