THE CONSEQUENCES OF MILDEW

 
HEALTH CONCERNS

Mildew has in recent years become as much a health issue as an eyesore issue. Mildew growth on a building's exterior surfaces can enter the building. The spores enter through exposed soffits and roof vents into the warm, stale attic environment. The mold spores then travel into the structure's walls and can go undetected for years. Breathing and other health issues have been reported in buildings with mold and mildew infestations.

AESTHETIC CONCERNS

Our homes and commercial buildings are most often are most valuable assets. Keeping these assets free of damaging and unsightly mildew makes good financial sense. Removing mildew from a structure's exterior surfaces not only makes them look new but also increases the life span of each surface.

Local homeowners associations are becoming more diligent in addressing unsightly mildew in their communities. Violation notices from HOA boards are continuously informing homeowners of the by-laws that address each home's exterior upkeep. These letters generally address mildew growing on the roof of a structure, walls, and concrete surfaces. Mid-Florida Pressure Cleaning Inc. receives calls daily from distraught homeowners needing immediate cleanings to satisfy their association’s requirements.

SAFETY CONCERNS

Most Floridians have walked on sidewalks or driveways and encountered mildew's slippery effect. The combination of a porous horizontal surface and Florida’s tropical climate can yield very dangerous surfaces. Regular cleanings to remove and kill mildew will significantly minimize accidents and safety concerns.
