Mold growth in commercial spaces can be a silent yet serious issue, affecting both the health of those who work in the space and the building’s overall condition. MRC Restoration recently completed a mold inspection at a local accounting office, uncovering some concerning results that had gone unnoticed by the building owner. The inspection revealed a hidden mold problem that might be contributing to the health issues experienced by office workers. The Mold Issue: What MRC Restoration Found During our inspection, MRC Restoration identified significant mold growth in several hidden areas of the building, including behind walls and in poorly ventilated storage spaces. Mold thrives in damp, dark conditions, and without proper air circulation and regular inspections, it can become a serious problem. In this particular case, the mold was not visible on surfaces, which is why the building owner was unaware of its presence. However, office workers had been experiencing persistent symptoms such as coughing, headaches, and irritation—common signs of exposure to mold spores.
