What happens during a mold inspection?

If the mold infestation is obvious, our crew will take a sample of the mold to test and then create a treatment plan. Sometimes mold damage isn’t too obvious to the eye, so our test will have to take an air sampling or surface sampling.

If I don’t see mold, how can we test to see if there’s mold?

If we don’t find the mold on the surface, we’ll use a few different testing methods to make sure there is or isn’t any mold. One method of sampling we can use, is Surface Sampling. During a Surface Sample, we can take a lift ape or swab sample of the area. Once we get an appropriate sample, we’ll send it off to the lab. Another method we can use is called Air Sampling. With an Air Sample, our team collects a sample through a sampling pump into a cassette. Then the sample is sent off to the lab for testing.

Where are some common places mold can grow?

Mold can grow in modern homes around or in air conditioners, water filters, and automated appliances. These are just a few, but there are many ways for water damage to occur and then grow into mold.

Shamrock Mold Inspections is a licensed mold assessment company with our main focus being the health of your home. In modern homes with air conditioners, water filters, and automated appliances, there are so many opportunities for water damage to develop into mold. Most people don’t know that the air quality in their homes can pose a greater health concern than outdoor air pollution.

Our homes are often our most significant investment and where we spend the majority of our time. If left unchecked, mold can cause physical symptoms such as headaches, irritated eyes, runny noses, or fatigue. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it may be caused by an indoor air pollutant. The most vulnerable to these effects are young children and the elderly.

With over 25 combined years in the industry, Shamrock Mold Inspections brings a comprehensive knowledge of building construction and how water damage can affect your home.
