Why Mold Prevention Matters
Mold isn’t just unsightly — it can damage your property, trigger allergies, and pose serious health risks. That’s why we act quickly after water intrusion to remove moisture, sanitize affected areas, and ensure your environment is safe and dry.
🕒 How Fast Does Mold Grow?
Under the right conditions (humidity, warmth, and organic materials), mold spores can start to grow within 24 to 48 hours of water exposure. That’s why fast drying is critical.
