However, few people realize that:
That patch of mold you see growing under the sink isn’t what affects your health and comfort. That visible mold is a symptom of a bigger problem.
Mold spores and by-products hang in the air all around you – you breathe it in, swallow it, and even take it in through the eyes.
That is what affects you!
Nobody knows better than us how damaging mold can be to human health and to ones home or business.
That is why we at Pure Maintenance dedicate ourselves to going beyond the boundaries of conventional mold remediation.
We are committed to reducing all the mold in your space to the lowest possible levels – not just hiding what you can see of it!
We achieve this using world-class technology and an unparalleled, patented process that treats both the surfaces and the air throughout your space, effectively eliminating the mold and mold by-products that affect human health.
The Most Common Misconceptions About Mold
1. Bleach Kills Mold
Bleach does not kill mold, in fact, it aids in diminishing its visibility by transforming its color from dark to light. The more inconspicuous it becomes the more challenging it is to treat.
2. You have to see mold to have a mold problem.
If you have water damage, an old home, or high humidity there is a higher chance of mold existing in your space without it being visible. Visible mold is just a symptom of a bigger problem, and if you are experiencing mold-related symptoms it is likely in the air around you.
3. Cleaning the mold will solve the mold problem
As mentioned above, cleaning the mold only removes what you can see. If you don’t address the cause of the mold it will come back.
4. Mildew isn’t mold
Mildew is in fact mold. See our blog here for more information.
5. Demolition is necessary when you find mold.
Sometimes this is true, but it is not a rule of thumb. Most often you can solve your mold problem without expensive demolition.
