Hidden Mold in Your Home? Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Ignore It

When it comes to mold, what you can’t see can still hurt you.

Sure, some mold problems are obvious — the black or green patches creeping up the bathroom wall or under a sink. But mold isn’t always out in the open. It can quietly grow beneath wallpaper, behind baseboards, inside walls, or even in your HVAC system — all without any visible warning signs.

And unfortunately, hidden mold isn’t harmless.

“Molds have the potential to cause respiratory issues, health problems, and allergic reactions such as sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash,” said former EPA Administrator Christie Whitman.

For homeowners, that means mold can impact more than just your property — it can affect your family’s health, too.

Why Testing Is So Important

A simple mold test now could save you thousands of dollars (and a major headache) later. The truth is that the only way to know if mold is present — and what kind it is — is through professional testing.

At J&C, we make it easy. We offer both swab and air testing to check for mold, even in places you can’t see. Once we collect samples, you’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-understand report from an EPA-certified lab that tells you exactly what’s going on.
