Office buildings and other nonindustrial buildings may develop moisture and dampness problems from roof and window leaks, high indoor humidity, and flooding events, among other things. . This can lead to the growth of mold, fungi, and bacteria; the release of volatile organic compounds; and the breakdown of building materials. Mold is a a group of fungi that are common on wet materials.
Research studies have shown that exposures to building dampness and mold have been associated with respiratory symptoms, asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, rhinosinusitis, bronchitis, and respiratory infections. Individuals with asthma or hypersensitivity pneumonitis may be at risk for progression to more severe disease if the relationship between illness and exposure to the damp building is not recognized and exposures continue.
Building dampness and subsequent respiratory illness in some building occupants (including children) occur in mold growth on wall board in part from a lack of knowledge and understanding of the nature and severity of these problems among designers, builders, building owners, employers, and building occupants.
Building dampness problems frequently occur because of suboptimal design, construction, and commissioning (assessing the building’s construction and operation prior to occupancy) of new buildings.These problems and associated health effects can be prevented by making dampness prevention a goal during the design, construction, and commissioning phases.
Once built, buildings may also develop dampness problems from improper or insufficient maintenance or operation and weather events. The best current evidence suggests observations of dampness, water damage, mold, or mold odors are the best indicators of dampness- related health hazards, rather than microbiologic measurements.

Our Services
Air Duct Cleaning
Air duct cleaning is the thorough cleaning of various components of forced air systems that heat and cool your home. This process typically includes cleaning the supply and return ducts, registers, diffusers, system coils, condensate drain pan, fan motor, and the cabinetry that houses the system.
Mold Testing & Assessment
A mold test is a procedure used to detect the presence of mold spores in the environment, assess indoor air quality, and identify potential health risks associated with mold exposure.
Mold Treatment
Mold thrives in damp environments, so the first step is to identify and fix any sources of moisture, such as leaks, condensation, or high humidity levels. Ensure proper ventilation in areas prone to moisture, like bathrooms and kitchens.
