How Mold Growth Can Ruin Flooring
Flooring is critical in tying a room together and making the theme prevalent. If something is wrong with the flooring or is damaged, the entire room suffers. As it is the lowest of the materials on a given floor in your home, this system tends to be the most impacted by water damage and subsequent mold growth. Some materials are more susceptible than others. Some of the most common elements installed in modern homes include:
Carpet – Carpet is possibly one of the most popular flooring options in homes and businesses, and its appearance and feel span a considerable range. Its absorbency and porous composition make a fiber-based flooring style like this, and the padding and subflooring underneath are heavily susceptible to water and mold damage. Synthetic materials typically are impacted less by water damage and microbial growth.
Hardwood/Vinyl – Plank flooring can also be heavily impacted by moisture, allowing a pocket of dampness to exist just below the outermost layer of the material and create an ideal condition for mold and mildew development.
Glue-Down Linoleum – This is a popular option for many kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms. If moisture penetrates the outermost layer and the subflooring, the result can be mold growth and a need for remediation.
