Hello BP community,

I recently purchased my second house, which I am in the process of rehabbing to rent. We had a mold inspection done and there seems to be mold and high moisture content in 2 bedrooms, the kitchen and bathroom areas. I am debating whether to let my general contractor handle the remediation or hire a licensed mold remediation company. The mold inspector said that the contractor could handle it but the home would need to pass inspection in the end. We are addressing the source of the issue, which seems to be blocked weep holes, high brush piled around the periphery of the home, possibly prior leaky kitchen pipes and some holes in the brick. 

What are your suggestions? Should I go with a professional mold remediation company just to be safe? And if so, do you have recommendations for a good company in Houston? I have never dealt with a mold issue befoe so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
