A visual mold inspection can be done for preventative measures or needed as a result from a problem, such as a busted pipe, slab leak, hurricane, roof leak, visual mold findings, or health concerns. A comprehensive investigation includes a complete visual analysis of the premises, moisture testing with a digital moisture meter, leak detection, and upon request, making an appointment for a mold sample collection for laboratory analysis. (United Water Restoration Group Inc. can provide certified mold technicians to perform all methods of mold testing.)
Mold Testing/Sampling
The method of choice for assessing potential exposures to airborne molds and mycotoxins in indoor environments involves the collection and identification of fungal propagules. Currently, there are numerous sampling methods available to measure fungal concentrations in the environment. Source sampling, which includes methods such as swab, tape, bulk, and dust, is commonly used to identify indoor fungi.
Air sampling is one of the most common methods used to assess fungal levels in indoor environments. Many studies have related human health effects, such as increases in allergic and asthmatic respiratory symptoms, to airborne fungal spores. As the health effects of fungal exposure are mainly respiratory, air sampling is believed to be adequate to represent the exposure.
If abnormally high levels of mold are found through air quality testing results, than it will be in your family or employees best interest to proceed with:
Mold Remediation/Restoration
Remediation is the process of removing the fungal contaminated building materials from the project site. The remediation effort should be accomplished in a controlled environment. The preparations to the affected areas normally involve the isolation of the space from the remainder of the building in order to prevent the cross-contamination of unaffected areas. Following this, special pre-written protocols are followed to properly treat and/or remove the contaminated areas using special tools, chemicals, and equipment. Clearance testing will then be preformed after the mold remediation/restoration process is complete. Call United Water Restoration Group Inc. to perform this service for you! 1-800-743-2064
