A musty or earthy smell is often a sign that there is mold. But not all molds create definitive odor. A small leak under your kitchen sink can create a big problem.
You should regularly look for signs of moisture in your home or office space. Unfortunately these signs could be hidden: the previous owner, occupant or property manager may have replaced part of cabinet or have painted over the problem.Minor or hidden water damage means that a leak has been present for a long time, even before you have become aware of it. That means that it was never been taken care of.
Small Water Leak… Big Mold Removal Problem…
As a home or business owner you should check the plumbing behind your water heater, air conditioning system, refrigerator, dishwasher, washing machine or any hidden plumbing under a kitchen or bathroom sink cabinetry regularly to make sure there are no leaks.
