If your property has water damage, it can become a breeding ground for mold. In optimal conditions, mold growth can occur as quickly as 48-72 hours after being exposed to moisture; in some cases, it can take longer. When spore counts are elevated, it can trigger allergies or other health effects in some people. If that wasn't bad enough, it can cause also structural damage to your home.
Since we began serving the Unifour area in 2009, our mold remediation team has assessed and remediated mold damage in hundreds of properties in the Lenoir, Morganton and Hickory, NC communities. If you have questions about mold and what you should do, check out our mold guide for homeowners.

Understanding Mold
Microscopic mold spores exist almost everywhere, outdoors and indoors, making it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Some restoration businesses advertise “mold removal” and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts:
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
- Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
- Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
- Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
