Mold is everywhere, but elevated levels in your property can cause serious health problems. Even if the mold is non-toxic, it still needs to be removed because the mold spores will still be present. If your property has a mold problem we have the knowledge and instrumentation to find it.

"Still waiting on the lab results but the inspector was very polite,informative , honest and thorough."

When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it’s mold in your home, school, place of work or apartment there are many factors to consider. Are you going to be involved in a Mold Lawsuit? Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? Will you be seeking medical damages? Will you need expert witnesses? If so, what kind? Do you just want to test to be sure your environment is safe? Do you need Post Mold Remediation Testing to ensure a good job was done? These and other factors are questions which need to be answered before any environmental testing starts. It’s important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages & property damages require different environmental tests to prove your case in court. Tests that a common or inexperienced mold inspector would not

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Usually, when you have mold, you will notice that your indoor air quality isn’t what it should be. You might notice dank odors, for instance, coming from your carpet, and it may feel damp or spongy. Or you may find that your family members are showing more allergy symptoms than usual, from coughing and sneezing to itchy, watery eyes.

And, of course, if you’ve recently experienced flooding or you live in a particularly humid environment, that’s a good sign you’re at risk for mold growth.

Asbestos causes cancer but the actual sickness from asbestos ingestion is asbestosis, which presents as shortness of breath, persistent dry cough, chest tightness, weight loss, and dry crackling sounds from the lungs when breathing. These symptoms are caused by the asbestos scarring and inflaming the lungs. These symptoms can also be caused by dozens of other issues but if you know there is asbestos in your home, have someone perform an inspection.

Any unexplained smell in your house should be investigated. However, some home odors are "red flag" worrisome because they pose immediate health and safety risks. Odors should be taken seriously when accompanied by headaches, nausea, or lightheadedness. If you smell an egg-like aroma, this is probably natural gas. You should leave the home immediately, and  contact your gas company.  

Pressure-treated wood offers some protection from the elements but doesn’t protect against mold. However, if you spot mold growing on pressure-treated wood, it doesn’t indicate rot or an interior fungal infection—the treatment process ensures that the mold stays on the exterior. Keep the wood dry, but if you spot some mold, remove it immediately and clean the area.

You should not run an air conditioner with mold because it could spread the spores throughout your home. Mold exposure can trigger several health problems, including coughing, wheezing, sneezing, itchy eyes, and a sore throat. Living in a moldy house can also increase your risk of other illnesses, including sinus infections, pneumonia, and bronchitis.
