It is time again that summer and the rains have started. All persons with asthma and allergies need to protect their health through the following five toxic black mold mistakes, often in the Home Inspections, Mold Inspections, inspections and tests Microbial microbial remediation.
1. This is primarily in relation to microbial growth, be aware that they affect your health especially if your asthma and allergies. We have had inspections for over 15 years and are amazed at what we see. The recent disaster is another incompetent home inspector said the homeowner that the area where the black spots on the closet wall was an old water leak that dried up. The homeowner bought the house because of this incompetent Home Inspector and the problems began as soon as the rain began. By the way, the incapacitated, the Home Inspector Roof Inspection also. We inspected the area and the roof leaks, the one bedroom, two cupboards and a bathroom that needs to be remedied, because this incompetent Home Inspector. Estimated cost of roof replacement is about $ 10,000. This is a fairly steep law in this kind of economy.
2. Failure to inspect the visible signs and traces of toxic mold infestation at regular intervals, especially if it is the summer and it rains at regular intervals. Check your house for roof leaks, plumbing leaks, water damage, musty smells or visible microbial growth and high humidity. Get a good quality and your hygrometer moisture. It should be below 55% for the Klimatechnik recommendations. We recommend our customers to less than 50%. The reason is, if he has 50%, you know, a problem begins to develop with the A /C system or is there a leak somewhere in the home. People with asthma and allergies require low humidity.
3. The assumption that only buildings drying wet surfaces or areas will be sufficient to prevent mold infestation. This is the biggest problem that people seem to misunderstand. If the growth of microorganisms is of moisture to grow, but it is dormant but not die. It waits patiently for years, high humidity or a water leak again begin to grow where it left off. It will be fast when you water. There are some mold-sensitive individuals can mold in walls, that she is ill, even if there is no moisture for them to grow. Air currents may microbial spores into other areas of the apartment or office building.
4. Bleach is ineffective to kill toxic mold on porous surfaces like building materials like drywall, wood, plasterboard, etc. Removal is the best solution, where possible. It is also not an EPA-registered fungicide. An important point to remember, just spraying the area for mold is insufficient. The damaged microbial contaminated areas and surfaces must be removed by a licensed remediation contractor who is trained to do it right.
5. The last step is an appropriate microbial tests prior to the job and final clearance testing provisions, if the job is. Avoid any microbial testing companies that offer free inspections (nothing is free, it's always a gimmick). These companies can free their inspection fee by selecting for restoration work. Remember that nothing is free. Always have the rehabilitated areas tested (at least 3 samples per area is ideal), we prefer more, because you get a better picture of the damaged area.
Finally, try the following recommendations for the prevention of mold problems in your life. There are other tips, but if you need more information, please contact us. If you suspect you or a family member with health problems due to mold, contact your doctor immediately.
