To Test Or Not To Test
If you have reason to suspect mold, even if the mold is not visible, a test removes all guesswork. With Mold, many times the ultimate goal is peace of mind and a test can provide that. If the test comes back elevated I can assist you in finding the source of the problem and determine the most cost effective way to solve the problem.
Many times an Inspection reveals there is simply no need for a test. There are several conditions that have to be met in order for mold to grow. If just one of those are missing mold will not grow. I will not recommend a test that is not necessary.

The number one rule if you think you have a mold problem: DON'T PANIC! The facts below can be found on the www.epa.gov/mold website.
Some Facts:
- According to the EPA in many cases of mold can be cleaned up with soap and water. It does not necessarily mean your house has to have expensive remediation. See the article on the EPA website: "CAN MOLD CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS?" EPA
- Mold is ALWAYS a moisture problem. A damp house can cause many problems that can adversely effect your health
- There is no such thing as "Black Mold" or "Toxic Mold". Those descriptions were made up by the Media. Some Fungi (mold) can produce Mycotoxins that can be dangerous if you have an allergic reaction to them. Mold is an Allergen!
- If you think your house is making you sick you should have it inspected, BUT, any inspector worth his wage will tell you to see a Physician or Healthcare Professional first, not a mold remediation company
- If you think you have a mold problem let me perform a Moisture Intrusion Inspection and take some air samples. If you see mold, samples can be taken and sent to the Laboratory for analysis. Contact me for more information.
