There are many different aspects to building a home, there is the foundation, the insulation, the materials and other very important details to building a strong home. One issues that must be addressed is mold. Improper mold prevention could lead to future health hazards as well as heavy restoration fees.

Mold is fungus that grows on any material that holds protein and ample moisture. Once these requirements are met, mold eats and continues to grow until it completely destroys the material. The grow method of  mold is similar to plants as they release thousands of microscopic spores that land on surfaces until a few find another suitable place to colonize and continue the cycle.

Since mold spores travel through the air, cross contamination is very likely in a infected home. Once mold spores make contact with the central air units within the home, mold can colonize anywhere the central air leads it. This can cause minor to major health issues as a high concentration to mold spores is unhealthy. Cross contamination is one of the worst possible scenarios a mold infestation could bring.

Mold needs one thing in particular to survive, water. Without water mold can not grow. Mold will quickly lay dormant until a new source of water is available. So to avoid mold issues one must have control of the water sources in the home as well as the humidity and condensation that occurs in the home.

With that in mind, mold can quickly cause severe damage to a home that has incurs any type of sustained water damage. Once this damage is consistent for a decent amount of time, usually the sheetrock or any material the mold has colonized must be discarded and replaced. This could be very expensive as this could be the support beams, the roof, the interior walls and other costly areas of repair.
