Mold Damage
Mold, mildew, fungi, and harmful bacteria are among the most prevalent biological hazards found in residential and commercial properties. Despite Colorado's generally dry climate, these organisms establish themselves anywhere moisture accumulates. Bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, basements, and any space impacted by water intrusion offer the conditions these contaminants need to flourish.
Health Concerns Associated with Mold
Mold isn't just unsightly and unpleasant-smelling—it represents a genuine threat to the health of building occupants. When mold colonies release spores into the air, many people experience allergic symptoms including irritated and watery eyes, persistent runny nose, sneezing fits, nasal and sinus congestion, recurring headaches, and chronic fatigue. Individuals with respiratory sensitivities, asthma, or weakened immune systems face heightened risks and may develop more serious complications from prolonged mold exposure.
Impact on Building Structures
When mold growth continues unchecked, the colonies actively consume organic building components as nutrients. Wooden framing, drywall paper backing, ceiling tiles, and other organic materials gradually break down under this biological attack. What begins as a small, manageable patch can evolve into widespread structural compromise—with associated repair costs climbing into tens of thousands of dollars.
Immediate Action Is Critical
Mold spreads with alarming speed once established. Each day of inaction gives colonies time to expand their reach, release additional spores throughout the structure, and cause progressively greater damage. Dry Force technicians carry professional certifications in mold inspection, containment, remediation, and prevention strategies. We deploy HEPA filtration systems, establish negative air pressure containment zones, and apply commercial antimicrobial treatments to completely eliminate mold while preventing future recurrence.
