Signs to Check in Hundred Oaks Homes

In Hundred Oaks, the early signs of mold are the same ones worth knowing anywhere in East Baton Rouge 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. Any one of them in a Hundred Oaks home in East Baton Rouge Parish is worth a call, and two or more together are a strong reason to describe what you found rather than waiting to see whether it clears up.

What the signs do not tell you on their own is the cause, and in a Hundred Oaks property in East Baton Rouge Parish the cause decides the work.

New arrivals to Hundred Oaks should check sinks, toilets, the water heater and the rooms underneath them in the first weeks, since leaks โ€” and the mold that follows โ€” often show up soon after moving in.
