Will Mold Ruin Your Dream Home Plans Like It Did for This Couple?
If you’re considering buying a home, one of the things to know before signing on the dotted line is if the home will pass inspection especially when it comes to mold.
In the case of a Carmel couple, the signs of mold were not detected until one day after closing. What an unpleasant surprise for the new homeowners.
It is a homeowners nightmare to come face to face with mold in the home. The reason, simply put, mold is unhealthy to breath. Mold spores can lead to allergies, eye irritations, asthma, and more.
With help from the NYC mold treatment specialists at Stern Mold, we’ll inspect your home for mold and let you know how we’ll treat issues with our MoldExterm system.
Just a few of the places to visually check out in your home include the area just inside the front and back door. Rain water can seep under the door creating a damp area rife with mold. Windows that aren’t properly sealed are another area where water can infiltrate and become a breeding ground.
Keep a close eye on pipes under kitchen and bathroom sinks for leaks. A slow drip can cause a lot of damage.
Provide enough space between furniture and walls for good ventilation. No air flow means trapped humidity that ultimately can lead to moldy encounters.
If you’re experiencing any of the health symptoms mentioned or encountering the “musty moldy smell,” there’s a good chance spores are present.
