We also offer indoor air quality assessments with surface sampling and air quality testing for mold, black mold and toxic mold. We will come take air samples to determine if your indoor mold spore levels are higher than they should be. If you are concerned with your indoor air quality, air testing will provide the necessary answers to your mold-related questions.
A thorough visual inspection is the starting point for every residential or commercial mold assessment. Your mold inspector will be looking for conditions that are conducive to fungal activity and can cause & sustain mold growth.
Digitally documenting our findings is the easiest way for your mold inspector to relay his or her findings. Our inspectors will take pictures of all the areas of concern so you can see exactly what we saw during your mold inspection.
Thermal imaging cameras (or infrared cameras) allow us to detect temperature differences in (and often behind) building materials. Why is this important? Because damp or wet building materials are almost always cooler than dry materials – and it is the temperature difference that the infrared camera detects. It is an invaluable tool in the detection of moisture sources that cause mold growth.
Since mold needs moisture to develop and thrive, finding that source of moisture is very important. Moisture mapping basically allows us to locate building materials that are damp or wet enough to support mold growth. Testing for moisture also helps us determine if water leaks have been resolved or if they are actively leaking and can locate where water damage starts and stops.
Your mold inspector may need need to conduct indoor air quality testing by collecting air samples to determine if your indoor mold spore levels are higher than they should be. If indoor spore counts are higher than outside, this means that your indoor air has been compromised by mold and mildew.
Is it just water staining, or is it mold? Surface testing with mold swabs or bio tape lifts will answer those questions. In many cases, surface sampling isn’t necessary if mold growth is visibly obvious. If the fungal growth is visibly apparent, then the industry protocol is removal following specific mold remediation standards. However, a sample can still be collected to provide scientific proof that confirms the presence of mold. This might be helpful in real estate transactions, landlord-tenant disputes and more.
Within 48 hours after your home mold inspection, your inspector will compile all of his or her findings and generate an easy to understand mold inspection report.
If requested, your mold inspector will design a mold remediation plan specific to your property for your specific mold-related issues. Your scope of work will include cleanup suggestions as well as preventative measures that are necessary to keep mold from returning.
Also referred to as clearance testing. This is a mold inspection after the remediation is complete. Since we’re removing a bio hazard, It’s important to know that the job was done right – the first time. PRV Testing will determine if cleanup efforts were successful or if further cleanup is necessary.
