With hurricane season in effect, mold is a concern that haunts many Florida residents. The summer months bring elevated humidity levels, which in turn increase the potential for mold growth in our homes. Mold can become present in your home or business in many ways: flooding, leaky roofs, plumbing leaks, burst pipes, even rain or sprinkler water against the house. Sometimes, you can see discoloration on the walls or ceiling, or you see your floors have warped. Maybe, there is a musty odor in certain rooms of the house or condensation on the walls.



Water intrusion can lead to mold growth and if the growth is extensive, some people may become sensitized to high spore levels and develop allergies or other health problems. Gone unchecked, mold growth can damage furnishings, clothes and shoes, as well as the structural elements in your house.



It is recognized that exposure to indoor mold is not healthy for anyone. ER Environmental Group can help with locating the source of the water intrusion as well as the mold that has developed from it.



Erik Rosenstein, CEO and Sr. Environmental Consultant of ER Environmental Group has the knowledge and experience it takes takes to identify and treat mold contamination. Erik Rosenstein has a Bachelor's Degree in Biology from the university of Tampa, a Master's Degree in Environmental Risk Assessment from the University of New South Wales in Sydney Australia, and a Master's Degree in Environmental Law from the University of Sydney Law School in Sydney, Australia. He has worked with the Australian Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with testing for biological and chemical environmental pollutants, and has been in the mold industry for the past 4 years.



As there are no real standards or regulations for the mold testing industry, many people with no real knowledge are becoming mold inspectors. Would you trust your health and that of your family to someone with no understanding of the underlying causes for mold problems, or would you rather trust a real expert?



ER Environmental Group provides mold testing services for residential and commercial properties in the areas of Dade County, Broward County and Palm Beach County, FL.
