What Is Mold?
Most people think that mold is slimy, green discoloration found on carpeting, baseboards or even wallpaper that gradually increases in size, but found only in dirty, unkempt homes or apartments. But the truth is, mold and spores can flourish in sparkling clean environments as well. Mold can be present in any room, nook or cranny, and destroys indiscriminately. Any time mold is discovered, it should be treated immediately. Whether toxic or mildly allergenic, whether dead or alive, mold can have harmful effects on people and their property.  [more on What Is Mold?]

Why Inspect For Mold?
There are numerous reasons to inspect your property for mold. First of all, mold is everywhere. There is no escaping it. Though mold is not problematic by default, when indoor mold exceeds levels typically found outdoors, a number of serious problems can occur. Whether your house was inspected for mold before you moved in, or had an inspection less than one year ago, you should be aware that mold can begin at any time and anywhere, no matter how clean you keep your casa. If you haven't had an inspection within the last 18 months, now might be the perfect time to have a professional mold inspection even if there are no visible signs.

Health Issues:
This should be the number one concern of anyone who has a potential mold problem and the primary reason for having a mold inspection. Every day we seem to learn more about mold and its health ramifications. Some people experience extreme reactions to mold, while others can live in moldy environments for years while others Every individual has a different sensitivity to mold and longer term exposure to mold contamination can lead to permanent chronic health respirator issues. 

There are hundreds of thousands of mold types. Approximately 40 known variations of mold are common to indoor environments, and they cause a myriad of health risks, such as: allergy attacks, arthritic aching, asthma, bloody nose, bronchitis, coughing, chronic head-aches, depression, dizziness, fatigue, hearing, loss of memory, nausea, pneumonia, restlessness, runny nose, sight, sinus congestion, skin itch, skin rashes, sneezing, trouble breathing, watery eyes, stiffness, balance or equilibrium loss. If you believe you or your loved ones are experiencing these symptoms and you're concerned about mold, call an AMI Certified Mold Inspector now.

Property Damage:
Mold infestations appear in residential, commercial, industrial, occupational, schools, hospitals and other venues. It seems, however, that there are higher reported incidences of mold infestations in residential homes. A single event of water intrusion and/or a humidity level above 50% in any building or home (old or new construction) will colonize mold from spores (old or new) within 24-48 hours causing immediate cosmetic damages. When left unattended, mold colonization will cause major structural damage as well. In places like Southern California where the average price of a home is over $500,000, the cost of even a small remediation job can be financially devastating. A timely inspection from an AMI Certified Mold Inspector can head off big problems and save thousands of dollars.

Mold Litigation:
Missouri may be the "Show Me State", but California is the "Sue Me State". Mold-related litigations have skyrocketed upwards of 300% since 1999. Whether you're the buyer, the seller or a realtor in a real estate transaction, you better make sure the property has a mold inspection. Several realtors in San Diego County refuse to even list or sell properties without a mold inspection from AMI. We even get calls from tradesmen, i.e. plumbers, remodelers, roofers, etc., who are being sued months after providing services for failing to mention mold problems they saw in the course of their work. Almost everyone in the construction trades at some time or another come across a mold problem. Many innocently disregard the condition or misunderstand the seriousness of its presence to their own health or future effects it can have to others if it is unattended - just one more reason to have a mold inspection.
