Do you have a mold problem in your house? Mold tends to grow in places where you’re got a moisture control problem, such as under a kitchen sink or in the bathroom where people take steamy showers daily.
Mold clean-up involves scrubbing off the mold from hard surfaces using detergent and water, and then drying it completely. Of course if there are leaks, those leaks need to be fixed. Basically, dry all items completely, and don’t let moisture/pools/puddles linger. You can use fans and dehumidifiers to dry out areas.
If you encounter items in your house that are both porous and moldy, such as ceiling tiles or carpet, they’ll have to be thrown out– you can’t “fix” them. Some people might tell you to paint or caulk moldy surfaces but this is not advisable. Paint applied over mold is just likely to peel.
There may be certain items that are moldy and you’re not sure how to properly clean them. In fact, you might be wondering whether to attempt to clean them or just throw them out. Ideally, you’ll want to talk with a company like Arko Restoration about mold remediation services. They can help you figure out your mold problem, and do professional clean-up for you.
