Ann Arbor Climate Creates Perfect Conditions for Mold
Here’s a reality check about living in Ann Arbor: The climate here practically invites mold to make itself at home. Summers are humid with levels around 70 percent or more. Spring and fall? Rain, rain, and more rain. Winters are below freezing, so this causes condensation problems as warm indoor air contacts cold surfaces. Add in the fact that Ann Arbor is in an area with high water tables and near rivers and lakes, and you’ve got a recipe for constant issues with moisture.
Mold requires three things to grow: moisture, organic material on which to feed (such as wood, drywall, or fabric), and the right temperature range. Ann Arbor offers all three in high volume. Your property may have excellent bones, but if moisture gets in through a leaky roof, a cracked foundation, or poor ventilation, the mold spores that are already floating in the air will settle in and begin multiplying within 24 to 48 hours.
Professional mold remediation Ann Arbor services understand these local climate challenges. We’re not just cleaning mold. We’re trying to address the things that caused it in the first place, which is the environment.
