WHEN WATER DAMAGE HAPPENS TIME IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE; MOLD REMEDIATION COSTS ARE DAUNTING

These are few cases of minor mishaps given enough time became costly and deadly mold remediation projects.

Seekonk, MA. :  A Customer referred this mold remediation project to us; it began as a simple pipe break in his Dad’s estate house.

We responded immediately to the call and crews arrived to find a basement a few inches under water, half the basement was finished and half was a shop area.  Things appeared normal until 3 days in to the drying process we check an exposed stud wall and it read dry but the sheet rock on the finished side was still reading extremely high for moisture content.  Made no sense?  Upon further investigation I removed base board did some cutting and found a double layered wall covered in mold.  This level of mold does not grow in three days so I contained the area and questioned the home owner.  She was panicked because her husband who spent lots of time in that room died from a mold infection of the lungs.  Years earlier they had a flood and extracting the water was done but no drying system was installed.  We processed a mold test to determine the type of mold and it was found to be the same species that caused the death of the father.
