First, HouseCheck’s experts visually inspect your residence for signs that it is conducive to mold growth.
Next, we’ll take readings with an infrared camera.
We’ll check for moisture inside your walls.
We’ll also inspect your air conditioning unit to see if condensation might be creating microbial growth.
If our inspection reveals that your house is at risk, we’ll explain our findings and detail your options for further testing to pinpoint the location and severity of the issue.
If additional testing reveals mold is present, we’ll recommend effective steps for removing the mold. Once remediation is complete, we’ll retest your house to make sure your home is clear.

* CORRECTING MOLD MISINFORMATION - Ronald E. Gots, MD, PhD, International Center for Toxicology and Medicine
* According to experts in MOLDY, more than half the houses in the U.S. have mold problems, and 28 percent of the population have genes that make them highly susceptible to mold-related health issues. Environmental mold is a far bigger concern than asbestos or lead paint, and it affects us all, says Asprey. We usually can't see it growing, because it grows inside of drywall. The top places it lurks are behind improperly installed showers, in leaking roofs, and in crawl spaces with poor air circulation.
