Early Detection Prevents Outbreaks in Your Texas Home
Between severe seasonal storms and the potential for high humidity, homes around Frisco are heavily susceptible to mold growth and the following damage. Property owners can sometimes save themselves from drastic consequences like structural deterioration and health concerns with routine professional inspections for mold colonies, mildew, and water damage.
Why Early Detection is Crucial
Mold inspections for Frisco homes offer the opportunity to assess the condition of your house and avoid unpleasant widespread mold infestations. Without taking steps to change it, mold spreads quickly through a residence and impacts your life in several possible ways:
-
Structural Damage: Mold uses organic materials in your house as a food source, such as wood framing, drywall, and flooring, causing them to weaken. Prolonged exposure to these growing organisms can lead to structural integrity loss.
-
Airborne Contaminants: When spores become airborne, they can find their way into spaces like the HVAC system, which connects to almost every room in your house.
-
Repair Needs: Long mold exposure times often require repairs and reconstruction because invasive removal efforts are necessary.
How Our Professionals Track Mold
Some mold development you can spot right away without looking too hard, but this does little to show you the full spectrum of potential infestation. For that, Lightspeed Restoration of Frisco utilizes specialized equipment and methods:
-
Moisture Meters: These tools measure moisture in materials like drywall and wood to identify areas that might be damp enough to support mold development.
-
Infrared Imaging: Thermal cameras can track temperature disparities in structural cavities and ceiling systems to locate damp pockets out of sight.
-
Air Quality Tests: Air is drawn from the potential active zones to determine the concentration of airborne spores – high concentrations often indicate colonies.
-
Surface Grabs: Tape or swab testing can collect samples of mold-infested surfaces to determine toxicity and type of mold, as well as more helpful information needed to develop a remediation strategy.
