When occupants in your home start complaining about their allergies blowing out of proportion and other respiratory symptoms, mold could be lurking somewhere. Mold can be invisible, making it a bit tricky to locate. And this is where mold testing and inspection is needed.
While mold testing cannot tell you how much mold you've been exposed to, it can:
Mold exposure can bring respiratory infections that nobody wants. While it might not affect some people, it can be bad for sensitive individuals. These people may experience headaches, coughs, skin irritation, nasal congestion, and itching eyes.
Mold testing and inspection can prevent all these unfortunate events from happening by letting you know what the real situation is so you can take care of it for good. A mold inspector will test your home or building for mold. And if the sampled tests confirm the presence of mold, they will prepare a mold remediation plan for you.
Mold spores are always lurking in the air. They just require favorable conditions for them to grow and multiply. Elevated mold growth levels can affect your indoor air quality, thus aggravating allergies, asthma, and other respiratory symptoms.
A mold specialist can test your indoor air quality to determine if it's compromised. What's more, he'll take samples from household surfaces to determine if you're dealing with mold.
Health is not the only thing mold can damage. Mold can flourish on any organic material provided the humidity is sufficient. It can grow on wood, paper, dust, carpet, insulation, and upholstery. Once it forms a large colony, it gradually destroys all these materials. To make it worse, mold can travel in all sorts of ways; through HVACs, open windows, and doors.
Scheduling a mold testing and inspection will reduce the risk of mold destroying your structures and furnishings.
This mold confirmation method involves our specialists inspecting your home or building, looking for visible signs of mold and water damage. No special equipment is used other than a quality flashlight and apparatus needed to access some areas. If necessary, we may use an infrared camera. If we find no evidence of mold contamination using non-intrusive mold inspection, we'll proceed to taking samples for mold testing.
