Mold Inspection and Testing

Over Half of ALL Buildings in the U.S. have sustained water damage, also in the Carolina region we experience a daily average of 70% humidity year round. This is the perfect environment for Mold to prosper. Mold isn’t a bad thing. Without it, we wouldn’t have beer, blue cheese, or penicillin. However, when mold starts attacking the inside of your house, it is a bad thing. GROW OLD, NOT MOLD.

Should I choose a company that does both mold inspection and remediation?

No. This is a conflict of interest, and it is illegal in many states.

Our Clean Air Protocol

Inspection

We start by conducting a thorough inspection of your home or building. We examine your property's exterior and interior to search for points of moisture infiltration, past and present water damage, structural abnormalities, and signs of mold growth. We check your ducts, HVAC system, sinks, pipes, skylights, appliances, and potential water sources.

Testing

Once the inspection is complete, we devise a sampling plan for sample collection from your home; specific to what was learned during the inspection. Some testing options we use are air spore traps, ERMI, HERSTMI-2, and surface sample swabs or tape lifts, dust sampling and VOC testing.

Analysis

We send your samples to a leading commercial accredited microbiology laboratory for third-party analysis. You will receive accurate, complete, and legally defensible data within days of sampling.

Reporting

Once the test results are in, a telephone consultation with you is the final step to your understanding the results and their implications. A comprehensive report, including test results, photographs, inspection observations, and proper remediation protocols is also available if needed.

We Offer a Variety of Testing Options

ERMI and Mycotoxin Testing

ERMI is a test designed by the EPA to detect the presence of 36 species of indoor molds, differentiating between toxic and common. It is highly sensitive and an excellent option for assessing the overall moldiness of your home. Mycotoxin testing detects toxic byproducts that are present on spores, small fragments of mold, and fungus that are released into the air.

We've got you covered, whether it's mold, fungi, mycotoxins, endotoxins, indoor allergens, actinomycetes, or streptomycetes.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Great experience! Bill responded quickly to my emails and gave me a good overview of the process. When he got to the house, he asked questions to better understand our concerns and goals. He was thorough and knowledgeable. He made some recommendations based on his visual inspection and then followed up with a report showing the air sample results. I had some questions after the inspection and he took the time to explain. Highly recommend."

"I reached out to William at Certified indoor air in regards to a mold inspection. I received a fast appointment and a environmentalist with a great personality. Upon my first call with William he listened to my problem and greatly understood my concerns he shared helpful insights in regards to mold and understanding the inspection process.

During the inspection William educated my family and I on understanding mold formations. He did a home inspection indoor and outdoor and took samples. I received my results relatively quickly. Once my results were received William reached out and explained the results in great detail and also provided feedback with visuals and a terminology reference that enhances the understanding of the results. I would recommend Certified indoor air."

"William Dolch did an excellent job in educating me on the proper test needed for our problem. Then he properly took the samples and proved the high level of toxic mold that was in my dad's apartment due to water damage. I highly recommend his services as he is very knowledgeable, professional and hard working. I'm thankful that I made the right choice to hire him and listen to his recommendations."

"I hired them to inspect a house for mold before I purchased it. They were extremely thorough. They got me the test results back quickly but the full report took longer for them to write up. It was within the time limit I was working under but I do recommend confirming with them about what the timeline is especially if you have a tight timeline. Bill Dolch was very helpful in terms of explaining the report in full to me. I would hire them again."
