Mold Myth Number Five

Mold Myth Number Five – A small amount of mold generally doesn’t indicate a problem

False.  If you have a small amount of mold, you may or may not have a major problem.  If the mold is adjacent to an area you can’t see, it could indicate that there is mold behind the drywall.  We can take out the drywall and look behind it to see what, if any, mold exists.  We will only remove enough drywall to see the area behind it.  Once we see the extent of the mold behind the drywall we will stop, take pictures, and communicate with you about what we see.  If there is no mold behind the drywall we will do our happy dance and then provide you with an estimate based upon the visible mold.  If there is mold behind the drywall, we will provide you with an estimate that includes mold remediation plus drywall repair.

If you have any questions or would like to have us take a look at your particular mold situation, please contact SERVPRO of Ozaukee County at 262-242-8888.
