Mold Assessment & Testing

Accurate Solutions for Safer Living Spaces

Comprehensive Mold Assessment & Testing Services

Our comprehensive mold assessment and testing services are designed to identify and evaluate mold issues in your property. Using advanced techniques and EPA-approved equipment, we conduct thorough inspections to detect mold presence, species, and potential air quality concerns. Our detailed reports provide clear findings and actionable recommendations, helping you ensure a safe, healthy environment for your home or business.

The inspection will help identify the appropriate testing required to assess the extent of mold growth within the property. There are several mold testing methods available, including air sampling, swab sampling (for visible mold), carpet sampling, wall cavity sampling, bulk sampling (of affected materials), ERMI mold testing, and culturable mold samples (for species identification). PureCheck Environmental will determine the types and number of samples needed to accurately evaluate the mold issue. Samples will be sent to a certified microbiology lab for analysis, and results will be available in as little as 24 hours.

Understanding the Mold Assessment Process

Our mold assessment involves a thorough inspection to identify mold and moisture issues. We take air and surface samples, analyze them in a lab, and provide a detailed report on our findings. Based on the results, we offer recommendations for remediation and prevention, ensuring your space remains safe and healthy.

Step 1 - Initial Consultation/Inspection Request

Customer Contact: The process begins when you contact us for a mold assessment. You may have noticed visible mold or are concerned about potential hidden mold.
Brief Discussion: We'll ask you about the symptoms (e.g., visible mold, musty odors, health complaints) and any previous water damage or moisture issues.

Step 2 - Visual Inspection

On-Site Visit: Upon arriving at the property, the mold assessor conducts a thorough visual inspection of the affected area(s). This includes common mold-prone areas like basements, attics, bathrooms, kitchens, and areas with water damage.
Look for Signs of Mold Growth: Inspect for visible mold, water stains, dampness, or moisture issues.
Moisture Mapping: Using moisture meters or thermal imaging cameras, assess areas that may have hidden moisture, which could lead to mold growth.

Step 3 - Moisture and Humidity Assessment

Humidity Levels: The assessor measures indoor humidity using hygrometers to ensure levels aren’t conducive to mold growth (typically 30-50% humidity is ideal).
Identifying Sources of Moisture: Determine if leaks, plumbing issues, or other moisture problems are contributing to the mold issue.

Step 4 - Air and Surface Sampling

Air Sampling: To detect mold spores in the air, samples are collected by using specialized air pumps that pull air through a collection device (usually a petri dish or spore trap). Multiple samples might be taken from different locations to identify levels of mold contamination.
Surface Sampling: Swab or tape-lift samples can be taken from surfaces (walls, floors, ceilings) to test for mold growth or its presence in areas where air sampling may not be sufficient.

Step 5 - Laboratory Analysis

Sending Samples to a Lab: The collected samples are sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis. The lab identifies the type and concentration of mold present, which helps in understanding the scope of the problem.
Results Interpretation: The lab provides a report, detailing the species of mold detected, their levels, and whether they pose a health risk.

Step 6 - Mold Assessment Report

Report Generation: Based on the findings from the visual inspection and laboratory analysis, the assessor prepares a detailed mold assessment report. This includes:
1. A summary of findings and affected areas.
2. Photographs of the problem areas (if applicable).
3. The types and concentrations of mold species found.
4. Humidity and moisture readings.
5. Recommendations for remediation and next steps.

Step 7 - Review and Recommendations

Explanation to the Customer: The mold assessor reviews the findings with you, explaining the types of mold found, the potential health risks, and whether the contamination is significant enough to require remediation.
Remediation Plan (if needed): If mold is detected, the assessor may suggest a remediation plan or refer the customer to a licensed mold remediation professional. If necessary, the report may include a scope of work to guide the remediation process.
Prevention Recommendations: In addition to remediation, the assessor may suggest improvements to the property to prevent future mold issues, such as addressing moisture sources or improving ventilation.
