Most Common Causes of Mold Growth in Central Florida
The humid climate in
Central Florida isn’t the only reason that homes and office spaces end up with mold problems. There are several other things that can cause mold growth. At Florida Fire & Flood, we have worked on a variety of mold remediation jobs in the Central Florida area, and many of those were caused by:
Leaks from Plumbing
Poor Ventilation
Roofing Leaks
Health Risks of Mold Exposure
While it might be tempting to ignore a small mold problem, it’s important that you understand the health risks. As we mentioned, some mold species are more dangerous than others. Therefore, symptoms can range from mild to severe, and they may also be more prominent in people with mold allergies or asthma. Nevertheless, you and your family should look out for the following health problems:
Coughing
Sneezing
Watery Eyes
Difficulty Breathing
Rash
Hives
How to Identify Mold in Your Home
In some cases, you and your family might start exhibiting symptoms of mold exposure before you even see the growth. This is because mold can remain hidden inside walls, ceilings, floors, and other areas that are hard to see. If left untreated, the problem will only worsen.
For that reason, Central Florida homeowners should
contact a mold remediation company for a thorough inspection. Florida Fire & Flood has access to innovative tools that allow them to identify hidden water damage and mold growth. We also use our experience to help us identify mold spores. Our experts can even gather samples to send off for a more accurate diagnosis and mold remediation plan.
The Dangers Of DIY Mold Remediation
While it might be tempting to save money with a DIY cleanup, this isn’t something that you want to mess with unless you have the proper training and tools. Since Florida Fire & Flood has more than 45 years of experience, we know how risky it can be for our customers to do a mold removal on their own.
One of the biggest risks is further exposure to mold. The average person doesn’t have access to the proper protective equipment needed to protect their skin and respiratory system during cleanup. Another risk is that homeowners may choose the wrong cleaning solution and not effectively remove the mold. They may even neglect to fix the root cause, and as a result, they will continue to battle recurring
mold growth.

Cost of Professional Mold Removal Services
There are several different Central Florida mold remediation technicians, and they all will have different prices. That’s because the cost can vary based on different factors.
Some contractors charge more for mold in hard-to-reach locations. Customers may also have to pay for reconstruction if the damage is severe enough. The cost also depends on how much mold is in the house.
For the most accurate pricing, you should call Florida Fire & Flood or request a free consultation.
Signs of a Poorly Executed Mold Remediation
Not all mold removal specialists are the same. If you hire someone without the right experience, you could quickly find yourself with more mold growth.
That’s not all.
Since remediation requires fixing the root cause of the moisture, the first sign that the job wasn’t done right may be that water has entered the home again. From there, the water could lead to more mold. You may also
struggle with mold growth if the spores are not removed from the air in the house.
