💥 Mold Case Studies From Real Inspections
🧱 Kitchen demo uncovered black mold behind cabinets
We inspected the full area, tested multiple surfaces, and delivered certified lab results in 48 hours. The client handed our report to their contractor and avoided delays, disputes, and hidden costs.
🛠️ Home inspector flagged mold — deal almost fell apart
A couple had 3 days left before closing. We came out same-day, tested the attic and crawlspace, and delivered results in time for a $6,800 credit at closing. Our inspection saved the deal.
🏢 Landlord had tenants complaining of a musty smell
We checked under sinks, behind furniture, and inside the HVAC system. Found hidden mold + moisture damage. Our report gave the landlord legal protection and a clear remediation path.
🧒 Parents worried about child’s respiratory issues
We tested the child’s room, return ducts, and basement. Air samples revealed dangerously high mold spores. The family scheduled remediation the next day and followed up with us for clearance testing.
🔨 Investor flipping a house smelled mold in basement
We inspected joists, drywall, and sump areas. Found visible growth + high airborne mold counts. Our report helped the investor remediate before listing — and close the deal with zero hiccups.
