"Dave was super helpful and steered me toward the real solution I needed -- not testing but direct remediation of a leaking window and wall. His experience really helped get the job done and to calm my nerves after I discovered the leak!"

"For anyone looking for a reliable and honest company- I highly recommend Pacific Pure Maintenance. After having exposure to TOXIC mold in my home, I had Pacific Pure Maintenance quote the project for mold remediation. My insurance company however, had me go with another company that cut and removed the mold without doing any kind of treating to the air. Months later I was still ill and contacted Pacific Pure Maintenance and they were very knowledgeable and helpful. They removed the toxins /air spores that were continuing to make me sick. (Something that other companies did not do NOR recommend). At the time, I knew NOTHING about mold exposure and I was looking to the experts for advise and none of the other mold removal companies were as helpful as Pacific Pure Maintenance. I am forever grateful to this company for doing what other companies didnt and going above and beyond."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Yes, mold can grow on nonporous surfaces. Mold is extremely resilient and can survive just about anywhere. However, mold will not grow as quickly on a nonporous surface as on a porous one. Additionally, the nonporous nature makes it easier to remove. Keep the countertop clean and properly maintained, and you shouldn’t experience mold growth.

If you need mold remediation, you’re probably looking at a bill of a couple thousand dollars or more. Sometimes, though, your homeowner’s insurance policy may cover some or all of the costs of the remediation. If the black mold forms because of a covered event, such as a storm that damages your roof, and causes leaking or flooding in the basement, it’s possible the policy also covers mold remediation. It never hurts to ask your insurance company if it will cover the cost of black mold remediation.

Mold grows quickly. It typically begins to grow on drywall about 24 hours after exposure to moisture or humidity. Drywall is a porous material, which makes it particularly hospitable to mold growth. 

While mold growth begins after just a day or so, it can take a few weeks before the evidence becomes visible. Mold spores will typically appear on the drywall surface within three weeks of growth starting.

Slime mold can thrive for weeks or months in the perfect environment, but that rarely occurs. The mold will typically die within a week of you noticing it. However, it could be dead long before it disappears, and since it’s safe to handle, it’s easier to get rid of it all at once. This eliminates its chance to spread, and also won’t leave you looking at decaying slime mold.

If dresser drawers are damp or dirty, they could be transferring odors to your clothes. Make sure to only store clean, dry clothes in dresser drawers. Plan to thoroughly clean out the drawer interiors at least two times per year.
