A bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom with mold on a wall or ceiling, plus the moisture source fixed.

On the job
Mold remediation work in Mead homes
What a professional mold inspection involves
A mold inspection is a systematic assessment of a home for visible growth, moisture sources, and the conditions that lead to future problems.
The process uses tools like moisture meters and thermal imaging, along with a checklist of high-risk areas, not just a visual walkthrough. A firm price for the service is established when you call.
For independent guidance on mold, moisture, and safe cleanup, see EPA: A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home and CDPHE: Washington Department of Public Health & Environment.
- Visual assessment of basements, crawl spaces, bathrooms and attics
- Moisture meter readings across walls, floors and ceilings
- Thermal imaging where readings suggest moisture behind a surface
- Documented findings with photos, notes and a written scope
When a mold inspection is recommended
Visible mold is not required. Inspections are often prompted by a persistent musty odor, a recent leak, or during a real estate transaction to establish conditions.
An inspection is also prudent after a plumbing or roof leak repair, to verify no hidden moisture remains behind repaired surfaces.
- Musty odor without a visible source
- Recent water damage, a leak, or a history of flooding
- Before finishing a basement or crawl space
- Real estate transactions where mold history is a concern
