Many of the homes and businesses that we perform mold remediation work on in the Orange, CT area have mold due to a pipe or appliance leak that goes unnoticed or a water damage event that was not professionally cleaned up. It doesn't take long- as little as 48 hours- for mold to become a big problem. If you notice musty smells, suspicious black stains on your walls or are experiencing an unexplained illness, you may be asking yourself whether mold is the cause.
If you suspect that you have mold in your home or business, give our office a call to schedule an inspection. Our specialists have the training, equipment and experience to best determine whether mold remediation is necessary. While you are waiting for your inspection, we have some tips that you can follow to reduce your exposure to mold any further.
