What Can I Do if I Have Mold Growing in My Kailua Home?

Aloha! If you discover mold growing in your home or business, it may be a sign of a leak or hidden water damage. When we arrive, we will locate the source of the excess moisture and fix the problem as part of the remediation process to discourage the mold from returning once it has been contained and removed.

Our local team in Kailua has years of experience mitigating and remediating mold. The humid climate in Kailua encourages mold growth, and heavy rain or water damage can also bring excess moisture into the house. Mold spores are always present in the atmosphere waiting for the right moist conditions to colonize!

Important Facts:

  • Significant mold growth can occur in 48 to 72 hours
  • Mold may present a risk of health effects in certain individuals
  • A strong, musty odor may indicate hidden mold behind drywall or under carpeting

What to Do:

  • Stay out of affected areas
  • Turn off the HVAC system and fans
  • Contact our office in Kailua for mold remediation services

What Not to Do:

  • Don’t touch or disturb the mold
  • Don’t blow air across any surfaces with visible or suspected mold growth
  • Don’t attempt to dry the area yourself
  • Don’t spray bleach or other disinfectants on the mold
