• Can eliminating moisture kill mold?

  
  Eliminating moisture can halt mold growth since it requires damp conditions. However, it does not necessarily kill existing mold. Proper mold remediation is needed to eliminate mold from its source.

• Can I handle water cleanup and damage repair, or do I need a professional?

  
  Small, contained areas might be manageable with DIY methods. However, extensive water damage requires professional intervention, especially in cases involving category 2 or 3 water.

• How much time does it take before water starts impacting a foundation’s integrity?

  
  Water can start affecting a foundation’s integrity quickly, especially with prolonged exposure. For example, flooding, or rapid snowmelt can produce a sudden influx of water and saturate the soil, leading to increased stress on the foundation and causing immediate damage.

• How much time does it take before water damage becomes noticeable?

  
  Water damage can become noticeable within minutes to days, depending on the source and extent of the water intrusion and the affected materials. Signs like water spots, swelling materials, and odors can appear rapidly, especially on porous surfaces.
