Black mold, also called toxic black mold, can be commonly found in your home's attic. Improper venting, along with water damages, such as roof leaks, pipe leaks and storms, can be the main cause of mold in your home. Mold can cause health problems in your family, including coughing, discomfort, sneezing, headaches and congestion.
We advise all home owners and business owners to contact Canada's Restoration Services if they suspect they have mold. Not all mold is visible and can be confirmed with an air quality test. An air quality test is not required on visible mold, but we highly recommend conducting air quality tests for other areas of the home to test for any mold spores that may have formed through cross-contamination. We do not perform air quality testing and utilize third party testing by an accredited air quality testing company. Home owners and business owners should steer clear of companies who perform air quality testing and mold removal services, as this does indicate a conflict of interest which may lead to deceitful results.
