Residents of New York City, do you require mold testing and inspection?
Mold can cause many health problems for you and your family. Mold grows within damp and warm areas of the home. If you have/had a water leak, roof leak, been the victim of a flood, and/or have bad circulation of air flow within your home you are at risk for mold growth. Learn to identify the signs of mold such as:
- Smell of mildew/mold within your home
- White colored or black spots on your walls, furniture, ceiling.
- Unexplainable respiratory problems
- Unexplainable rashes or hives
Why Hire a Mold Testing Company in New York City?
It is important to have your home tested for mold by licensed mold inspectors before consulting a mold remediation company. A licensed mold inspector will test various areas of your home, send the results to an AIHA accredited lab for analysis, and go over the results with you.
For best results, make sure to hire an unbiased mold inspection company in New York City. A professional mold testing company will not perform the actual mold remediation although recommendations on what should be done in terms of remediation will be given.
How Does Mold Testing and Inspection Work?
We begin with a visual inspection of your home or property looking for signs of mold. We look for areas of concern like humidity, moisture, and where a leak or excessive moisture is suspected. Our mold inspector will then use state-of-the-art tools like moisture meters and infrared cameras to find other areas that mold could potentially expand. Next we take samples of surfaces and the air to send to the laboratory for analysis by trained mold specialists. The lab technicians will produce results based on:
- What species the mold is from
- Elevated mold levels
- The amount of mold
Once the report is complete from the lab we will send you a copy and go over the report with you to make sure you understand your mold situation and what steps need to be taken next to ensure the safety of your family and property.
Our New York City mold testing specialists conduct all mold inspections and mold testing in accordance with accepted IICRC, EPA, AIHA, ASHRAE, NIOSH, NYC and OSHA guidelines and recommendations regarding indoor environmental quality.
