Fungus Removal in Seattle

Let's just start off by saying that mold is fungus, which makes up 25% of the earth's bio mass, and is considered ubiquitous or omnipresent - it's everywhere. So, when we talk about removing mold, we must realize that it can never be totally removed or eliminated.

How to Remove Fungus in your Home?

Mold Spores are everywhere - Mold Solutions NWLet’s just start off by saying that mold is fungus, which makes up 25% of the earth’s bio mass, and is considered ubiquitous or omnipresent –  it’s everywhere.

So, when we talk about removing mold, we must realize that it can never be totally removed or eliminated. It’s just not possible to have a total absence of mold spores.

There are no standards or guidelines when it comes to fungal samples, there are no levels which are considered typical or permissible.

But if you can see or smell mold growing in your home or business, it is unacceptable…it presents a potential health risk to people who consistently breathe the air.

Mold Should be Professionally Remediated

Many people think they can remove mold themselves, and not hire a professional, but the truth is…they can’t.

If the mold is on a non-porous surface such as glass or tile, it is generally easily removed.

But, if it is found growing in walls, ceilings or carpets, the only way it can be remediated properly is by hiring a professional who can assess the degree of contamination and infestation. Then, using the correct tools and products, they will either treat, or in some cases where treatment is ineffective, they will remove the item or the part of it that is untreatable.

In the future

Unfortunately, bringing professionals in to do the job doesn’t insure that you won’t have a mold problem sometime in the future.

Mold Spores are always in the air - Mold Solutions NWWhenever the situation is right (a warm, moist environment), mold will begin to grow again. Remember, it’s spores are in the air, they’re always in the air.

The best thing you can do to keep your mold spore concentration levels down is to keep excess moisture in your home at a minimum.

  • Fix leaks
  • Run ventilation fans
  • Make sure your attic and crawl space are well ventilated
  • Handle water damage quickly and thoroughly

Water is the problem and mold is the symptom.

If you are in the Seattle Puget Sound area, Bellevue, Everett, or Tacoma, give me a call for a free assessment…so you can breathe easy!

Mold Solutions is a full service mold solutions provider, who can remove the threats to your health and safety caused by mold.

How To Get Rid Of Mold On Window Sill From Condensation

During the winter season we experience not only a chill, but also dampness in the air.

With the cold air outside and the warm air inside, with our homes closed up tighter, and our furnaces running, many of us are plagued by foggy windows or even worse, wet windows, better described as condensation.

Mold Spores In Our Homes, The Air & On Our Clothes

As a living organism, mold needs a way to reproduce. That is where spores some in.

Spores are the reproduction method for fungus and algae. Since mold is a fungus, its means of reproduction is through spores, which are asexual, and don’t need to combine with anything in order to reproduce. Spores are much like seeds, but are much quicker and have a higher reproduction rate.

I was in a panic when I found out that mold in the roof was going to sideline the sale on my house. I called a bunch of mold companies to get something moving to fix it fast, and a few were flaky and others were just expensive. Mold Solutions NW, on the other had, was there when they said they would be, offered a bid that was thousands less than others, and the man they sent out Peter Kakoczky, was great to work with offering good advice and helping me keep my head during a difficult time. It wasn't fun having to do the work that needed to be done, but he actually helped me get the right information to intelligently bid what work the roofers had to do in addition to providing the services he did. I really appreciated his knowledge and common sense.

This is a great and honest company. We have a musty basement that appears to be due to several factors. Peter came to our house to help find the issue and he was able to tell us what we need to do to help eliminate the problem. We didn't have one deciding problem causing the musty smell but really just several things to take care of. I highly recommend Mold Solutions NW if you at least would like someone to help look into your mold or must problem.

Peter was amazing to work with. He went above and beyond in scheduling a consult promptly. He quickly assured me that my "mold disaster" was not as awful as I expected and he offered recommendations on how to fix the problem without paying a fortune. If you're looking for someone who is honest, prompt, and professional, you have found the right place! Thanks Peter!

Peggy came out to my home on Mercer Island to perform a mold assessment. She was on time. She wore booties. She listened to my problem and then got down to the business of checking out the problem area. Peggy provided her service with a thoughtful customer service flair that is lost on big business these days. I will mention her name and business now any time someone even mentions mold.

Excellent fast service, very complete inspection and good advise. They are not a company that wants to scare you into expensive solutions … infact the inspector only recommended a ventilation fan and dehumidifier. If you are looking for an honest and complete inspection you have found it.

Peggy and Melody met us all the way in Spanaway when they were located in the North Bend area. There was growth at a Spanaway home behind the walls of two boy’s rooms. Mold Solutions Northwest removed growth in the two room and made it a healthier environment for the boys. They were very professional and considerate with the homeowner. Growth is a serious issue due to its prevalence, cost of removal, and health impacts. Thanks again Peggy and Melody for your support!!

I want to thank you for all of your hard hard work & quickness. (I am sure that’s not a word) in which you arrived & completed the job. I am sorry but I only remember Mel and Cody’s name. There was a third young man as well. They were, all three, remarkable. Thank you, thank you. A. Sharpe

Thanks Peggy for you and your team’s help in getting our jobs cleaned up and ready for us. Everyone is easy to work with and I appreciated their hard work. Thanks again.

Dear Peggy, You are a lifesaver. If it wasn’t for you and your company, my buyer would not have been able to purchase his home. Your reasonable approach and aggressive fee structure made it possible for my buyer to do the work ahead of closing- and guess what- we closed today!!!! I appreciate everything you and your team did- you went way above and beyond and I won’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone who asks.
L. BenderClient
