Mold Heroes Professional Mold Inspection – Thorough Certified Mold Testing & Inspection Services

Mold Heroes provides a professional, unbiased mold inspection performed by certified experts. Our process detects mold presence, assesses its extent, identifies hidden moisture sources, and evaluates potential health risks. A typical mold inspection takes 1–3 hours, depending on your property's size and complexity.

Mold damage often results from unresolved water issues — even after initial remediation — such as:

• Flooding
• Burst pipes
• Leaky roofs
• Sewage backups
• Damp crawl spaces
• Uncontrolled high humidity

1. Initial Consultation & Detailed Property History

We start with an in-depth discussion to understand:

- Past water damage, leaks, floods, or humidity problems

- Any musty odors, visible mold, or health symptoms (allergies, respiratory issues)

- Key concern areas (basement, bathroom, attic, crawlspace, HVAC)

This ensures we prioritize high-risk zones during the mold testing and inspection.

2. Comprehensive Visual Mold Inspection

Our certified inspector conducts a full walkthrough (interior, accessible exterior, attic, crawl space) to identify:

- Visible mold growth (black mold, green, white, or fuzzy colonies)

- Water stains, peeling paint, warped materials, or efflorescence

- Poor ventilation, condensation, or obvious moisture problems

Mold commonly found during inspections (classic black mold on walls/ceilings – immediate red flag)

3. Advanced Moisture Detection & Mapping

Mold needs moisture to grow — we use professional tools to find hidden sources:

- Moisture meters (pin/pinless) for accurate readings in walls, floors, ceilings

- Infrared thermal imaging cameras to detect concealed leaks via temperature differences

- Hygrometers to measure indoor humidity (optimal range: 35–55%)

4. Professional Mold Sampling & Laboratory Testing (When Indicated)

If findings suggest mold, we collect samples safely:

- Air sampling (spore traps) — compares indoor vs. outdoor mold spore levels

- Surface sampling (tape lifts, swabs, bulk material)

We use full PPE (respirators, gloves, suits) during collection.

Samples are sent to an accredited lab for species identification and spore count analysis (results in 2–5 business days).

5. Comprehensive Report & Clear Recommendations

Receive a detailed, easy-to-understand report with:

- All findings + high-resolution photos

- Lab results (if sampled)

- Moisture source analysis

- Severity & health risk assessment

- Actionable steps: repair leaks, improve ventilation/dehumidification, professional remediation if needed

Our commitment to ethics & transparency:  

At Mold Heroes, if our certified team performs your mold testing, we will not offer remediation services to eliminate any conflict of interest. We proudly refer you to trusted, qualified remediation professionals for any required cleanup.

Pro tips for choosing a mold inspection company:

- Select certified experts (CMI, CIE, IICRC, state-licensed)

- Typical costs: $300–$1,000+ (based on property size, sampling, tools)

- Prepare: Provide full access; avoid running dehumidifiers/air purifiers just before arrival
