🔎 Our Five-Step Mold Inspection Process
1️⃣ Visual Inspection
We perform a complete walkthrough of your property — basements, bathrooms, attics, HVAC returns, crawlspaces, and exterior walls — documenting stains, leaks, and possible growth.
2️⃣ Moisture Testing & Infrared Scanning
Moisture feeds mold. Using infrared thermal cameras and digital meters, we find hidden wet spots behind drywall or under flooring — common after storm damage or plumbing leaks.
3️⃣ Mold Sampling
Depending on the situation:
Air Samples – Compare indoor vs outdoor spore levels.
Surface Swabs or Tape Lifts – Test visible growth.
Dust Samples (optional) – Reveal long-term exposure.
4️⃣ Accredited Lab Analysis
All samples are analyzed by an AIHA-accredited environmental lab to identify mold types such as Aspergillus, Penicillium, Chaetomium, and Stachybotrys chartarum (black mold).
5️⃣ Comprehensive Report
Within 2–3 business days you’ll receive a digital report summarizing:
Findings & photos
Moisture and humidity data
Lab spore counts and species
Professional recommendations
🏠 Common Mold Issues in Orland Park Homes
Orland Park’s mix of older brick homes and newer developments means hidden moisture is common. Frequent problem areas include:
Basements with foundation seepage or sump-pump overflow
Bathrooms & Laundry Rooms with chronic humidity
Attics with blocked vents or roof leaks
Window Frames & Drywall Corners with condensation in winter
Finished Basement Drywall absorbing moisture from outer walls
Even minor moisture can cause mold behind paint or paneling. Early testing stops it before repairs get expensive.
