If you suspect there may be mold in your house, there isn’t much time to waste. The symptoms of mold in your house reach beyond just damaging your sheetrock and deteriorating the wood in your attic, walls, and basement or crawlspace — mold can affect your health, too!

Misconceptions About Testing a House for Mold

If you discover mold in your home, the immediate desire is to get rid of it, but remediation can be costly and won't last if the conditions that created the mold in your Westchester County home still exist. Controlling the air leakage and humidity of your home is the solution to preventing mold growth in the future.
