Mositure and Mold

11/20/2015 (Permalink)

Moisture issue left unaddressed in a home in The Hideout (Hamlin, Pa.) caused this mold problem.

Moisture is one necessary element for mold infestation. This summer home in Hamlin, Wayne County was left unattended without a proper working dehumidifier causing this bio-hazard situation. Mold spores can begin to grow as little as 48 hrs once the relative humidity in the structure climbs past 60%. if your home has a moisture issue, a dehumidifier can help remedy the problem.

Mold growth to this extreme is a health hazard and a dangerous situation. The homeowners cannot sell it as planned all because it was not attended to when left for the year. The poor real estate agent went have an open house and immediately called SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge since we follow IICRC standards in mold remediation jobs.
