To give you a better understanding of what mold inspections should and need to include, here are important factors to consider for mold inspections. If a specific water problem resulted in mold growth in a specific area, that doesn't necessarily mean you need a mold inspection. For example, if a roof leak has resulted in moldy ceiling tiles, then simply fixing the roof leak and replacing the ceiling tiles may be all that is necessary.

When a fire damages your home or property, what most people don't realize is the level of intensity of smoke damage.

Whether smoke damage occurred as a result of a cooking masterpiece gone awry or faulty electrical work, removing smoke particulates from walls, furniture, garments and air ducts is essential in eliminating odor - once and for all.
