Not Just Surface Damage from Mold

Black Mold Damage in Jackson, NJ

We’ve spoken on our blog about the sources of mold, where it likes to grow, and the speed at which it grows.  In addition to this, it is important to note that when left for long periods of time mold can gradually destroy the surfaces they grow on.

Mold growth is usually a sign of high levels of humidity within the area. In addition to mold, a high amount of humidity can cause structural damage to your home or business and its contents as drywall begins to deteriorate or wood begins to rot (dry rot).  Conditions for mold growth involve humidity, correct temperatures, and a food source. In the case of mold on surfaces in your house, the surface is the food source. Mold grows off of your drywall, brick, grout, or wooden beams as it  slowly deteriorates that object.

Mold is never truly removed from the home or business.  Mold spores are introduced into the home or business daily by people or animals coming in and out of the home (having spores on your clothing or pets bodies).  Just by opening and shutting the doors or windows to a home or business can introduce spores into a home.  This is ok as long as the humidly in the home is in expectable range.
