The other day I noticed a small black spot on the wall of our bathroom. I didn’t think much about it—figured it was a weird stain or a bit of discoloration in the paint.

That was until a friend came over and told me the horror story of the little black spot in their home, which turned out to be mold.

I had heard stories of people with mold in their house. Honestly, I didn’t think they could be true, so when I called Atlanta Mold and Cleaning to come take a look, I was surprised by what a BIG problem my tiny black spot was.

Actually, mold in homes in the South is a pretty common problem. I quickly figured this out when I was searching for Atlanta Mold Removal Services. There are a ton of businesses in the area that specialize in removing mold from your home or business – some of them good good, some bad.

After a lot of research and phone calls, I decided on Atlanta Mold and Cleaning to help me with my mold problem. This company is the real thing. Before they did any work in my house, they did a thorough inspection of my little black spot, and where it might be coming from.

They even took air samples and a little sample of the spot on my wall. As it turns out, not every black spot is mold or something you need to worry about. But they want to make sure that each and every customer gets the best information possible.

My black spot really was mold. We discovered during their investigation that between my love for really long, hot showers and not using the vent fan AND a small leak behind my bathtub, I had created the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow.

Atlanta Mold and Cleaning helped me repair the leak, and then got to work drying the area and removing the mold. Now, my home is mold-free, I have a new vent fan in my bathroom, and…and I feel like maybe soon I might be living happily ever…
