Think you might have mold? Have us come by for a mold inspection in Lake in the Hills!
Once mold starts accumulating in your home, it’s hard to get rid of. Often, cleaning up the mold you can see isn’t enough. Mold growth happens best under a certain set of conditions, and unless you can alter these conditions, there is a good chance that it will return. And if your best efforts seem ineffective, it might seem hopeless. But if you’re looking to get a mold inspection at Lake in the Hills, call Healthy Home Mold Services Inc. During the inspection, your inspector will do a complete visual inspection of your property to identify areas of mold or moisture. Photos are taken of the areas of concern, along with mold testing as needed.
What good is mold testing?
Mold testing is used to help determine the existence and extent of a mold problem. Surface samples can be taken to determine if a substance is mold, and what type of mold it is. Air quality testing is used to measure the number of mold spores in your indoor environment. There are frequently mold spores in the air as a part of the natural fungal ecology, so we compare your indoor samples to an outdoor sample we take as a baseline.
What happens to the lab results?
Once your mold testing results are returned from the lab, we send you a copy of the lab report along with your inspector’s written report. If mold remediation is necessary, we will write up a plan of action you can use to do the mold removal yourself or hire a mold remediation contractor. We can also give you a written estimate of the mold cleanup if you would like to hire our Mold Cleaning division.
