From flooding to a leaky roof or faulty piping system, there are several ways water can seep into the insides of a building. Humidity from this unwanted water presence is what causes mold growth on walls and other affected areas of the building.

mold
When water gets into a building, mold can start to grow within just 48 hours. Once mold is present in the property it can easily grow and spread. If ignored for longer, mold growth can be difficult to remove.
- The microscopic nature of mold spores makes it possible for mold to float in the air.
- Moisture encourages mold spore overgrowth, where they grow rapidly, posing a potential health hazard.
- It is possible to easily identify mold growth areas from the firm, musty odor produced by mold.
- For mold rates to be reduced, indoor humidity must be maintained below 45 percent. Higher indoor humidity supports mold growth.
