Previously A+ Cleaning & Restoration, Defender Water & Mold Restoration is owned by Kevin Ricke and Tra Griffin. Defender is the #1 Authority in water/mold remediation services, has completed over 8,500 projects/inspections, and is a veteran owned and operated company. Kevin Ricke is a Vietnam Vet (Navy) and has been in the restoration industry for over 45 years. He's owned/operated all types of home service businesses ranging from carpet cleaning to plumbing services. To say Kevin is an expert is an understatement; there's nobody in the state of Alabama that has his knowledge when it comes to water/mold restoration. Tra Griffin served in the Marine Corps Infantry with two combat deployments to Iraq. In the civilian world, Tra spent time running operations for an INC 5000 franchise as well as overseeing operations, maintenance and renovations for a nation-wide SFR Property Management Company.

"This business was prompt, efficient and knew just what to do and how to do it. Will definitely call Cheaha Home Solutions again!"

When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it?s mold in your home, school, place of work or apartment there are many factors to consider. Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? Do you just want to test to be sure your environment is safe? Do you need Post Mold Remediation Testing to ensure a good job was done? These and other factors are questions which need to be answered before any environmental testing starts. It?s important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages & property damages require different environmental tests to prove your case in court. Tests that a common or inexperienced mold inspector would not typically use or know to use.

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Although you can run a DIY test for mold inside your home by buying a test kit, you won’t know whether the strain of mold is dangerous. The best way to test for mold in a home is to hire a professional who can determine the specific type of mold that you have. If you’re worried you exposed yourself to mold and it’s making you ill, you could request a health test. Your personal doctor could test your urine, take a nasal swab, or test some body tissue to determine your potential exposure to mold.

Using bowls of water for humidity can be an effective way to increase the humidity level in a room, but it's essential to consider potential risks. Placing bowls of water near heat sources might pose a hazard as they could spill, causing damage or creating slip hazards. Moreover, stagnant water can become a breeding ground for bacteria or mold (you really want to get rid of black mold stat) if not changed regularly, potentially negatively affecting indoor air quality. Water bowls can also accidentally spill onto surfaces, causing water damage to furniture or flooring. Regular maintenance and cautious placement can mitigate these risks.

Mold isn’t guaranteed to grow on wet drywall, but the longer drywall is wet and the more wet it is, the higher the risk of mold growth. Mold can grow in as little as 24 to 48 hours, so if the drywall is wet enough that it can’t dry in that time, mold can grow and spread across your drywall.

You can kill slime mold with organic fungicides and commercial products like BioSafe Disease Control. However, the following substances will also get rid of slime mold: baking soda, potassium bicarbonate, cornmeal, cornmeal tea, and hydrogen peroxide. Typically, these fungi are cosmetic and rarely harmful to plants, so it’s OK to wait it out. The matter will disappear in a few days to two weeks.

If you see mold spores on walls, flooring, or ceilings, it’s best to call in a mold inspection pro to investigate. Similarly, if you smell signs of mold—musty, earthy, rotting wood, or stale scents—it’s time to call a mold inspection professional. 

Other less-obvious times when you should have your home inspected for mold include:

  • After flooding

  • After home water damage

  • Having ceiling or wall damage

  • Buying or selling a home

  • After a persistent unexplained cough or allergy symptoms 

  • Noticing discolored surfaces
