A little leak isn’t something to ignore. Although you might not notice immediate water damage, mold growth and bacterial growth can begin within 24 – 48 hours of a moisture intrusion. Damp houses have been proven beyond any doubt to cause respiratory illnesses, and a host of other illnesses, too. “Moisture in homes has been identified again and again to be associated with respiratory problems and other detrimental health to people within homes,” said Dr. Richard Shaugnessy, director of the Clean Air Program at the University of Tulsa. “There’s mold, there’s bacteria, and the dampness is more conducive to having more pests in the home.” “Along with that, dust mites are more inclined to be in a home with higher humidity and moisture. There’s a whole host of agents that may be responsible for the health effects related to moisture” he said. Here are the top 4 reasons to nip moisture and dampness in your home in the bud: · Bacteria: Moisture is the prime breeding ground of bacteri...

Why do we have moisture stains and weeds on the body of buildings? What was supposed to have been done that was not done? We do not give attention to construction details in this part of the world. There is what we call rising damp, especially when building in a water-prone environment, where the level of water to the surface of the ground is very close. We call it high water table level. It is easier for the water to rise through a process we call capillary action into the fabric of the wall. The wall will now absorb the water and it will keep rising up to the space where the people are living and because when the water is in the wall reef, the process of drying up and taking up water simultaneously will give rise to what we call algae growth, either externally or internally, causing green coloration on the wall because of dampness. That will give room to what we call sick building syndrome. A situation where when you are in a house you feel like the heat is so much that you ca...

HOW TO SAFELY REMOVE ASBESTOS FROM YOUR PROPERTY . Published: 23/07/2017 Up until the late 1990’s, asbestos was often used in home and commercial construction projects. Known for its extreme fire resistance and ability to insulate, asbestos was later found to be quite dangerous, and as a result, is no longer allowed in new construction. In fact, asbestos is related to so many health risks that it now must be removed from homes and other locations where it exists. Once airborne and inhaled, asbestos particles can cause mesothelioma, a form of lung cancer among other lung-related diseases. This is why it is absolutely essential to avoid disturbing any asbestos you may come across in your home or commercial property. Instead, it needs to be properly remediated, which should only be performed by a company qualified in asbestos removal in Nigeria like Curtis Construction.
