Frequent asked questions
Is mold dangerous even if I can’t see it?
Yes, mold can grow behind walls, under floors, and in other hidden areas, releasing spores that affect indoor air quality. These spores can trigger allergies, asthma, and other health issues.
How quickly can mold spread after water damage?
Mold can start to grow within 24-48 hours after water exposure. Quick inspections and remediation are essential to prevent widespread contamination.
Does New Jersey require mold inspections during home sales?
While mold inspections aren’t required by law for every sale, New Jersey recommends them if there are signs of moisture or mold, and many real estate professionals suggest it to ensure buyer safety.
What’s the difference between mold testing and inspection?
A mold inspection locates mold growth sources, while mold testing measures mold levels and types in the air and on surfaces. Both are vital to fully assess a mold issue.
What are common signs of mold in a home?
Musty odors, visible black or green spots, recent water damage, and allergy-like symptoms indoors are signs you may have a mold problem.
Can I clean mold myself, or do I need professional help?
Small areas may be manageable, but for larger contamination or black mold, professional removal is safer. Mold Recon’s trained experts use specialized equipment to fully remove mold and prevent recurrence.
