The benefit of renting is you can get the heck out. After storms like this, mold is absolutely going to happen. And it’s extremely expensive to remediate. I had a hole in a drainage pipe next to my foundation cause a small amount of mold. Nothing was covered and it cost me almost ten grand to install a new drainage system, remediate the small amount of mold and repair the small amount of damaged wood flooring. I live in a town home. Plus I had to go through the process of getting HOA approval. Renting is looking more and more attractive these days. It’s always something when you own.
the trailer man in the red shirt sounds like smoker's cough/emphysema . Put that cigarette money into a savings and he'd have a nice emergency fund to get out. Add breathing in mold and he'll be a Hospice patient soon. at 02.44 next to the bananas and his scratch off ticket is his lighter and a carton of cigarettes. I was a Hospice RN for 17 years, I can hear emphysema from down the block
What? Homes that have flooding or water damage will develop mold quickly. And many people nowhere near the water or flood zones had flooding from Milton! We got multiple feet of rain! Don’t be dense
If there’s power, try to use blowers and dehumidifiers. Mold remediation isn’t that complicated, just a bit of work. Don’t wait on “the professionals”. Get to work.
@@Beth_1982-h2s I was a restoration and mold mediation specialist for 20 years, and made tons of money doing it. I’ll take my training and experience over some bullish!t bot on RU-vid. Keep spreading misinformation and I’ll report every single one of you.
First thing to do is get things dry. Pull carpet/padding and extract as much standing water as possible. Then place as many blowers as you can throughout the house, providing there’s power. Place at least one dehumidifier in the house. Two would be better. Set the air conditioning low and let things dry for a few days. That’s 70% of it. Then the house can be treated for mold and whatever bacteria there may be.
