We Provide Inspection Services Only
At Mold Testing LLC, we focus exclusively on professional mold and lead testing services for residents and businesses in Clifton, NJ. We do not offer remediation services, and that's by design. We remain completely impartial when testing and assessing mold.
This frees us from the temptation to exaggerate issues or deliver false positives. If our testing reveals a mold problem, we'll gladly refer you to a reputable remediation company that we trust. Then, once the mold removal process is done, we can perform a follow-up test to confirm that your space is genuinely mold-free.
About the Mold Testing Process
The Inspection
A professional mold inspection can include air pumps, infrared cameras, swabs, and moisture meters, and we will investigate every corner of your space for potential mold growth. We test visible spots, areas prone to dampness, and places that are hard to access, like your basement, attic, and HVAC system. We use both air quality assessments and sample analysis, to identify the presence of mold spores, determine their concentration, and identify the specific types of mold. All things considered, our tests are incredibly thorough. We want to make sure you and your family are safe.
We Analyze Samples and Do Lab Work
After collecting samples, we conduct laboratory analysis to identify mold species and determine their levels. Tests like Mold Specific Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (MSQ/PCR) allow us to pinpoint the exact mold genus and species. We also use advanced techniques such as Environmental Relative Moldiness Index (ERMI) testing to evaluate your property's overall mold profile.
We Provide Recommendations on Your Next Steps
Once we've completed the testing and analysis, we provide a detailed report showing you everything we found on your property. This will also include recommendations on your next steps -- since we don't do mold removals, we can put you in touch with a respected local contractor who will handle remediation for you.
From First-Time Home Buyers to Long-Time Residents
General home inspections will only catch visible mold that anyone can find; it's hidden problems that can lead to costly repairs and health issues later. First-time buyers and long-time residents alike benefit from regular mold inspections. We recommend scheduling a mold inspection every few years, especially if you notice musty odors or experience allergy-like symptoms. And if you have had any burst pipes, storm damage, or humidity issues in your home, it's likely that mold may be taking hold somewhere.
Ignoring Mold Causes Health Problems and Home Damage
Mold can cause allergies, chronic sinus infections, and more, so don't ignore it! The risks are even higher for people with asthma (black mold has caused asthma attacks) and compromised immune systems. But believe it or not, mold can also cause physical damage to your home. It grows into materials like drywall and wood, and this will cause warping or even structural insecurity if you do not kill the mold quickly.
