Studies suggest that as many as 50 percent of Colorado Springs homes are at risk for developing mold. Not all molds are dangerous, but most indoor mold growth is and should be removed as soon as possible. Molds are typically cotton like or furry in appearance and are gray, white, or green. Even if you don't smell mold, keep in mind that the poisonous molds that grow in walls do not always have an odor.  If you do discover mold, make sure that you choose an experienced Colorado Springs mold remediation company.

Most mold remediation experts recommend that you do not attempt to clean the mold yourself, rather they recommend you hire a professional Colorado Springs mold remediation company to take care of your mold problems for you. Even if it appears that there is only a small amount of mold, it is still a good idea to receive an estimate from a mold remediation expert, since again, the majority of household mold is usually found within the walls and cleaning a small visible area without using the proper methods may actually make the problems worse.

Why is mold growing in my home?

Molds are part of the natural environment in Colorado Springs. Outdoors, molds play a part in nature by breaking down dead organic matter such as fallen leaves and dead trees, but indoors, mold growth should be avoided. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores; the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on surfaces that are wet. There are many types of mold, and none of them will grow without water or moisture.

Can mold cause health problems?

Who should do the mold cleanup in your Colorado Springs home depends on a number of factors. One consideration is the size of the mold problem. If the moldy area is less than 10 square feet (less than roughly a 3 ft. by 3 ft. patch), in most cases, you can handle the job yourself, following the guidelines below.  If there has been a lot of water damage, and/or mold growth covers more than 10 square feet, then you should contact a professional mold removal servcie.
