4 Reasons to Consider a Mold Test in Your Home

4 Reasons to Consider a Mold Test in Your Home

Anything from water damage to a leaking pipe can quickly lead to dangerous mold growth in your home, particularly if left untreated.

Mold in your home can be a serious threat to both the structure of your home and the health of all who live there, including pets. Anything from water damage to a leaking pipe can quickly lead to dangerous mold growth in your home, particularly if left untreated. Mold testing is simple when left to the professionals, and can save you the stress and costly effects of mold in your home. If you suspect that you may have mold lurking within your home, consider these four reasons to get a mold test.

Recent Flooding or Water Damage

Any recent water damage in your home is a great reason to have your home tested in order to eliminate risks that may stem from any early stages of mold growth. Because mold tends to flourish in humid, damp environments following water damage, it is especially crucial to seek help from the professionals as soon as possible to stop these issues before they continue growing in your home.

Mold Odor in Your Home

Smelling mold in your home is red flag that you may be in need of a test. Mold often carries a distinct smell that is recognizable immediately upon entering your home, and it tends to grow with moisture levels following water damage such as leaks or basement flooding. If you smell mold anywhere in your home, it is important to get a mold test as soon as possible to keep it from spreading.

Real Estate Transactions

Buying or selling a home is another good occasion to get a mold test in order to ensure that a home is healthy for purchase. Since mold is often indicative of significant issues in a home structure, it is an especially good idea to get this test beforehand to avoid any dangerous investments.

Allergy Symptoms and Health Complications

Mold will often trigger allergy-like symptoms such as sneezing, congestion, coughing, or a sore throat if a person is exposed to spores in the air. Many of these health complications are uncomfortable and can also cause serious long term effects such as respiratory complications, if left untreated.
