Missouri experiences high humidity levels, particularly in summer, which can lead to mold growth in homes and businesses. Older buildings may also contain asbestos, especially in insulation and flooring. AWA Environmental provides thorough mold inspections, asbestos testing, and other services to ensure your property is free from these risks.
The short answer is moisture. Any water exposed or available in the home can be utilized to grow mold. This can come in the form of humidity or a water leak. Leaks can come from plumbing sources, roofs, or exterior windows and walls. Humidity can become an issue when your home’s HVAC system is not regulating moisture properly. These are only a couple of the common ways moisture is let out in the home for mold to develop, but as inspectors we take great care with inspecting all areas of the home and all possible sources of mold growth.
