Mold is a serious health concern, and ongoing research continues to link mold exposure to respiratory issues, allergies, chronic fatigue, and even neurological effects. If you’re experiencing musty odors, unexplained health symptoms, or visible mold growth, testing your home is the only way to know for sure. Mold testing is quick, affordable, and provides peace of mind, whether you need confirmation of a problem or reassurance that your home is safe. If you have concerns, don’t wait—get your home tested today!
What’s the difference between a mold inspection and mold testing?
A mold inspection is a visual assessment of your home, where the inspector looks for visible mold, moisture issues, and conditions that promote mold growth. This includes:
✔ Thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture
✔ Moisture detection in walls and ceilings
A mold test goes a step further by collecting samples to determine the type and concentration of mold spores in the air or on surfaces. We use:
✔ Air sampling with a pump to analyze airborne spores
✔ Tape lifts or material samples for visible mold
💡 All our standard home inspections include a free mold inspection (visual assessment), but testing is an additional service. If you need a written report, it can be added for an extra charge.

What do I do if my home has mold?
If mold is detected, the next step is to identify the source of moisture and remediate the issue. We recommend:
1️. Hiring a mold remediation specialist to assess and remove the mold.
2️. Fixing the underlying cause (leaks, poor ventilation, humidity).
3️. Preventing future growth by keeping moisture levels under control.
💡 We can connect you with trusted mold remediation companies to help resolve the problem quickly and effectively.
Can I clean mold myself, or do I need a professional?
For small surface mold you may be able to clean it using proper safety precautions. However, if you have:
🚨 Widespread mold growth
🚨 Recurring mold problems
🚨 Mold in walls, ceilings, or HVAC systems
It’s best to hire a professional mold remediation company to remove it safely and fix the underlying cause.
How can I prevent mold from coming back?
The key to mold prevention is moisture control. To keep your home mold-free:
✔ Fix leaks and water damage immediately
✔ Keep humidity levels below 50%
✔ Improve ventilation in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements
✔ Use dehumidifiers in damp areas
✔ Inspect your home regularly for signs of mold
