Preventing Mold in your Naples, Florida Home

Naples, Florida, enjoys a humid, subtropical climate that makes preventing mold growth in your home difficult. Innovative Construction Solutions provides measures that will seal your home, check for leaks, and even manage the moisture level within the home. No moisture equals no mold.

Preventing Mold in your Naples, Florida Home Trusting the team here at Innovative Construction Solutions to handle your construction needs relies on our extensive experience and abilities. We operate on behalf of homeowners and professional builders, providing a range of services, including the inspection and remediation of any issues that could lead to water or moisture permeation. In addition, the level of expertise we provide is such that we also offer analysis, guidance, and expert testimony to legal and insurance professionals.

Inspecting for Mold-Causing Interior Humidity and Moisture

Mold within the home generally stems from uncontrolled moisture within the home. Techs from Innovative Construction Solutions use advanced technical implements to inspect structures for leaks or breaks in coverage that could lead to moisture penetration. Some of our testing measures include:

Air and water infiltration testing
Moisture mapping
Humidity and temperature readings
Infrared readings
Roof inspections
Mechanical systems evaluations

When your home’s building envelope is intact and effective, moisture will not penetrate and allow mold to develop.

Why Mold Presence Matters

The Health of Residents – Mold and its cousin mildew create significant respiratory health issues. These fungi grow when exposed to moisture, reproducing by spores that can be inhaled and spread throughout the home. Depending on the type of mold, the ensuing health issues can be as mild as sneezing and congestion and as severe as death.

Structural Damage – When mold and mildew grow within a home, the damage can be extensive. From sheetrock to flooring and beyond, you may have to hire professionals to come in and remediate the problem. Unfortunately, while we at Innovative Construction Solutions provide a wide range of inspection and construction services, we do not offer mold remediation or cleanup.

Simple Steps to Keep Your Home Mold-Free

Eliminate moisture in the home – think ventilation, immediate cleanup, etc.
Dry clothing ASAP.
Clean the bathroom regularly with bleach-containing cleansers.
Limit the number of houseplants you collect.
Immediately address any leaks or gaps in coverage.
Line open areas below the home and maintain ventilation.
Limit the use of humidifiers if you see condensation.
Employ exhaust fans placed in your bathrooms and kitchen.
In mold-prone areas, invest in dehumidifiers, and clean them regularly.
Invest in a concrete barrier on concrete floors.
Book regular testing and remediation from the experts here at Innovative Construction Solutions to evaluate humidity levels, prevent moisture intrusion and protect your home.

Kudos to all that waterproofed our home during the exterior renovation. Despite being on the beach, with Hurricane Irma’s 130 MPH winds, and many windows and doors which we did not have a chance to cover, no water came in the house! Also, it appears that we suffered no structural damage of any kind. Thanks again for your attention to detail and quality work!

Dave & Brenda Pelizzon

Just a quick note to thanks you guys for building a great house for Debbie and me. We came through Hurricane Irma in great shape. We were reflecting how fortunate we were to have such a professional construction team. Thanks for your time and patience in building a truly beautiful well constructed home.

Ray & Debbie Guerin

Your team resolved quite a few problems in my previously renovated 1950s built home. They resolved everything from air conditioning issues to insulation problems to gas and water leaks. They fixed problems other people could not even find.

As new homeowners in Naples we had scheduled projects – generator install, gutters, as well as unscheduled events – the main AC unit breaking down with a difficult fix. Dave Raffa handled it all in a very calm, professional and extremely competent manner. Dave is truly outstanding – thorough, responsive, knowledgeable, positive, professional, great attention to detail – all in all he is a real pleasure to work with. Bryce Alexis was our initial contact and he was terrific. We are impressed with the entire Innovative Team!
