South Florida’s environmental conditions create the perfect atmosphere for mold growth if a home is not properly maintained and protected. Mold exists all around us, but excess humidity in the home can create prime conditions for an abnormal fungal ecology.
When there is mold suspected in a home or building, the first step would be to call in a mold assessor. Assessors are the only people who would be certified to officially determine if a home has an abnormal fungal ecology. Florida Licensed Mold Assessors must complete education requirements as well as provide evidence of extensive fieldwork in sampling, water training, and even respirator training under the supervision of a licensed assessor. Mold can only be properly identified through microscopic examination with either an air sample or site contact sample.
If an assessor determines that an abnormal fungal ecology exists, the next step is mold remediation. This is vital since mold remediators are the only ones licensed and certified to properly clean or dispose of mold infected products, cleanse the home, and even purify the air. Like assessors, Florida Licensed Mold Remediators must complete education and field experience under the supervision of a licensed remediator in order to apply for a license. Once the remediation is completed and the home is verified abnormal ecology free, any cosmetic or structural construction can be completed by a general contractor.
Preventing water intrusion is one the most important ways to protect your home or property from dangerous conditions like abnormal fungal ecologies. In South Florida, humid air and routine thunderstorms create problems for homes that do not have a proper water seal on every opening or possible intrusion point. Windows and doors are the typically the largest and most vulnerable water intrusion points in a structure
