It goes without saying, the areas of your home that get constant use are going to deteriorate the fastest and eventually no longer serve your needs. Common issues include mold and mildew, particularly here in Florida, as well as worn-out fixtures, peeling, stains, and outdated aesthetics.

Unfortunately, mold is a sneaky problem that affects many Florida homeowners. Mold loves humidity and that's one thing we have plenty of here in Orlando and Tampa. The best way to eliminate mold growth is to control the moisture in your bathroom.
Every bathroom should have an effective way of removing heat and humidity. For example if you are seeing spots of mold on your ceiling, that might mean your bathroom fan isn't working properly.
