Read the guide →Why these topics
Huntsville averages 54.29 inches of rain a year, with the wettest months in winter and early spring, and summer dew points near 66–70°F (NOAA 1991–2020 normals). That mix of wet seasons and muggy summers keeps moisture, and mold, a common question for homeowners across Madison and Limestone counties.
The guides above answer questions we see often: whether Alabama licenses mold companies (it does not, according to ADPH), whether you need testing, what to do in the first two days after water damage, and what renters, landlords, buyers and sellers should know. They are written to help you ask better questions, not to replace a professional's on-site look or a lawyer's advice. For health concerns, talk to your doctor.
