Envirotex helped alleviate the stress associated with the flooding of our basement. Although the insurance adjuster was quick to get a company in there to rip out the carpeting and drag it out into our driveway (where it remained for several days), neither the adjuster nor the carrier was concern about the ensuing mold growth that we were seeing on the drywall and ceiling tiles. If not for the professional survey, analysis and report that you furnished detailing the extent of the mold contamination, the cause thereof and the work that was required to be performed, I am certain that we would still be fighting with the insurance company. Thank you, we are very glad that we had Envirotex in our corner!

Should You Clean the Air Ducts In Your Prince William County VA Home?

The air ducts in your Northern Virginia home carry the air from your heating and cool system throughout your home. As the air travels through the air ducts, whatever is inside will be transported from one location to another - no matter if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Air ducts can contain mold spores, which when carried to different location of your home can lead to mold growth throughout. Mold spores attach to a surface, and then continue to grow and spread, making it difficult to breathe for many and can lead to fatal consequences for some individuals.

Air duct cleaning is one way to help reduce mold and other allergens that could be spread throughout the house. Professionally trained technicians inspect each air duct and remove any debris, rodent droppings, dust and mold present.

The Environmental Protection Agency suggest air duct cleaning if:

• Visible mold is present in the air duct or other components of your heating and cooling system.
• Air ducts show signs of rodents or insects. Signs may include tracks, droppings or carcasses.
• Air ducts are clogged with excessive amount of dust and debris, typically made evident by the release of dust, debris and other particles from the registers.

If you experience any of these signs in your Woodbridge VA or Oakton VA home, contact the mold removal and mold remediation specialists at Envirotex today.
