Why Mold Inspection and Testing Indoor Air Quality Matter

Standard property inspections evaluate visibly accessible building elements, but the most immediate health risks are often unseen. Mold spores and other airborne irritants may pose immediate and long-term respiratory risks, especially for those with underlying medical conditions. Thorough mold and indoor air quality inspections empower owners to take mitigation measures.
Our inspectors combine visual inspection with moisture detection and pay close attention to common problem areas like bathrooms, basements, and crawl spaces. Visual signs of mold cause for careful sample collection and analysis in a laboratory environment. The lab report will identify specific spore types and mold levels, improving the effectiveness of future mold prevention and remediation efforts.
An indoor air quality inspection measures airborne contaminants such as allergens, mold, and humidity levels. We take an indoor air sample and an outdoor control sample to provide contextual results. We also offer radon testing as an extension of our comprehensive IAQ services.

Commercial and Residential Indoor Air Quality Testing

The process for our mold and indoor air quality testing services was built on collaborative feedback from hundreds of HouseMaster locations nationwide. It’s designed to deliver conclusive, actionable results. Air quality testing may vary in your area. Contact your local HouseMaster for details.
