If you have been exposed to toxic mold you may endure chronic physical and mental issues. Health issues include but are not limited to: throat irritation, bloody nose, itchy eyes, headaches, skin irritation, cough and wheezing, foggy brain, confusion, depression, anxiety attack and nasal stuffiness.
California Health & Safety Code §17920.3 illustrates that a building or portion thereof is deemed substandard if there is “Visible mold growth, as determined by a health officer or a code enforcement officer, as defined in Section 829.5 of the Penal Code, excluding the presence of mold that is minor and found on surfaces that can accumulate moisture as part of their properly functioning and intended use.”
For that reason, it is vital to immediately hire counsel and notify health or code enforcement if and when there is visible mold growth in your home.
Step 1: Notify your landlord in writing of the issue.
Step 2: Take photographs and videos of the mold.
Step 3: Maintain a journal of all issues/problems that have been reported and/or have existed during your tenancy.
Step 4: File a formal complaint with the Department of Public Health
Step 5: Hiring a Certified Inspector to obtain an air test for level of mold.
