"We called Silva’s Painting & Construction yesterday to reinforce two shelves that were sagging. They came and fixed them right away. Then we asked if they could construct additional shelves for our custom storage cabinets in our garage. They took measurements and a sample and constructed them in a very short amount of time. Silva’s and sons, Giovanni and Alex along with their amazing father, Sergio, have been wonderful in helping us with our move to another neighborhood and all the adjustments needed. Highly recommend and endorse this business."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Telling the difference between poisonous and nonpoisonous mushrooms is difficult even for trained mushroom experts and biologists! However, nature provides some red flags for poisonous mushrooms. Assume that any mushroom with a red cap or stem is poisonous. You should also assume mushrooms with white gills, rings, skirts, or a sack-like base are poisonous. 

It depends on the type of AC unit and the extent of the mold growth. For example, if you have a small amount of mold in your central air conditioner, it’s worth cleaning it to protect your HVAC system and your health. In situations like these, you can often remove the mold yourself in a couple of hours. On the other hand, if you have a portable AC unit with a severe mold problem, it makes more sense to buy a new one. On average, replacing a portable AC unit costs $100 to $500.

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.

It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.

Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.

Both mildew and mold come from fungi. One of the main differences is that mildew’s texture is dry and powdery, whereas mold is fuzzy and slimy. In addition, mildew isn’t very thick, while mold looks three-dimensional. Also, mildew is typically light in color, whereas mold comes in various shades, including green and black.
