We restore mold damage in Miami-Dade County!

The warm, moist climate in Florida creates the perfect environment for mold to thrive, making mold outbreaks a common challenge in South Beach. Our local Miami Beach team is trained and certified to mitigate and restore mold damage in South Beach by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC). The Florida Department of Health offers these tips for preventing mold growth:

Keep your home clean and dry. When water stands for even 24 hours, common molds can take hold. Keeping humidity levels below 60 percent and venting moisture from showering and cooking to the outside are several ways to prevent the conditions that can lead to mold growth. Other ways include:

• Clean and dry up spills within 24 hours
• Dry out wet building materials and carpets within 24 hours
• Use an air conditioner or a dehumidifier to reduce the indoor humidity levels below 60 percent. If you have a central air conditioning system and need a dehumidifier to reduce relative humidity below 60 percent, you should have the air conditioning system examined for problems
• Do not carpet bathrooms or basements
• Note: While most experts suggest a relative humidity of less than 60 percent, below 50 percent is best for controlling both mold growth and dust mites
