Over one thousand different kinds of mold have been found in United States homes.
(prHWY.com) August 1, 2012 - Utah, UT -- Over one thousand different kinds of mold have been found in United States homes. Mold is responsible for illness and decay every year, yet some home owners don't know they have the deadly organism in their home. Inspection agencies such as Watch Dogs Home Inspectors offer their
mold inspection services to home owners in Utah to help them determine the safety of their homes and potential homes.
Inspection before Buying a Home
Potential home buyers may think they've found the home of their dreams, until the inspection. David Jensen of Salt Lake City said, "I was ready to move in, but hired Watch Dog
Home Inspectors before I signed on the house I was looking at. When they found a large mold infestation downstairs, I was so grateful I called them first. I can't imagine finding that mold after moving in. I was able to find a house I am even happier about, and this one passed Watch Dogs' inspection! I'm living mold free, thanks to their inspectors." Many others have similar stories to Jensen's, and were able to avoid potential health and home hazards by hiring mold inspectors before purchasing their homes.
Inspection after Living in a Home
A home that passes the initial pre-purchase mold inspection doesn't have a free pass forever. After a family has lived in a home for several years, they should hire a
mold inspector to determine the current safety of their home. Families who have experienced symptoms of allergy or other unusual illnesses should be especially concerned about mold, both the locating and prevention of mold in their homes. Watch Dogs Home Inspectors and other inspection agencies stand ready to complete mold inspections for anyone who requests them, whether potential home buyers or 30 year owners of a home.
