Why Do You Need Mold Inspections?
Health
The existence of mold can cause serious health issues, especially among the young, elderly and those with respiratory problems. Professional mold inspection services can spot and prevent the further spread of mold, protecting you and your family.
Real Estate Transactions
Regular home inspections may not detect mold growth behind walls, ceilings and insulation. Plus, humidity levels and differences from room-to-room may cause hidden moisture problems. These problems can, over time, be highly expensive to repair and hurt the value of your property.
Former Flooding
Regular home inspections may not detect previous flooding, hidden leaks, suspected leaks and the chance of re-flooding – potentially expensive issues that may all lead to mold growth.
Drug Houses
Regular home inspections may not detect toxic mold caused by former residential ‘Marijuana Grow Operations’, many of which end up condemned or require extensive mold remediation in order to make them safe to live in.
