Water seems so harmless until a home is hit with water damage. A small kitchen fire, an open window during a heavy rainstorm, or a single broken pipe in a bathroom all seem like problems that are easy to correct. The water is wiped away, any broken or heavily damaged items are removed, and life goes back to normal. Of course, it does not always work out that way. In many homes, it can seem as if the water is gone even when the moisture still lurks in hidden areas.
Every Mold Removal Service in Alexandria VA has had customers with the same type of experience. A month or two after a small mishap they suddenly begin to notice a musty smell. They look for the problem, spray some air freshener, and have the carpet shampooed. The smell remains despite their best efforts to eliminate it. Eventually, they contact a restoration company for assistance and the mold is discovered.
In many instances, the problem is within the pages of books on a bookcase and under carpeting and in corners where the dampness was never thoroughly removed. It is behind cabinets, inside walls, and growing behind wallpaper. It was beginning to develop and spread within 24 hours of the initial problem but, because it was in a dark or hidden area, it could not be seen. Left untreated, it would eventually become visible but, by that point, it could already be damaging the health of people in the home. Chronic headaches, allergy problems, and respiratory infections may already be pointing to a mold problem without people even realizing that is the cause.
