Why Do I Need to Test For Mold?

 

The answer is simple: because you do not want to take chances with your family’s safety.

 

Even though not all mold problems are catastrophic. Under certain conditions, mold is a serious hazard as it poses health threats and can cause expensive damage to property.

 

A larger scale project will require professional mold remediation, but having your home or office inspected and tested for mold will tell you first, if you even face a problem and if so, whether it's just a small clean-up.

 

Mold inspection is recommended in every project to determine safety and decontamination procedures. Safety is always first at 3 POINT, the safety of your family.

 

At 3 POINT, after the remediation work is done, a clearance test is performed to ensure that the remediation was successful, and that your home and family is safe.

 

What to do first: When Do I Need to Test for Mold?

 

Generally, whenever you suspect that your home or office has a mold problem, whether it is visible or nor, the first step is to schedule an inspection by a 3 POINT MOLD EVALUATOR to confirm or deny your suspicion.

 

Below is a list of times that would require a thorough investigation and a mold evaluation:

 

1. After a water damage event has intruded your home, no mater how small.

 

2. When you can see unusual stains on building materials or furniture or clothes.

 

3. When you suspect mold and smell a musty or earthy odors but cannot detect any visible growth.

 

4. When you find signs of a leak that you believe has been leaking for more than 24 hours.

 

5. When you find signs of standing water.

 

6. When family members or office personnel experience long-term medical conditions that cannot be related to a known medical condition.

 

7. Whenever you want to determine if mold is growing in your home or business, just to ensure you live or work in a safe place.

 

What Is a Mold Inspection and Evaluation?

 

A mold inspection is the process of visually examining your property for mold growths, and to detect and eliminate moisture sources that enable mold to grow. The Evaluation is written and designed to help facilitate an effective remediation plan.

 

The process includes both an indoor and outdoors inspection and lab samples are gathered in each area. During the mold inspection, the evaluator will take air samples and take moisture readings in several areas of the house, this allows us to determine if there is any ‘at risk’ areas in your home or business.

 

A mold inspection can also expose hidden fungal conditions that often go unnoticed and allow detection before they become a large scale catastrophe.

 

Who Should I Hire for a Mold Inspection?

 

In order to truly know the extent of the damage and to develop a proper remediation plan, you need to obtain an accurate and unbiased Evaluation. This will also help as you submit your damage to your insurance carrier.

 

It is important to hire an independent lab company for the verification of all testing, one that has nothing to gain from the results and does not get paid to remove mold from your property. A 3 POINT MOLD EVALUATOR is right for you. Our caring professional evaluator will assist you from the testing phase through remediation all the way through the final clearance test. But always 3 POINT will use a certified lab for test results, this ensures your peace of mind that an independent lab always verifies any work performed.

 

Beware of companies that offer to interpret lab tests and also perform remediation services, without 3rd party verification.

 

When you hire a mold inspector through 3 POINT, your request is matched with a company certified mold inspector. However, to ensure an unbiased inspection, all tests are completed by an independently certified lab, giving you the peace of mind for your family.
