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

Cork floors are naturally antimicrobial, which helps increase their resistance to mold and mildew growth. But mold and mildew can still grow on cork floors if you install them in a humid room or if they are exposed to moisture, like a spilled glass of water that you don’t clean up quickly. It’s important to keep cork out of high-moisture areas like bathrooms and clean up spills as soon as they happen to avoid mold growth.

Even though a thin layer of drywall may separate you from mold, it can still affect you. First, left untreated, that mold will continue to grow and spread throughout your home. Even if there weren’t the risk of spread, a patch of mold behind the drywall can still make you sick. Family members with allergies, asthma, and other respiratory conditions may be the most affected, but anyone can contract a cough or infection from the presence of mold—even behind drywall.

Mold thrives in wet and humid conditions, and the bathroom can often be an ideal place for it to grow. If you are worried about mold, it's a good idea to hire a local mold inspector to inspect your bathroom. 

How you handle the mold depends on the extent of the issue. If it's on the caulk or other surface, a deep cleaning with mold-killing products such as vinegar or bleach may be sufficient. For a large infestation, you'll most likely need professional mold remediation.

It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.

Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.

Dehumidifiers do not directly remove mold or spores from the air. However, by lowering the room’s humidity, spores are less likely to flourish when landing on surfaces.
