Broken ventilation in shower led to serious mold issue

Anna, a homeowner in Murfreesboro, TN, didn’t realize her master bathroom had no working exhaust fan. She was showering daily in a sealed space, and over time started noticing black speckles on the drywall and a pink film on the ceiling. She also started experiencing health symptoms but didn’t immediately connect the dots. When the discoloration didn’t go away, she reached out to Claro for an inspection.

Our air test came back with extremely high levels of basidiospores—mold spores often linked to wood rot or drywall decay from persistent moisture.

This kind of mold can be dangerous if left untreated, and Anna was understandably worried it would cost her thousands to fix. Fortunately, she was able to use Claro’s 0% interest loan option to move forward with treatment right away.

She fixed her vent and we treated her home with our EPA Safe dry fog system, which didn't require demolition or moving out.

Just over a week later, the post-treatment air test came back completely clean and within days, she reported feeling healthier and more at ease in her home. She later told us, “This company truly cares about safely and inexpensively removing the toxicity in homes,” and shared that the process was both affordable and stress-free.

We’re grateful Anna trusted us and that her story might help others catch mold issues early—especially if you’ve been showering in a bathroom with poor or no ventilation.
