There continues to be a growing concern about exposure to indoor mold. The public is aware that exposure to mold can cause a variety of health problems with symptoms that include asthma, allergic reactions, and other respiratory complaints.

Molds and other biological contaminants are ubiquitous and frequently contaminate residential and commercial building materials, especially following water damage. Mold can cause structural damage and will grow on wood, paper, carpet and insulation. If not promptly and properly addressed, a property may become biologically contaminated causing substantial damage that may present both safety and health hazards.
