We are here to help return your property to normal after water damage. Any water intrusion in your property can cause significant damage. Water intrusion can come from flooding, pipe leaks, sewage spills, bathtub overflows or many other sources. While the water itself damages building materials the health concerns arise with the mold that can develop with in 24 to 72 hours of water intrusion. There is always a certain amount of mold in our living environment. However, water can cause significant amounts of mold that can be very harmful to your health. For information on mold and its potential effects on your health visit the EPA website.
Molds have the potential to cause health problems. Molds produce allergens (substances that can cause allergic reactions) and irritants. Inhaling or touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
