Mildew

Mildew has in recent years become as much a health issue as an eyesore issue. Mildew growth on a buildings exterior surfaces can enter the building. The spores enter through exposed soffits and roof vents into the warm, stale attic environment. The mold spores then travel into the structures walls and can go undetected for years. Breathing and other health issues have been reported in buildings with mold and mildew infestations.

Local homeowners associations are becoming more diligent in addressing unsightly mildew in their communities. Violation notices from HOA boards are continuously informing homeowners of the by-laws that address each homes  exterior upkeep. These letters generally address mildew growing on a structures roof, walls and concrete surfaces.
