Concerned About Mold in Your New Castle County Home?
If you’re dealing with unexplained health symptoms, musty odors, or visible mold spots, you’re not alone. Many homeowners in New Castle County are unaware that mold or poor indoor air quality is the root cause of their discomfort — until it gets worse.
Why Mold Is a Serious Health Concern
Mold exposure can impact your health even if it’s hidden behind walls or under floors. Once airborne, mold spores can affect respiratory systems and trigger chronic conditions. Mold may be silently contributing to:
-
Chronic coughing or sneezing
-
Sinus congestion and throat irritation
-
Skin rashes or hives
-
Persistent headaches or brain fog
-
Asthma or allergic reactions
-
Fatigue or unexplained lethargy
Individuals with pre-existing respiratory issues, weakened immune systems, or children and seniors are especially vulnerable. The longer mold is left unaddressed, the more severe the health risks become.
Common Signs You May Have Mold or Poor Indoor Air Quality
Many people don’t realize there’s an issue until they connect the dots. Some of the most common indicators of mold or air quality problems include:
-
A musty or damp smell in one or more areas of the home
-
Discoloration or water stains on ceilings or walls
-
Warping floors or bubbling paint
-
Health symptoms that improve when you leave the property
-
Humid indoor air or persistent moisture
-
Past water damage, floods, or leaks that weren’t properly dried
Even if mold isn’t immediately visible, its effects can still be felt through the air you breathe.
How Mold Testing Works
If you’re unsure whether mold is really present, professional testing can provide clear answers. At Nash Everett, we use a comprehensive approach to indoor air quality and mold detection, which may include:
-
Air sampling to measure airborne mold spore levels
-
Surface sampling of visible growth or suspect materials
-
Thermal imaging to detect moisture behind walls
-
Humidity and ventilation assessments
-
Visual inspections of known problem zones like attics, crawl spaces, and basements
These diagnostics allow us to understand the full scope of what you’re facing — and more importantly, how to fix it.
