What Is Mold?
Mold is a microscopic organism, a type of fungus that can grow and flourish in optimal conditions, such as when moisture and food are present. Mold is often associated with humid, damp conditions that allow it to grow. In ideal conditions, mold will release spores (seeds) into the air to further its growth.
Water leaks such as leaky roofs and pipes are obvious sources of moisture. Some moisture sources can be more obscure such as condensation from air infiltration and HVAC leaks. This moisture facilitates mold growth. Bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, attics, and basements or crawlspaces are prime mold growth locations, but mold can be found in any area of the building. Mold requires an organic food source in order to grow as well. Mold can feed on any organic material such as the paper on drywall, wood framing members, wallpaper, wall paints, carpet, and many more.

Amazing! Friendly! Quick! Quality! I can’t say enough about ERS. Hopefully I will never need their services again, but if I do, I know they will be there for my family and me.Thank you again !!!(John is incredible!)
I have know Chad for about 8-9 years know, I have even done work with chad to rebuild some of the emergencies he has done work on. I never thought I would need him to take care of a water emergency at my own place. Chad was nothing less that amazing with his explanation of how the process was going to go and his crew took care of my place in a few days. They did and awesome job and would recommend them to anyone if they have an emergency just like I did.
The lady who answered the phone was very professional and helpful. The estimator who came onsite was punctual. He seemed honest about what might need remediation and explained what he thought did not require attention. We received very professional looking, detailed estimates.
This company and it's employees are prompt, understanding, accommodating, respectful and most of all, knowledgeable and capable of fixing your problem. They are very easy to work with. I'll definitely hire them again if I encounter more house problems.
