Madison, WI mold remediation questions

Why do Madison homes have mold remediation problems?

How much does mold remediation cost?

Typically $500–$6,000 depending on the size and location of the affected area; whole-home or HVAC contamination costs more. Always fix the moisture source too, or the mold returns.

Is mold dangerous?

It can trigger allergies and breathing problems, and some molds are toxic. Areas larger than about 10 square feet should be handled by a professional using containment.
