Frequently Asked Questions About Mold Testing
What are the signs I might have a mold problem?
Common signs include a persistent musty odor, visible mold growth (which can be black, green, or white), water stains on walls or ceilings, and experiencing allergic reactions like sneezing, runny nose, or itchy eyes only when at home.
What's involved in a mold inspection?
A mold inspection starts with a thorough visual assessment of the property to identify signs of past or present moisture intrusion. We use tools like moisture meters and infrared cameras to find hidden moisture. If needed, we can then take air or surface samples for lab analysis.
What is the difference between air sampling and surface sampling?
Air sampling measures the concentration and types of mold spores in the air you breathe, which is useful for identifying hidden mold. Surface sampling involves taking a swab or tape lift from a visible substance to confirm if it is mold.
How long does it take to get the lab results?
Lab results for mold samples are typically available within 2-3 business days after the samples are collected. We will provide you with the full lab report and a clear explanation of the findings.
If mold is found, do you perform the removal?
No, as inspectors, we maintain our objectivity by only identifying and testing for mold. Performing remediation would be a conflict of interest. If mold is confirmed, we will recommend you consult with a licensed mold remediation specialist.
Can I bundle mold testing with a regular home inspection?
Yes, absolutely. Our Premium Inspection package includes mold and air quality testing at a discounted rate. You can also add it as a standalone service to any other inspection package.
