Proactive Approach to mold control

Is Mold The Real Issue?

Mold is such a serious issue today that many insurance carriers have stopped writing new homeowners policies, citing mold litigation costs as the primary reason.

These problems occur because of the reactive approach to solving mold problems. Everyone waits until there is a visible sign of a microbial problem. People have lost their homes, careers, insurance, money and health because of household mold. This reactive approach is not working. There is a solution to the mold problems of today. Don't look at the effect of mold, but find the cause. The real culprit in all of this is moisture intrusion caused by construction defects or shortcuts and improper maintenance of our homes. We can show you how to protect your investment, and help you prevent mold before it becomes a serious problem.

Mold Technologies Goes Beyond Mold

By not being proactive and preventing mold problems, homeowners have experienced losing their homes and personal items and damage to their health. Contractors/Developers have lost their businesses and, in some cases, their reputations from litigation due to mold. Lending institutions can lose any equity they had in foreclosed homes that are too damaged to sell. Insurance companies are paying large sums for mold claims and resultant litigation. Renters and landlords find themselves involved in legal battles due to mold problems often ignored by the property owners. The rest of us bear these added costs with higher insurance rates or lack of coverage. It is time to take a proactive stance.

Right To The Source

Mold needs three basic things to thrive; moisture, a food source and a surface to grow on. We cannot control the food source or the surface. The only controllable item in the equation is moisture. Homes are designed to keep moisture out, and there are systems in place to do this. If one of these systems fails, moisture intrusion can occur. Our process evaluates your home from attic to crawlspace, inside and out, detecting system failures and issues that could lead to future system failures. Armed with the latest technology available, the trademarked Moisture Management System, specialized training and a complete understanding of moisture management, our inspectors can provide you with the tools and information you need to protect yourself and your investment.

Finding a Solution

Don't wait until there is a visible problem; the key to today's mold problem is a moisture management inspection. There will always be special occurrences such as flooding or plumbing leaks, where water intrusion is unavoidable. Our system is proactive with the ability to react as well. Our inspection can pinpoint the problem, and give clear advice on the best solutions. The other issues, which are preventable, are construction defects or shortcuts and improper home maintenance that leads to moisture intrusion problems that can remain hidden until it is too late. Our survey process, sampling methods and report will provide the client with the tools they need to maintain a healthy home. While reacting to moisture and mold problems will sometimes be necessary, the most important aspect of the survey is the ability to identify potential problems, that if taken care of today will prevent moisture damage and mold growth in the future.

Be Proactive

If every house built or sold had a Mold Technologies Moisture Management inspection, everyone would win. The homeowners win by protecting their investment and the health of their family. Builders or contractors win by having documented evidence that the home was built properly. Insurance companies win by having far fewer moisture claims. They also would see a decline in their health insurance pay outs for respiratory ailments caused by mold exposure. Be proactive and prevent unnecessary moisture and mold problems.
