The mold inspection services that we provide in Wilmington are the following:

• Comprehensive visual inspection


• Moisture reading


• Air sampling


• Surface sampling


• Bulk sampling

When we perform a visual inspection, we inspect several areas of the house looking for clues and signs of water damage. Prior to this part of the inspection, we will discuss with you a number of things about your property: when did you first start to notice any signs of mold? If you’re aware of any plumbing or water leak problems? Have you seen patches of mold and if so, where? Don’t worry if you don’t know the answers to all of them- just try and answer them the best you can.

Once we locate the source of the moisture we have the mold inspection equipment to determine the the humidity and temperature levels in your home during the moisture reading part of the mold inspection. We may also perform a air sample test since this is done to evaluate the quality of air in your home or building to make sure levels are within acceptable levels. If there is visible mold growth, we take surface samples using a “tape-lift” method or swab can determine what molds are growing on a surface. We may also need to perform a bulk sample which is a mold test that requires the inspector to remove a piece of suspected mold contaminated material, such as carpet, sheetrock or wood, and then sending that material to the lab to be analyzed.

We have the proper knowledge and training to handle the mold growth in your home. A professional mold inspector from AWA Environmental understands where and how to test for mold. A certified mold inspectors may use specialized equipment to not only confirm the existence of mold, but could also recognize the type, the seriousness of the issue, and determine where it's coming from.

There are a number of cheap DIY mold inspection kits on the market, but that is what they are cheap. Why would you try to determine if you home has mold, when the risks are so high, not just from the health complications, but from the financial costs. Mold growth left undetected and not removed could result in a property having structural integrity issues.

Health Problems Caused by Mold Can be Debilitating
Mold is dangerous and mold growth is commonly found in Wilmington homes. This means that there is a high chance that you are currently exposing yourself and your loved ones to acute mold. This is why hiring a certified Wilmington mold testing company is vitally important.

Mold has been directly linked to several health conditions where some such as asthma and allergic reactions are severe. Mold usually thrives in a cold, damp and moist environment. If your house is often damp because of a faulty plumbing system or a leaky roof or a cool basement, this dampness provides the ideal conditions for mold growth.

Another significant cost associated with mold is incurred in healthcare facilities. Respiratory conditions take a lot of time and money to treat in a hospital. Moreover, the affected person loses wages while they are recovering. It is a smart and strategic move, therefore, to ensure that you have mold inspection services in your home often and especially after floods or water leakages. This helps you to provide a safe environment for your family.
