"I am so grateful to Johnnie and Chris from Mid Hudson Home Restoration! My husband and I hired them on two separate occasions. First hire - there was water damage in the basement and possible mold. I consulted with Johnnie over the phone and he quickly arranged for a visit. He quoted us that the work will be done in 3-5 days. Johnnie and Chris carefully took apart the dry wall, remediated the mold, and sealed everything up again in the timeframe they promised. They also repainted our entire basement and did a great phenomenal job. Second hire - we had a ceiling leak from an unknown source. Johnnie cleared his schedule for us and came immediately once he saw the video we sent. He found the source of the leak within minutes and over the next couple days, replacing the ceiling and sealed everything up. Johnnie and Chris are detail oriented and thorough with their work. Above all, they are warm, honest people who truly care and take pride in what they do."

"This company is great at what they do. Used them twice. They helped removed asbestos tile and mold from my basement. They were quick, clean and most importantly got rid of the "bad stuff". They did such a good job the first time that I called them again when i unfortunately found mold in my crawl space. Both times eradicated all traces of mold. Would gladly use them a third time if needed!"

"My whole world crumbled when my bathroom leaked water down my walls and out of my ceiling. I didn't know what to do. I'm a new home owner and have never processed a claim through my insurance. Wes showed up to my house in all the mess. He was there within an hour of the issue happening. Not only did he and his company take care of the damage, they took care of everything with the insurance company. I was out of my home for over three weeks. My animals were displaced and I had to leave my kitties locked in the basement. They went so far above and beyond, they even fed and watered my cats! It was a stressful situation, but they took so much pressure off of me by handling everything! When I was finally able to go back home, not only was the water damage gone, my house was sparkling clean from top to bottom on both floors of my house. My house hasn't been this clean ever! It's like I walked into a brand new home. They updated me everyday. I never had to reach out, because they were in constant communication. I am so blessed this company came in and saved the day. The work was phenomenal. You better believe I have them saved in my phone. I was assured they do all manner of work my home could possibly need. Next time I need help with ANYTHING, I'm calling Wes at Plow and Property Projects!"

"for $50 we had an initial reading done, bought two Aerus Angel Air Scubbing/Purifying units, and now we can breath easily in our home again after a severe mold problem in the home was partly remediated (so far). The service was professional, prompt, and detailed. The products were worth the price for our health."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Musty smells often indicate the presence of mold, which can lead to various health risks. Inhalation of mold spores may trigger allergic reactions, causing sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose, and itchy or watery eyes. People who suffer from mold allergies or asthma may experience more severe respiratory problems. Certain types of mold, like black mold, can lead to mycotoxicosis, a condition associated with serious health effects like respiratory problems, fatigue, headaches, and skin irritation if exposure continues for an extended period. Those with weakened immune systems, respiratory problems, or allergies may be more vulnerable to the health risks that come with musty smells. Therefore, it is crucial to address and eliminate the source of the odor promptly.

According to the EPA, mold grows within 24 to 48 hours if left untreated after a water leak. So unless you notice the leak and stop it right away, you only have a day or so before mold is a real concern. If you don’t notice the leak, it can take about three weeks for the mold spores to become visible. That means you’ve likely had an active mold infection for a few weeks by the time you notice discoloration.

Several factors contribute to the persistent growth of mold in vents, with excess moisture being the most common culprit. Consistent mold formation in vents indicates an ongoing moisture problem within the HVAC system or its surroundings, likely caused by condensation on cool surfaces in areas with high humidity. Moisture accumulation can also result from leaks in ductwork, inadequate ventilation, or insufficient insulation, creating an environment favorable for mold growth. Regular inspections, addressing potential sources of moisture, maintaining proper ventilation, and routine HVAC maintenance can help prevent the recurrence of mold in vents. If the issue persists, seek professional assistance to identify and rectify the underlying problems.

Window sill mold can be harmful, but the severity depends on the type. Common household molds like Cladosporium or Aspergillus can trigger allergies, respiratory issues, or worsen asthma symptoms. However, black mold (Stachybotrys) can produce mycotoxins that can harm your health. Even less toxic molds should be addressed promptly to prevent health risks and property damage.

It is common for mold to grow around air vents, especially in areas with high humidity or moisture problems. These vents provide a perfect environment for mold to thrive due to the condensation caused by the meeting of warm and cool air. Mold growth can be accelerated by the presence of dust and debris around the vents. Regular maintenance, proper ventilation, and addressing any water leaks or excess humidity can prevent the growth of mold around air vents.
