What Mold Is and Why It's Dangerous
Mold is a fungus that grows in damp places. It spreads fast and releases spores you breathe in. For kids, elderly people, and anyone with breathing problems, mold can cause serious health issues.
Don't ignore these signs:
- Black or green spots on walls, ceilings, or pipes
- Musty, earthy smell in your basement or bathroom
- Peeling paint or warped drywall
- Family members coughing or getting respiratory infections
- Moisture or water stains that won't go away
Here's the thing: mold doubles in size every 24-48 hours if it stays wet. The longer you wait, the more expensive and complicated removal becomes. That's why calling us fast matters.
Why Dumont Homes Get Mold
Dumont sits in an area with a lot of moisture. Our humidity is high year-round. The town gets winter snow and spring rains that soak into basements. Many homes here have older plumbing and foundations that aren't waterproofed.
Basement Moisture
Dumont basements are prone to seeping water and humidity. We see this constantly in homes near Madison Park and the neighborhoods around the train station.
Pipe Leaks
Older pipes corrode and leak. Even small drips create perfect conditions for mold in walls and crawl spaces.
Poor Ventilation
Bathrooms and attics without proper ventilation trap moisture. This is especially common in Dumont's older homes.
How We Remove Mold (In Plain English)
We Inspect Everything
We look for mold in all the hiding spots: walls, insulation, ductwork, and crawl spaces. We use moisture meters to find wet areas you can't see. This tells us how bad it is and where it started.
We Contain It
We seal off the moldy area with plastic sheeting and set up air scrubbers that pull spores out of the air. This keeps mold from spreading to clean parts of your home while we work.
We Clean or Remove
If the mold is on hard surfaces, we clean it with hospital-grade antimicrobial treatments. If it's in insulation or drywall that's too damaged, we remove those materials safely and dispose of them properly.
We Fix the Root Problem
Mold comes back if you don't stop the moisture. We find the leak, the poor ventilation, or the humidity problem and fix it. No mold removal is complete without addressing what caused it.
We Verify It's Gone
When we're done, we take air quality readings to confirm the spore levels are back to normal. You can breathe easy knowing your home is safe.
Questions Dumont Families Ask Us
Can I just clean mold myself with bleach?
Not if it's large or hidden. Bleach kills surface mold but doesn't stop what's behind your walls. When you spray bleach, you also release spores into the air, making it worse. And if kids or pets breathe bleach, that's dangerous.
Small spots (smaller than a credit card) on hard surfaces can be wiped down. Anything bigger needs professionals.
How fast can you get to my Dumont home?
We're usually there in 25-40 minutes. We have teams stationed throughout Bergen County. Call us and we'll tell you our exact arrival time. If it's a weekend or middle of the night, we still come fast because mold doesn't take days off.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover this?
Usually, yes. If the mold came from a covered event like a pipe burst or roof leak, insurance often pays. If it's from poor maintenance or humidity, they might not. We bill your insurance directly, and you only pay your deductible or any amount insurance doesn't cover.
We always send your insurance company photos and a detailed report so they understand what happened.
How long does mold removal take?
It depends on size. A small bathroom might take 1-3 days. A large basement can take a week or more. We'll give you a timeline when we inspect. Most of our Dumont jobs are finished within 5 business days.
Will my house smell bad after mold removal?
No. We use antimicrobial treatments that eliminate the musty odor. When we're done, your home smells fresh again, not like chemicals. Everything is safe for kids and pets to be around.
What if I have mold in my walls?
We can remove drywall and insulation if needed. We contain the area first so spores don't spread. Then we replace it with new, mold-resistant materials. It's more expensive than surface mold, but it's the only way to fix the problem permanently. Your insurance usually covers this.
