“We were readying our house to be put up for sale when we experienced a large water leak that damaged most of the basement. Mike, and his team, were there immediately. They had the damages cleaned up within the day and left fans to dry the basement out. Within two weeks the basement was rebuilt, painted and ready for us to put up for sale. Always grateful to Mike and his team.”

“Mike and his team were incredibly professional, very communicative of the process, and did a great job getting the mould out of our attic. The whole process was smooth sailing, and would definitely return to them for any futures issues!”

“Mike and his team showed up promptly and helped. We had water damage which caused the floor to go bad as we had Parkay floor, in my house. He was awarded the contract for the restoration and his quality and craftsmanship is of very high quality, and good people doing the job. I would definitely recommend 911 for any damages or repairs thanks for the great work and hassle-free commitment.”

Mould is a dirty and dangerous germ that can thrive in dark places. You may have heard of it growing on surfaces like furniture or carpets, but this slimy fungus also likes moist environments - especially those found within your home!
What's The Problem With Mould?
When inhaled (or touched), its spores enter our bloodstream through tiny cuts skin cells. If we are exposed to mould in the long-term without getting rid of it, it'll damage both our physical home and body.
Check for mould: If you see water accumulating in the bathroom or near the sink, then there is a good chance that mould will grow. Additionally, if your basement/attic seems unusually humid and there are spots/stains on carpets as well. If these areas have been growing for some time it's easy to spot patches of slimy-looking growth from moulds which can lead them extensive damage beyond what simple cleaning might do alone!
Mould Smell: The musty or damp smell that's often present in closed dark areas is caused by hidden leaks, water accumulation and carpets/rugs which have stains. These smells can also come from bathrooms where there are leaky pipes or rusted plumbing fixtures for example. Mould will start to grow when you don't have enough light reaching your plants' roots since they need at least 12 hours of sunlight daily with temperatures between 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit (15 Celsius).
Crawl Space: Moisture in your crawl space is dangerous and can lead to mould growth. Unfortunately, it's not always easy for homeowners without professional experience with insulation or ventilation systems on their homes (or both) to notice that there might be an issue until they start experiencing problems like musty odours during certain times of the year; ceiling leaks which result from water seeping through the shingles onto underlying beams/construction paper before evaporating due this increased moisture levels; plus more obvious symptoms such us blackened walls below grade.
Health Issues: Has someone living with you been experiencing respiratory problems? If so, they could be reacting to mould and need an inspection of their home's air quality. One-third (34%) percent homeowners report having health issues due the presence of mouldy buildings or poor ventilation within one meter from them at night time when asleep during winter months ́(Upton 2013). This is because moisture condenses on cold surfaces leads to growths of the adverse microorganisms that can cause serious illnesses such as asthma attacks if inhaled by those who have preexisting vulnerabilities towards these toxins based off genetic makeup
Mould is notorious for destroying buildings if left unchecked.
Worse yet, studies show that it can harm your physical health and lead to chronic illness.
The longer you wait, the worse the damage and the expense get. This is for your home and your physical health.

What to DO
Water damage from weather and fire can expose your home to excess moisture, leaving it vulnerable to mould and mildew.
Mould can become a serious hazard within 48 hours. If left unattended, it will end up destroying your property and cause a myriad of health issues.
It's important you call for professional mould services immediately after spotting water damage. If you smell a musky odour, chances are you already have mould infesting your spaces and require a prompt solution to prevent suffering respiratory issues.
Here’s what you can do before your mould remediation company arrives:
- Stay away from the mould-infested areas;
- Turn off the heating and ventilation system to prevent spreading the mould;
- Lock doors and windows in affected rooms to prevent anyone from disturbing the mould.
What NOT to Do
Knowing what not to do during an emergency mould problem is just as important as knowing what to do:
- Don’t touch, clean or disturb the mould in any way;
- Don’t blow air or vacuum surfaces suspected to have mould;
- If the suspected area is wet, don’t dry without professional help;
- Resist DIYs, such as spraying bleach or other suggested disinfectants on the affected areas.
