Signs to Check in Greensburg Homes
In Greensburg, the early signs of mold are the same ones worth knowing anywhere in St. Helena Parish: visible growth, a musty smell, a damp patch, peeling paint, mold after a leak or flooding, condensation where ventilation is poor, or growth in an attic or crawl space.
