If you’re planning on remodeling your home or building, you need to quite take a few things into consideration. It can get overwhelming to plan it out, and one the most overlooked aspects of a remodel is the fact that you absolutely must test for mold before starting any work.
At ProCare Restoration, we’ve seen customers time and time again who remodeled their homes only to have the project halted by the discovery of a mold infestation. Or worse still, they’ve gone ahead and remodeled over the mold infestation, only to have it gradually destroy all the work they did.
People often make the mistake of thinking that all mold is dark and very visible, when in fact, invisible mold and mold spores are everywhere. That’s why it’s essential to test for mold before remodeling your home.
Many contractors will stop working altogether when they find mold, insisting that it be professionally removed before they continue. At this point, homeowners tend to do one of two things. They either hire IICRC certified professionals for a mold remediation or they attempt to remove it themselves. We recommend doing the former.
Mold is tricky to remove and you can actually make the problem worse if you don’t know what you’re doing. But never fear! ProCare Restoration offers professional mold testing and mold remediation to give you peace of mind about your investment in a remodeling project. Schedule your mold test today!
