Days/weeks after the storm has passed, you might find black spots on your walls/ceilings. Should you just disregard this or should you hire someone to assess the severity of these mold spots?
What is a Mold Assessment?
A mold assessment is an evaluation of a structure completed by a licensed mold assessor to determine whether or not a structure has a mold problem.
The purpose is to detect the presence of suspected mold growth in areas of the property. The inspection will describe the microbial growth along with conditions that could contribute to microbial growth. Typically, mold thrives in dark, damp areas. Many homeowners don’t even know they have a mold problem until it becomes a serious issue.
