Mold is a serious problem that can cause long-term issues for your home and your health. If you have mold damage in your home, reach out to a professional for mold removal. In Knoxville, TN, turn to Air and Mold Specialist for mold remediation services.

Why Is Mold Dangerous?

Mold is more than just unsightly. Many people are allergic to mold, so the presence of mold in the home causes respiratory issues such as sneezing, coughing, and congestion. Mold can also cause headaches, and prolonged exposure can be dangerous for anyone who is immunocompromised.

Mold can also damage your home over time. Mold causes discoloration on carpet, walls, and floors, and can lead to a musty or stinky odor in the house, making your home unpleasant to be in.

How Is Mold Removed?

When you call the professionals at Air and Mold Specialist for mold removal, we will start with an inspection to find the source of the mold and see how far it has spread.

Once we know the extent of the problem, we will seal off the area to prevent mold from spreading further. Mold removal is a complicated process because mold does not like to be disturbed. By sealing the area, we prevent mold spores from traveling to uncontaminated areas of your home. All of our equipment is EPA-approved to prevent the spread of mold.

Then, we will remove all contaminated materials. These may include carpeting, drywall, furniture, wallpaper, insulation, or wood flooring. We will also find the source of the mold problem, such as a hidden plumbing leak, so that it can be fixed as well, reducing future issues.

In addition to removing contaminated materials, Air and Mold Specialist offers duct cleaning services to ensure that mold can’t return to your house through your air conditioner.
