"My project was chimney inspection and sweeping. The team that performed the service was professional and efficient. They arrived on time, surveyed the situation, worked well together, communicated to me what they had done when finished, and went the extra mile to leave my house better than they found it -- excellence all around -- thanks! (BTW, the survey format did not offer answers in the drop-down menu to match my project accurately. The fireplace did not need repair, but that's the closest response I could find. It would be helpful to include "other" or some such alternative, and let this "what else" box serve to provide more precise information.)"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

The difference between mold and mildew is that mildew is a mild type of mold, whereas mold can be used to describe many different types of fungus. In general, mold is more dangerous than mildew. If you spot mold in your home, you will need a professional mold remediation specialist to help clean and remove it.

Mold can grow anywhere in a home where moisture accumulates and doesn't dry out, particularly in areas with poor ventilation. Common materials affected include insulation and drywall. The most frequent locations for mold growth are attics, basements, crawl spaces, wall cavities, bathroom and kitchen walls, exposed foundations, windows and window sills, air conditioning and heating vents, and around fireplaces and chimneys.

In most cases, cloudy tap water is safe to drink, as the cause is often harmless air bubbles. A simple test is to let a glass of water sit for a few minutes; if the cloudiness dissipates, it was likely just trapped air. However, you cannot be certain of the water's safety without knowing the cause or performing a water test. If the cloudiness is persistent, comes with yellow or brown discoloration, or is accompanied by plumbing issues, it may pose a health risk. In such cases, it is best to call a local plumber to find the cause.

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.

Toxic mold doesn't have a specific color; instead, toxicity depends on the type of mold and the mycotoxins it produces. Stachybotrys chartarum (also known as black mold) is notorious for its potential toxicity. However, not all molds appearing black are Stachybotrys chartarum. Mold species that appear in various colors, such as green, gray, brown, or black, can also produce mycotoxins. Therefore, it's essential to focus on identifying the type of mold through professional testing rather than relying solely on color to determine its toxicity.
