Getting to Work
What can you do to keep mold out of your home and from affecting your home’s sale value? Here are some things to do when mold spores are infiltrating your bottom line:
1. Don’t wait! Remediate–or in this instance, call a mold inspection and remediation crew you can trust. Stern Mold’s NYC mold removal team is standing by to help!
2. Be observant. It pays off in the long term. Seek out areas where mold flourishes. Basements, laundry areas, water heaters, bathrooms, ceilings and areas where water sits awhile are all prime mold spore growth areas.
3. Repair water-damaged areas. If you know where a leak is, get to it quickly. Damp materials lead to a mold paradise. If you get to a leak in time you may be able to prevent mold from becoming an expensive headache later on.
4. Be a good note taker. Your efforts to document repairs can show prospective buyers that you’ve done the work so you don’t have to fork out extra cash if costly mold surprises pop up in the future.
