— Inspection methodology

A defined protocol, start to finish.

Every inspection follows the same structured sequence: visual survey, moisture mapping, and targeted sampling where the evidence points. No improvisation, no guesswork.

/ On-site process

Three phases, every inspection.

The inspector walks every accessible area, noting discoloration, staining, efflorescence, and any sign of past or active moisture intrusion. Each finding is logged in real time.

Phase 02

Moisture mapping across problem zones

Readings are taken at walls, ceilings, floors, and HVAC areas where moisture accumulates. The data builds a spatial picture of where conditions favor mold growth.

Phase 03

Sampling where evidence indicates

Air and surface samples are collected only where the visual and moisture data warrant it — not as a default. Samples go to an accredited third-party laboratory.

• Written deliverable

A structured report, not a sales document.

The report maps every finding to a specific location in the property, states what was observed, and explains what the data suggests. Lab results are included verbatim.

Next-step options are listed as factual choices — remediation, re-test, or no action — based on the findings. The report reflects the property on inspection day. Nothing more.

Reports delivered within 48 hours of the on-site inspection.
