Whenever water damage or excess moisture or humidity occurs, harmful (and even toxic) mold can quickly follow. Not only can it cause serious property damage and a musty or earthy odor, but it can be detrimental to the inhabitants’ health. Mold spores are aerodynamic and can quickly spread and grow on surfaces and objects throughout the property. It thrives in dark and moist areas such as bathrooms, basements, crawlspaces and attics.
At the first sight or smell of mold, call a professional for mold air quality testing and remediation services to cleanup existing mold and prevent further mold growth. At Water Damage Drying Services, we provide mold remediation for homes and businesses in Norwich, CT.

According to the Bob Vila team, Water Damage Drying Services’s “mold inspection and removal service has a widely accessible service area, high customer satisfaction rating, and in-depth customer education and resources.”
The first step in remediating mold is performing air quality testing.

The main causes of mold growth are water damage and excessive moisture or humidity. Mold can easily spread through the property, and if not treated, can cause severe property damage and health effects like itchy eyes, skin rashes, coughing and wheezing, and respiratory concerns.
