Mold Problem in Norfolk?
9/1/2021 (Permalink)
I thought I had mold at the bottom of my sink, but it wasn't my sink that had mold it was my floor and walls. As we pulled up some flooring, we could smell a funny smell, in-fact it was a sewage smell. We had a sewer drain back up in our basement and we thought we had it all cleaned, we were wrong! After pulling back some flooring we deiced to start felling our walls and noticed that the walls were damp, so we cut into the wall, and I saw the mold. Yikes!

Understanding Mold
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed, or the mold may return
- Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air, and may enter your home through windows, doors, on clothes and pets, or air conditioning and heating systems
- Mold spores thrive on moisture
- Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth
- Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent to discourage mold growth
