Mold and Mildew

Maricopa Carpet Cleaners are masters at getting rid of mold and mildew. You may think that mold is only for bread, but don’t be fooled! Mold can be found in your carpets, rugs, and even fabric furniture covers. Oftentimes you may not be able to detect mold and mildew in your carpets, as it may be well disguised or deep down in the fibers.

Let’s say you are watching TV one morning on the couch and you spill your orange juice. You may think that you’ve cleaned most of it up, but some of the liquid went behind the couch into an area you cannot see or reach! So you leave it there, and over time, mold and mildew begins to grow. You may not even know it, but your carpet is now emitting harmful mold residue that is a hazard to your health and wellbeing. When you hire carpet cleaners for mold and mildew removal, we make sure to cover all of your carpet surfaces, even under your furniture, so that no section of your carpet is left uncleaned, unturned, and not taken care of!

Water damage is another liquid that can fester in your carpet fibers and cause mold and mildew to grow. If left untreated, water damage can cause mold and mildew to grow in your carpets and from there is can spread. Mold not only looks bad on your carpet if you can see it, but it smells bad, too. Having a stale, moldy smelling carpet is a surefire way to not enjoy your beautiful home.

If you have children, they’re likely to be crawling all over the floor- the same goes for pets! If you have moldy carpets, your pets and children are crawling around in, and breathing in, mold and mildew. This is not only unsanitary, but a danger to their health. Mold and mildew cleaning is key in maintaining a healthy home- if your carpets are healthy and mold free, so will your family be!

If you move into a home that has been poorly maintained by the previous owner, chances are there will be mold and mildew stains in your home that will need serious attention. Garage floors that have carpet are great targets for mold, as well as carpets near the bathroom or kitchen where you can find moisture. Having your carpets routinely cleaned, even if you don’t think you have mold or mildew, is a good idea. Sometimes you may not even know the mold is there, but if you leave your carpets uncleaned long enough, it is not only likely that it will grow, but if it is already there, it will continue to grow.

Mold can also grow on the flooring underneath your carpet. We are equipped to remove, and then re lay down, your carpets in order to get rid of the dangerous mold underneath. You need a professional mold and mildew cleaner to properly remove your carpets without doing damage to your floor. From there, we can clean the mold and mildew in the floorboards, and even replace them if they are in such bad condition that they can not be cleaned.

You can work on your own to prevent mold by making sure your home is not overly moist or humid- that is one of the most known ways that mold and mildew can grow in your carpets. Give us a call today to clean your mold and mildew from your carpets! (480) 725-2555
