Mold and Moisture Assessment Inspection - Trenton, OH

WEFM was contacted to do a mold and moisture assessment in Trenton, OH, just outside of Cincinnati, OH. This one was pretty obvious. There was visible growth behind the wallpaper which is a common hiding place for mold. Moisture readings were well above the acceptable limit on two of the outside walls. The growth was also facilitated by a questionable air conditioning system. Humidity in the store was around 75%! These two interior walls will need to be removed entirely, the wall cavities treated with an antimicrobial and everything replaced.

Where WEFM excels is in our tenacity. The mold is obvious, the cause usually isn't. After a quick inspection of the exterior of the building, we located several cracks in the mortar and caulk at the base of those walls. We have suggested the building owners address that as soon as possible, have the HVAC system inspected and THEN we'll be back to do what we do.
