Leave Mold Remediation to the Experts
The winter storms that hit in February caused many pipes to burst, leading to water damage in homes and businesses all across Texas. Unfortunately, water damage often leads to mold growth. On February 12, Texas Governor Abbott issued a disaster declaration following the severe winter storm that caused damage statewide. The disaster declaration allows out of state and non-licensed mold inspectors and remediators to obtain temporary registration. Allowing a temporarily registered mold remediator to remove the mold from your home or business may lead to future issues with mold growth. If mold is not removed in its entirety, or if it is not removed properly, then this leaves the potential for mold to grow back or spread.
Mike Marshall, the Mold Inspection Sciences Texas Chief Operating Officer, issued this statement concerning the temporarily licensed mold remediators: “Repairs and cleanup have just begun. Texans need to be aware that you don’t want just anyone addressing a potential mold issue. You must seek out someone who is licensed and qualified.
"We’ve seen this happen before. Six, eight, twelve months down the road, state-licensed mold assessors and remediators come back to find ‘fixed’ properties worse off than they were from the initial damage. Our team specifically is still addressing the same type of issues from Hurricane Harvey in 2017!”
