Exterior Paint Problems in Georgia

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]It’s easy to forget how much weather the outside of your house handles to keep you safe and dry. With all the rain, sun, and temperature changes in Georgia, your home’s exterior goes through a lot. Sometimes, this can cause issues like mold, mildew, and algae growing on your house.

How to Spot Mold on Your Home

Mold loves dark, damp areas. Walk around your home and look for places that are shaded by trees or other structures. Mold can look like fuzzy spots in colors like green, white, or black. Mildew is a bit different; it’s usually powdery and shows up on painted surfaces. Sometimes, you might even smell a musty odor before you see it. That’s a good sign you should check for mold or mildew.

What Causes Mold to Grow?

Mold mostly grows in wet conditions. The spores, which are tiny particles, float in the air and can land on your home. If your paint is cracked, you have water leaks, or your home’s outside is too humid, the mold spores can stick and start growing.
In Georgia, where it’s often humid, it’s especially important to fix small issues like leaks or damaged siding right away. If you don’t, mold can spread from outside to inside your home, especially in places like bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens where there’s a lot of moisture. Mold inside your home can cause health problems like allergies and other serious illnesses.
