Mold growth in your home is dangerous to your health. It can also be an expensive problem to remedy. The professionals at Freeman Carpet Cleaning would like to share our top mold prevention tips to protect your home.
The number one key to remember is that mold thrives in a moist environment. Moisture control is critical!
Coming home to several inches of water in your basement after a heavy rainstorm is something we all dread. And because of the unpredictable weather in Pocatello and Southeast Idaho, it’s not an unlikely scenario. It’s important to have water damage taken care of professionally as soon as possible to reduce the risk of growing mold. Mold thrives in damp environments in warm temperatures--precisely the conditions your home offers when water seeps in. Mold also requires food to live, which can be found in common building materials such as plywood, drywall, and carpets. The moment you notice any water leaks, give Freeman Carpet Cleaning a call so we can professionally treat your home for water damage. Under the right conditions, mold will begin growing within 24 hours and if left untreated, it can quickly spread and create a hazardous environment, as well as potentially damage the structure of your home or business.
