IICRC-Certified Mold Remediation in Houston, TX
In Houston's humid subtropical climate, elevated indoor humidity or unresolved plumbing leaks allow toxic black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) and Aspergillus to spread aggressively.
Remediation technicians strictly follow Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) guidelines, using physical containment barriers and negative air filtration to safeguard indoor air.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I just spray bleach on mold?
Bleach only kills surface mold on non-porous surfaces like tile. On porous materials like wood or drywall, water in bleach actually feeds the deep fungal roots (hyphae), causing it to return with greater density.
