We start with a visual inspection including signs of water intrusion, leaks, or standing water. For mold to grow, it requires a water source. Areas in your home or basement with high moisture and humidity are perfect environments for all types of mold to grow. When we spot mold spores, we collect these spores and send them off to a certified lab for identification. Our collection methods include air samples, swab samples, and bulk samples. The lab also does a black mold test. Depending on the mold species, such as black mold, it can be disastrous to your home and your family. Knowledge is good, so we want to be sure your home is not housing a health hazard.
