Mold is rarely just a mold problem—it is almost always a moisture problem. Whether caused by construction defects, hidden leaks, poor ventilation, or humidity imbalance, moisture creates the conditions where mold, bacteria, and microbial VOCs can thrive.

Our Mold & Moisture Assessment provides a thorough, Building Biology–informed evaluation of your home to uncover both visible and hidden issues before they become costly or impact your health.

Unlike traditional mold inspectors who focus solely on testing, we take a holistic approach that looks at the entire building system: how air moves, how moisture accumulates, where weaknesses exist in the building envelope, and how your daily routines may influence humidity and ventilation. The goal is to understand why a problem is occurring—not just whether mold is present.

We evaluate environmental factors through the lens of Building Biology principles, which emphasize low-toxicity materials, proper air exchange, balanced humidity (ideally 40–60%), and prevention of microbial amplification.

 

After the assessment, you will receive a clear and actionable report outlining:

• Moisture sources and contributing factors

• Identified mold risks or active growth

• Problem areas prioritized by severity

• Photos, data logs, and infrared images

• Building Biology moisture & mold guidelines

• Practical steps to reduce risk or correct issues

• Guidance on when professional remediation is recommended

• Long-term strategies to maintain a dry, healthy indoor environment

 

Our recommendations focus on practical, cost-effective solutions such as:

• Fixing leaks, drainage issues, or roof vulnerabilities

• Improving bathroom and kitchen ventilation

• Adjusting humidity or airflow to prevent condensation

• Correcting attic, crawlspace, or basement moisture problems

• Reducing indoor sources of moisture and VOCs

• Upgrading filtration and HVAC maintenance routines

• Using safer cleaning methods and non-toxic remediation strategies

We help you understand what needs to be addressed immediately versus what can be monitored or improved over time—empowering you to make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary remediation or fear-driven testing.

 

This service helps you:

• Identify the root causes of moisture and mold issues

• Protect your home from future damage and costly repairs

• Create a healthier indoor environment, especially for sensitive individuals

• Improve ventilation, humidity balance, and air quality

• Gain confidence and clarity before buying, selling, or renovating a property

• Determine whether professional remediation is needed—and how to ensure it’s done correctly

 

Whether you’re experiencing symptoms, noticing musty odors, planning a renovation, or simply want to understand the health of your home, our Mold & Moisture Assessment gives you the insight and expert guidance needed to protect both your home and your well-being.
