When you have mold in your home, your first reaction is to get it out, which is exactly what you need to do.
Mold can be very dangerous, not only to your health, but to the structure of your home.
The first thing you need to know is if your mold problem is in need of a mold remediation specialist, if so then you need to know how to find one who is reputable and will take all the necessary precautions to insure that the mold does not come back.
When looking for your mold remediation specialist there are few things you need to know and be sure to ask: • First are they certified with the Environmental Protection Agency? You need to know where their accreditation comes from and research it.
• Will they work with your insurance company? • How many years has the company been in service? You want certified, but you also want QUALIFIED companies to help you with your mold problem.
Look for companies that have at least 10 solid years of experience under their belt.
• Ask the company for a full report as to how they will handle your mold problem and always get a second opinion.
• What is their rating with the Better Business Bureau? Make sure they have a "B" or better and if it is a "B" find out why.
There are a ton of companies out there who claim to know how to handle mold and have no idea how to do it properly and safely in order to not contaminate the rest of your home or make it dangerous for you and your family.
Remember, mold can cause serious health risks, so don't play around when it comes to finding a true, certified, honest company to deal with.
