"Jeremiah came out and tested the air and moisture and other items to determine if I had mold in my basement. After getting the test results there was evidence of mold and he recommended a company that provides a do it yourself kit for mold remediation. (Not cheap). After getting the items and realizing that there was more work, it would have been better for me to let my insurance company handle this as I do have coverage for mold/fungi. Though having a professional do the work is expensive, from what Jeremiah mentioned, it does not guarantee that the work will be complete or the source of the problem taken care of. He mentioned most companies will take care of the mold but not necessarily the cause of the mold. For this I would have to contact another company."

"I used Scope Environmental recently to test floor tile and the underlying mastic to determine if either contained asbestos. I selected Scope because Jeff was very responsive, professional, independent of the abatement companies and his price was competitive. Jeff suggested testing both the tiles and mastic. The tiles tested positive for asbestos but the mastic contained no asbestos. As a result, I saved considerable expense by abating the tiles only and not the mastic so I also used Scope again for the post abatement air testing rather than the abatement company. I would hire Scope again for material and air testing for asbestos, mold or any other potentially toxic materials."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Just because you find mold in your home does not mean you need to pursue professional remediation services. You can often clean small amounts of surface mold, such as in bathrooms or on windowsills, using household products. However, extensive mold growth, persistent odors, or mold caused by water damage require professional remediation. A good rule of thumb is to hire a pro when the mold is in an area larger than 10 square feet, poses health risks, or affects the structural integrity of your home.

Costs depend on property size, test types, and additional services like mold sampling.

Mildew is a type of mold that forms in areas of excessive moisture and poor ventilation. Although it commonly exists in household air, it can’t take hold and spread if a surface is clean and dry. Generally, if you have any mildew or mold issues, it’s because the humidity in either your house, room, cabinet, or cupboard is above 50 percent. Common areas where you’ll find mildew are around water sources, which is why it’s commonly found near showers and in kitchen sinks.

A mold inspection, especially in homes with a history of water damage or high humidity, is critical for maintaining a healthy living space. Mold can cause respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and other health problems, particularly for individuals with asthma or weakened immune systems. Unchecked mold growth can lead to structural damage, resulting in costly repairs. A thorough inspection identifies visible mold and uncovers hidden sources to allow for timely remediation, preventing further damage and health risks.

Certainly, DIY mold tests are not perfect when trying to determine whether you have a mold problem. They could give you a false positive reading, or they may fail to detect mold that’s behind a wall, especially if the infestation is still small. Ultimately, you should seek a mold inspection if the DIY test gives you a positive result, just to be certain. And if the test is inconclusive, it’s probably worth seeking an inspection from a pro.
