Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold and mildew are the things in basements that actually cause the musty odors, but moisture is the underlying issue that causes mold and mildew growth. Addressing moisture and water problems and then removing materials that are moldy are some of the best ways to get rid of the musty odors. Preventive measures after that—like installing air fresheners and a dehumidifier—can help keep musty odors from returning.

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.

Yes, brown spots on a ceiling are usually caused by water leaks and can lead to mold growth, especially if you don’t correct the underlying problem. Ongoing water leaks and moisture issues will almost always result in mold growth, especially if you live in a warm climate. Mold is a health hazard, so get the root problem fixed quickly, clean it, and encapsulate the area to avoid mold formation.

Black mold and wood rot are both types of fungi that form in damp or wet areas, but they cause different problems. Black mold grows on the surface of wood or other materials, while wood rot affects the structure of the wood material. Additionally, inhaling or contacting toxic black mold spores can make people sick. Wood rot spores are not known to cause illness in humans. 

Mold remediation is required if the mold growth covers more than 10 square feet of an area or the mold spore concentration is above 500 spores per cubic meter of air. You should also seriously consider remediation if there is a lot of water damage along with mold growth or if you suspect your HVAC system has been contaminated with mold. Remediation is also crucial if the mold damage has been caused by sewage or other contaminated water.
