Mold Damage & Removal
While it is true that mold is all around us – living on plants, animals and other organic matter – they also provide us with antibiotics (penicillin) and some of the world’s finest cheeses. However there are “toxic” molds possibly hiding in attics, inside walls or under structures that can cause severe respiratory problems and that are linked to other health issues such as allergic reactions and food poisoning. Mold and mildew can cause serious illness if left untreated. Whether a structure has been damaged by severe weather conditions or flooding, removal of toxic mold is essential for the health and well-being of all those concerned.At Mayday Construction, we not only understand the potential dangers that come with mold contamination and the need to prevent its growth, but we also understand that prompt and swift action is required to prevent new mold growth from occurring.

If moisture is an issue, it must be dealt with first to make sure that the mold doesn’t come back after removal. If the mold is deep in a wall, ceiling or floor; tear-out and reconstruction may be necessary. Dehumidification of troubled areas (like basements) can help prevent re-infestation and unfortunately, mold leaves an odor that must also be dealt with properly. If you have any reason to be suspicious of mold – it is a good time for an inspection.
