Mold Removal in Edmonton

As a resident of Edmonton you may be having mold in your home and wondering who could help with mold removal in Edmonton. Don’t be surprised that mold is a problem in most households in Edmonton and other cities in Canada. Mold will grow if moisture is available. Moist areas such as the bathroom and basement are particularly prone to mold infestation. There are many companies that provide mold removal services in Edmonton. Before you hire a contractor for mold removal or you undertake mold removal yourself, it is a good idea to determine if you have a mold problem and if so which type of mold is growing in your home. Most important is to determine the level of infestation since this will in turn determine the cost of mold removal. The level of mold infestation is determined by conducting a mold inspection and testing.

Mold inspection and testing in Edmonton

There are several companies that offer mold inspection and testing services in Edmonton. However, in most cases you can test the mold yourself thus saving money. While you may find many mold testing kits available at hardware stores, home supply warehouses and online we DO NOT recommend any kit that is said to give instant results. You should use the same equipment and the same labs that professional mold inspectors use. If you want to test for visible mold growth we recommend using clear scotch tape which you can easily obtain from a dollar store (that’s right…dollar store). If you would like to test for air quality in your home, then we would recommend the mold test kit used by mold professionals. If it turns out that you have a serious mold problem, you should hire a professional mold inspector to assess the extent of mold damage and provide recommendations for mold removal.

When Can You Perform Mold Removal Yourself?

Mold removal can be complicated depending on the amount of mold present. If the total area covered by mold growth in your home is less than 10 square feet, then, with proper protection you can remove the mold with ordinary household cleaning products. Disturbing massive mold infestations is risky, particularly if you are an allergy sufferer or have a weakened immune system. If you have than 10 square feet, consider hiring a mold removal company in Edmonton. If you don’t know any local mold removal company, use Google or other search engines to search for “mold removal in Edmonton” to find local companies that provide mold removal services. It’s important you get quotes from several companies and the quote should include the procedure they use to remove mold and references from their past happy clients.

Mold Growth Prevention

Large mold infestation is not only difficult and costly to fix, but it is also a serious health hazard. As they say, “prevention is better than cure”. The key to preventing mold growth is simple: moisture control. Moisture is the major course of mold growth. After mold removal you can prevent regrowth of mold by keeping the area dry. Make sure any leaks that contributed to moisture are properly fixed. If mold growth was due to high humidity, you may consider installing a dehumidifier in rooms that have poor ventilation. Whenever showering or cooking ensure the fans are on to reduce accumulation of moisture indoors. In the shower or bath, take a moment to dry the bathtub or shower after each use to reduce moisture in the air. Regularly cleaning your home will also help in preventing mold growth.
