How do I get rid of mold?

Facts about mold removal in Alamo Ranch, TX

Mold is an organism that acts very much like a plant. It has a root system, called hyphae, and releases spores when it matures. The root system is the main reason for cutting out mold.

Simply wiping mold off the will remove the surface, but the hyphae will stay dormant until the next time the wall gets wet. There are claims of using bleach or other chemicals to kill the mold but it is not guaranteed on a porous surface. We spray a disinfectant which can kill most of the mold but the standard practice is to remove the contaminated building materials to assure no mold growth will reoccur.
