Bathroom Mold Removal
Bathroom Mold Removal in Brockton & New Bedford, MA
The bathroom is the perfect place for mold issues to start.
The bathroom is the room in your home that accumulates the most moisture which makes it the area where mold is most likely to thrive. More often than not, your bathroom isn’t designed to adequately keep humidity and moisture levels low enough to stop mold. Therefore, your bathroom is likely the origin point for many of your mold issues.
Mold showing in your bathroom could be a symptom of a much bigger problem.
Even if you can’t see mold, it is already visible in your home! Only in the third stage of development does mold become visible. However, mold still produces spores and mycotoxins in its first two stages. Mold spores move around your home, often through your HVAC systems, waiting to land somewhere with good moisture levels to reproduce and spread throughout the home.

Symptoms can include sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. Allergenic molds such as black mold are the most common type to grow in the bathroom. However, no matter the type of mold present, the CDC recommends treating all molds with the same consideration and having them removed as quickly as possible.
