        "text": "Preventing mold growth after water damage relies on rapid and thorough drying of all affected materials and areas, typically within 24-48 hours. This includes using professional-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to reduce moisture and humidity. Additionally, affected porous materials that cannot be dried completely may need to be removed. Hometelligent Inc. utilizes advanced moisture detection tools to ensure all hidden moisture is addressed, a key step in mold prevention.",
