Why Test for Mold?

Mold may be growing in your home and impacting your family’s health and quality of life. Mold growth may be visible or hidden out of sight. Not all mold growth is discernable to the naked eye. Mold typically grows on moist or water-damaged building materials. Anything made of wood or paper is a good source of nutrients for the mold to grow.

 

When to Test for Mold

• If you think you have mold growing somewhere    in the house, perhaps due to musty odors

• After a water leak, burst pipe, flood, roof leak, or other known water problem

• When family members in the house have health concerns that may be attributable to mold

• You simply want to make sure your home is safe for you and your family
