Visit us at www.IndoorRestore.com or by calling us toll-free at 1-877-264-6133 or email to info@indoorrestore.com. Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) from mold contamination can lead to health problems for those susceptible or from overexposure. Toxic molds (some are called “black mold”) can grow wherever a suitable environment exists for growth. It is important to know if mold is present in your home or office, whether or not there is visible mold or a musty odor/smell. At IndoorRestore Environmental Services, we can provide a complete inspection of your property or areas of concern to help pinpoint mold problems. If you chose so, we can also remove any mold problems and restore your property to a like-new state. Water damage, mold contamination, asbestos, lead, and other issues are all handled by our organization.

Loooooooooopdy Looo! asked:


I have mold in my bathroom and i know that mixing bleach and vinegar makes a toxic gas but is it alright to use vinegar on the surface (sprayed on) then an hour later scrub down the bathroom with some bleach? Or should i just use one and which is better to use?

How much does it cost to mitigate mold in an attic?

MacJedi asked:


We are buying a house and the home inspection showed a lot of mold (not the toxic kind, but still mold) in the attic. Has anyone had this kind of mold cleaned up? What kind of expense are we looking at? I need to decide within 24 hours if I’m backing out of the sale, yikes!! Thanks!!!
We know the cause ( a leaky roof that was fixed last year, and improper ventilation and insulation, which will be fixed). We also know it’s not toxic, but I am concerned about allergies – not for those of us who will be living there, as none of us are allergic to mold – but my other kids are sensitive to it.

I don’t want to do the work myself; I want to hire it done but am just wondering what a ballpark figure might be for this kind of work.

Do you use pine or cedar?

Folks, the prob,em with soft woods (NOT Aspen) is that the urine mixes with the aromatic oils and creates a chemical reaction that is toxic. It is bad for any animal that has to stand in it. Kiln dried pine is *supposed* to be safe but I for one would not trust it. I don’t think you can fix cedar to be safe. Corncob is a bad idea because dried corn/cob can harbor a mold that is also toxic to pets.
this is a question
i asked a question, didn’t i?
