Mold Removal & Remediation
ServPro out of Ocala. Great job. I feel your pain. Two weeks after closing we discovered a $35k hidden mold problem. The Seller's completely lied on the Seller's Disclosure. One specific ques. is "Has there ever been any water leaks" and they checked the no box. They had their hot water heater blow up on them while they were on vacation in 2013 creating this mold issue. The Seller had Servpro give them an estimate and to save $400 they went with a drywall company who stated "treated for mold" no further explaination. We contacted ServPro Ocala and they came to the house with the 2013 quote and pictures in hand. In that quote ServPro was "concerned that the mold had penetrated to the back side of the master bathroom wall. We found it when the cabinets, sinks, and large glued on mirrors were removed. The mold was also found covering the complete inside if the A/C system to include 3 feet up into the fresh air return. We will be suing the Seller. We have plenty of evidence that was left behind. Just an F.Y.I. by Fl. law mold issues must be remediated by a certified mold remediation specialist (not just a drywall company) to include testing prior to and after remediation so the home can be certified mold free. Good Luck
