Mold & Mildew Everywhere - Whats the Fuss?

Insurers across the country are dealing with tens of thousands of claims regarding mold. The explosion in claims are because of the increased media attention in recent years.

Insurance companies must respond quickly when policyholders report water losses because delay invites the growth of mold, increase the cost of a claim and is poor customer service.
