Water damage and resulting mold growth are major issues in the construction and insurance industries today. Household mold and mildew produce microscopic spores (seeds) that are released when humidity is high or when disturbed. These spores are allergens that can cause hay fever like symptoms, allergic reactions, asthma and other serious illnesses.

Mold spores require three ingredients to grow: a source of moisture, organic material and a dark temperature space with little airflow. Many wall and floor structures in today's "tight" homes provide a perfect environment for growth and have plenty of organic material present for food.p>Thin-set and grout are not productive to mold growth- the PH levels are too high. The surface mold you see may be the result of a colony, which has established itself behind the tile, infesting and rotting your unprotected walls. A costly renovation is now the only cure.
