Mold Levels
To give you an idea of what the different mold levels look like, keep reading:
Level 1 – 10 square feet or smaller
This amount of mold won’t cause damage to the studs, trusses, etc. It’s usually limited to ceilings, baseboards, and similar areas.
Level 2 – 10-30 square feet
We’d recommend an inspection that goes beyond the surface. For anything above level 1, it’s recommended that you let a professional handle the removal.
Level 3 – 30-100 square feet
For this size mold colony, chances are it’s been growing for a while, which means a big problem could be lurking. Your home definitely needs testing and an inspection to see if the mold has begun to affect the structural materials.
Level 4 – 100 or more square feet
Level 4 mold has been left unchecked for a long time, and it’s very dangerous during cleaning because of the amount of mold spores that can be released into the air. Everyone who works on mold contamination of this level should be trained and certified. Repairs and replacements are likely.
Level 5 – HVAC system
Level 5 contamination is very serious, and it should only be treated by an expert. We can administer antimicrobial treatment to the interior of the system so that further mold growth is arrested.
Depending on the severity of your mold problem, we will come up with a treatment plan that best suits the situation, including repair and restoration services.

Mold is dangerous to your health
Mold removal companies will sometimes tell customers that they will remove mold from their homes, and those trusting homeowners believe that their homes will be 100% mold-free when the remediation services are complete.
Mold Remediation Spokane WA tries to dispel this myth as often as possible. Mold is a naturally occurring substance that lives everywhere, indoors as well as outside. Therefore, it can never be completely removed.
Mold is not a problem in most cases. It only needs to be remediated, or ‘removed,’ when it gets out of balance and begins growing in colonies. These are the large black, green, or brown stains you see on your walls.
Not only is mold an eyesore, but it can also affect your health if you don’t have it taken care of in its early stages.
Some health conditions that can develop because of mold include all of the following:
In people with respiratory conditions, their normal symptoms may be exacerbated. Humans and animals alike can have reactions to excess mold in the home, whether it is visible or not, so don’t hesitate to have your home inspected if someone in your home exhibits these symptoms with no explainable cause.
