Fire, Flood, & Water Damage Restoration
Mould Problems
 
If your home or other real estate suffers a fire, flood, or other water damage, and if any of your home or building's materials have been soaked wet for more than 24 hours, mould can, and usually does, begin growing. After just 48 hours of wetness, the deadly toxic black mould Stachybotrys can begin growing in the damaged areas.
         

After a fire, flood, or other water damage, you need to dry the damaged area immediately and completely to minimize the possibilities of mould growth. You should then do mould tests in the affected areas. For complete testing help, please visit: Mould Testing.
