Heavy Rain Causes Mold Outbreak in Mission Valley Home?

We are trained and certified to restore mold damage in San Diego.

All the record-breaking rain we’ve received this season has encouraged many mold outbreaks in Mission Valley. Some residents were surprised to find out they had roof leaks or siding damage that allowed water to enter their homes and cause mold to colonize.

Our local Mission Valley East team is a trusted leader in mold remediation services. We have the training, equipment, and experience to restore homes and businesses compromised by mold outbreaks.

Roof leaks can encourage mold growth. As water infiltrates through the roof, it can seep into various structural components of the building, such as ceiling materials, insulation, and wall cavities. This moisture provides a direct source of hydration for mold spores and saturates porous materials, creating the perfect conditions for mold to thrive.

When roof leaks go unnoticed for extended periods, moisture can accumulate and worsen the problem. The dark, damp environment created by the leak provides the perfect breeding ground for mold spores to germinate and form colonies. Mold feeds on the organic materials present in roofing materials, such as wood or insulation, and serves as a nutrient source for mold, accelerating its growth.
