Orlando mold inspections are needed now more than ever. The average person has no idea of what is in the air of which they breathe. Some people have the attitude that if they ignore it, it won’t bother them. Believe me the poor indoor air quality they are breathing is bothering them. Poor indoor air quality is a very real thing, and sometimes goes unnoticed for years. The average Orlando homeowner doesn’t think about mold unless they see or smell it. You could be breathing harmful toxic mold spores every day and not know it. The illnesses and symptoms vary but the culprit is the same…. Mold. Think of the smoker, they don’t show the signs of smoking for years even though the effect started many years earlier. I, like you were totally oblivious to the real mold issues until I got in the business. Awareness is the first step to resolving the mold issues in your Orlando home. The experts at Ajek Mold inspection want you to understand why it’s there, and how to get rid of it. Give us at 407.312.2358 or online at www.orlandomoldinspector.com to breathe cleaner air tomorrow.

One of the biggest misconceptions in the cleaning world, is that bleach will kill mold. This is the farthest from the truth. Bleach is a wonderful cleaning and disinfectant to use around your home, but bleach will NOT kill mold. If you read carefully any of the chemicals that claim to kill mold, the thing they usually claim is the fact that they will remove mold and mildew stains, not the mold or mildew. The thing is that bleach does the same thing it does to everything else, it bleaches it. Bleached mold goes clear, and you are non the wiser. The issue lies in the fact that the mold is still there and getting ready to show it’s face once again. Do you ever wonder why you clean your bathroom with products that have bleach in them, just to clean them again in a few weeks. The reason is the mold or mildew never dies. The only way to truly kill mold is to use a biocide or an anit-microbial. These chemicals are cabable of killing living organisms. Killing the organism is the only way to get rid of it. Now just figure out why it was there, and how to change that pattern. The experts at Ajek Mold Inspection are here to help. Just give us a call to get rid of your mold problems, once and for all. We can be reached 7 days a week at 407.312.2358 or online at www.orlandomoldinspector.com

The choice of words could have been better, but you get the message. Homes all over central Florida, especially in Volusia and Brevard counties are under water. The contractors are out in full force the repair the damages left behind by tropical storm Fay. Now don’t get me wrong, the contractors will, in most cases do a great job at replacing what they see damaged. The problem is that they are not going to fix the mold problem they do not see. It’s not their responsibility, but it is yours. If your buying a home in the Orlando area, and don’t have a home inspection and a mold inspection performed, your just asking for problems. Not only is a home an investment for you, but it’s where your family will live for years to come. It may sound like a scare tactic, but it’s not. Mold is a very real problem in our area in particular, and should be taken seriously. A home and mold inspection is a small price for the piece of mind you’ll be wanting. In most scenarios the home can be cleaned and disinfected as good as new, but addressing the problem is key. There are chronic health issues that go undiagnosed for years, that could have been resolved if a mold inspection would have been performed. The experts at Ajek Mold Inspection will help you see what you can’t, helping you make a more educated decision.

They call Florida the sunshine state, but sometimes it makes you wonder. Under normal circumstances we have high humidity issues, but lately those levels have gone through the roof. With some areas in Brevard county, and Volusia county receiving 20+ inches of rain, mold will be a problem for some time to come. The hidden issue lies in the fact that even though the water damaged areas in the home can be cleaned or replaced, there are some things that get overlooked. If you think that the smell is just a smell and eventually it will go away, you’re wrong. The musty smell may go, but what it leaves behind will haunt you for years to come. If there is mold in your Orlando home, and if your air conditioning was on at any time during the process, the spores found their way in. I’m a big advocate of have good indoor air quality, and it all starts with your a/c system. You can spray all the cover-up scent you like but the mold will still there. The professionals at Ajek Mold Inspection know how to correct what mother nature has left behind. We needed water…. but not that much. If you are having a mold or air quality issue in your orlando home don’t hesitate to give us a call 7 days a week at 407.312.2358 or online at www.orlandomoldinspector.com

In my travels as an inspector in the Central Florida area, I’ve noticed a lot of little things we can do to keep our environments cleaner. One of the most effective things we can do to fight against bacteria is the overall awareness of “hot points”. Hot points are locations we come in contact with often. There are many hot points in your Orlando home or business if you think about it. The front door handle, refrigerator handle, sink knobs, bathroom door, and so on. These hot points are a breeding ground for bacteria and germs. There are specific steps that once put into place can keep these areas clean and safe for the you and the ones around you. At Ajek Mold Inspection we understand the little things that make your quality of life better. An appointment with one of our experienced indoor air quality inspectors will bring a greater awareness to these and other concerns you may have. So many other inspection services want to do your mold inspection, and walk away. That is not the case with Ajek, we want to educate you so you understand the issues and how to eliminate them in the future. We want to improve your quality of life by reducing bacteria and mold from the inside of your home, don’t you?

One of the things that is often over looked around the home is the indoor air quality. If you don’t smell it, it must be good, right? Well that is usually not the case. The air that is trapped in our homes is exactly that trapped. If there is mold growing in your home, your own air conditioner will recirculate the mold around the entire home. Good indoor air quality is more complex than getting a “mold killing” light bulb installed in your a/c system for around $600 bucks. There are several factors that must be evaluated before making a decision on what is the right path for you. Here at Ajek Mold Inspection we want to solve your air quality issues for life, not masking them. Masking the issue isn’t the right answer, but with education and a solid eco-friendly solution in mind you’ll know you are in the right direction for clean air in your Orlando home or business today and well into the future. Give us a call today to breath clean air tomorrow. It is that important, isn’t it? To schedule an appointment call 407.312.2358 or online at http://www.orlandomoldinspector.com/ask-for-quote.php
