At the time of the renovation of my club the subcontractors identified mold! I was encouraged by my father to reach out to Catstrong. It's a very good thing I did! With the constrained time I have within my week, Catstrong worked with me to be there at any time I was in need of them and ensured that mold would not be a long term issue.

Mold spores are a big problem for homeowners. It can grow anywhere in the house which has a plumbing leak, poor ventilation, and high humidity. If left for quite a while, mold spores will eventually spread to different areas and damage house structures. Not only are molds a danger to your house, they also pose health risks for all occupants.

When you notice the presence of molds, you already need to make a move before things get worse for your house and your family.

How Do I Get My House Tested For Mold?

There are several ways to get your house tested for mold:

  • Multiple mold tests. There are three types of mold tests: air testing, surface testing, and bulk testing. The amount of mold spores can change from time to time so it is better to test different parts of your home.

  • Professional mold testing. The best way to get your house tested for molds is to avail the services of professional mold inspectors. Hiring experts will definitely give you more accurate results.

  • Size of the area affected by mold

  • Cause of mold

  • Type of mold removal procedure

There is no exact number for mold removal cost but for a small, contained area such as crawlspaces, it will cost about $500. But for larger areas, it usually costs $2,000 and above.

When several areas of the house are badly damaged, it will need complicated mold removal procedures which might cost around $15,000 to $20,000. This already includes any repairs or replacements that will be needed after the mold removal.

How Much Does A Mold Inspection Cost?

The cost of having a mold inspection in your house depends on the following factors:

  • Size of the area to be tested

Mold inspections can cost between $300 to $400 for small and medium-sized houses, while it can cost between $700 to $900 for larger houses.

If there is already visible mold growth, it will lower the costs unlike when inspections are done in the drywall.

How Do You Know If You Have A Mold Problem?

To know if your house is having a mold problem, check out the following signs:

  • There is a strange smell.The presence of mold cannot be seen at all times and one of the signs that it is present is by its musty smell.

  • Mold growths.Homeowners usually ignore small mold growths which should be removed as soon as possible. Always be on the lookout for furry, dark growths, or black, green, and specks.

  • Allergic reactions.A house with mold might trigger allergic reactions to its inhabitants such as watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, and nasal congestion.

  • Paint bubbling, cracking, or peeling.Molds are caused by moisture and if you notice your paint bubbling, cracking, or peeling, it means that there is moisture inside the walls. Moisture can be a result of humidity or a plumbing leak.

  • Soft spots in the hardwood floor.Similar to paint, if a hardwood floor feels squishy, there is a chance that there is moisture underneath. If it goes unnoticed, the flooring will rot and spread.

Is Mold Covered By Homeowners Insurance?

Mold is covered by your homeowners insurance provided that the mold growth is caused by a “covered peril”. These are some examples of a covered peril:

  • Sudden or accidental damages e.g. burst pipes

  • Fire or lightning

  • Theft

  • Vandalism or malicious mischief

  • Damaged caused by vehicles

  • Weight of ice or snow

  • Damage from electrical currents

  • Frozen or overflowing of water from heating, air conditioners, or sprinkler systems

Mold is not covered by homeowners insurance if it is caused by a preventable leak, flood, or high humidity. However, if you have a flood insurance policy, mold is part of its coverage.

How Do You Know If Mold Is Behind Drywall?

Water damage is the main cause of mold growth. Busted pipes will leak into the drywall and trap moisture in it which will cause mold growth especially if not treated early. If left untreated, the damage will likely spread to a greater part of the house. It will also damage the air quality inside the home and will result to health risks for the occupants.

Here are some things you need to look out when determining if there is mold behind the drywall:

  • Water stains. A great way to spot mold growth is to look for water stains, especially if there is a plumbing leak. Sometimes, these water stains are damp because of moisture and can be yellow or brown in color.

  • Paint discoloration. If you notice that there areas in your wall which are discolored, usually changing to black, brown, grey, or green, there is a high chance that there is mold behind the walls.

  • Surface deterioration. If the wall paint is peeling, cracking, or bubbling, there might be mold growth due to the moisture inside the walls.

  • Musty smell. Since mold growths are not spotted easily, the most common sign of it is its odor.
