Mold Inspection, Remediation & Testing Company Serving Florida

Any residential or commercial property can be affected by mold. Mold could grow quickly, and it can have adverse effects. Mold growth left unattended will not only compromise indoor air quality but also may cause health concerns depending on the quantity and type.

If you suspect that your home or business has a mold concern, we suggest you quickly reach out to a trained mold expert for inspection and remediation services.

What causes mold?

By now, you are probably wondering what causes mold and how it can possibly spread so fast. You see, when tiny mold spores travel through the air, they eventually find a surface on which they settle. Under the right conditions, mold will spread throughout your home swiftly since you’ll hardly detect it in the first few days.

Mold can grow just about anywhere with proper conditions, especially where moisture is present over an extended period. Mold will also multiply where there is damp air such as Florida humidity. Contrary to popular belief, mold can grow in areas and surfaces within both low and high temperatures – that’s why you can even find it in your refrigerator and outside on a tree. However, we find that it likes to grow on the following surfaces:

• Ceiling tiles and wet air conditioning components
• Drywall and wallpaper
• Carpet, furniture, and drapes
• Attics and basements

In some cases, you might even find mold in books and magazines. To control the growth of mold in your home, we advise you to control the humidity levels. You should also ensure that your home or business premises have proper ventilation. To avoid creating the ideal conditions for mold growth, be sure to seal all leaky roofs and pipes. And if your home floods, you should get experts to carry out a thorough and timely cleanup.

When do we inspect for mold?

Fortunately, mold growth conditions can be quite clear. Any sighting of mold isn’t always an alert for testing, however, something minor may actually lead to the discovery of more hidden mold if not identified properly or within a timely fashion. Mold growth can occur in areas that you can’t see such as between walls and behind shower tile.

But mold testing isn’t the only aid our company comes to the rescue. We also come when there’s water damage in your home, especially when there’s a roof leak or a broken pipe. Keep in mind that if the water stays stagnant on a surface for long, your home will most likely be contaminated by mold.

We also come for inspections when you buy a new home. Why is this necessary? Well, that’s because you may not know if the home had experienced extensive water damage previously. The only way to determine that is for us to carry out the inspection.

Moreover, we’ll inspect your home or office for mold after you carry out some mold remediation services. There are many processes involved in remediation. That’s why we have to carry out inspections to make sure that it was taken care of properly.

Mold inspection vs. mold testing

Before mold removal, our team carries out a number of processes. Among them are mold testing and inspection. So, what is the difference between these services? Well, inspection involves identifying the presence of mold in your home or business and then assessing the size of the problem.

On the other hand, mold testing seeks to determine the type of mold that is in your home and the number of mold spores in the air. As you can see, this is not a test that you can carry out on your own. You need qualified experts doing it on your behalf.

Fortunately, our mold testing company has experts in place to conduct proper tests. We also know that results vary from one test to the other, regardless of the remediation efforts. When you call us to your home, therefore, we have to make sure that we inspect all the areas that are prone to mold growth. This is important because the EPA has no stipulated guidelines regarding the acceptable amount of mold in a home.

What do we do during an inspection?

Usually, inspection involves conducting a visual inspection of your home or business. As such, we use special equipment during inspection. Multiple moisture meters, hygrometers, particle counters, ladder, flashlights, thermal imagery cameras, etc. to help us inspect the areas that may have stagnant water or moisture or even hidden problems that have been in place for some time.

We are there to identify the water damage concerns and indoor air quality as it concerns to mold and make a determination if the property requires mold remediation. If so, our team will create a detailed remediation protocol report to gather a fair and accurate estimate for the proposed work. A mold remediation protocol is a guideline for the work that needs to be performed and how it needs to be performed. It will secure an unbiased scope of work is being followed.
