Is Mold Growing in Your Tallahassee Bathroom?

High moisture levels in bathrooms provide the right environment for mold growth.

Improper Ventilation Can Cause Mold to Grow in Your Tallahassee Bathroom

Showering in a tiny bathroom can be awkward due to the lack of space, but the problem can become significantly worse if a lack of proper ventilation causes mold damaged inside it. When steam builds up in the bathroom as the shower runs, it is usually taken care of by a fan in the ceiling. However, a broken fan or incorrectly installed ventilation causes excess moisture to linger. 

As family members take showers, the leftover steam and condensation can cause mold damage inside of your Tallahassee bathroom. You may begin to smell the musty odor before you see the mold, or you may spot it blooming on the wall. However, the way you detect the mold is not relevant; what is essential is that you contact us for help as soon as you do find it.
