Why Get a Mold Surface Test With WIN?

A Mold Test is not just a routine service; it’s a crucial step in safeguarding the health and integrity of your home. When water penetrates your home, mold can begin to grow within just 24 to 48 hours, so it’s critical to act quickly when mold is suspected. When left untreated, surface mold can feed on organic materials like wood, drywall, and insulation, leading to decay, warping, and weakening of the structural components of your home.
