 What is a mold inspection (assessment)?

"a mold assessment is to determine the sources, locations and extent of mold growth in a building, to determine the condition(s) that caused the mold growth, and to enable the assessment consultant to prepare a mold remediation protocol."

Infrared Thermal Imaging Info:

Mold Inspection without infrared thermal imaging is not complete.  Sooner or later the inspector will miss a "wet spot".  Mold needs moisture to grow (food and water).

Do Not Use Just Air Samples (test) to Determine The Need For Mold Remediation

Can your home inspector interpret your mold lab results?
 

http://www.epa.gov/mold/moldcourse/chapter3/lesson3.html

 

"Sampling for mold should be conducted by professionals who have specific experience in designing mold sampling protocols, sampling methods, and interpreting the results."   EPA

 

"Experience in interpretation of results is essential.”   EPA

         Considering Bioaerosol Sampling

http://www.epa.gov/mold/moldcourse/chapter7/lesson2.html

 

"remember that a negative sampling report must not be used in place of a visual survey. Factors such as barometric pressure, inside and outside temperatures, activity levels, and humidity may dramatically reduce or increase the spore levels within a building. Air sampling for mold provides information on what was in the air only for the moment when the sampling occurred. It is important, therefore, that sampling not replace visual inspection."

Did you order a mold inspection and just get lab analysis for a report?
You had a mold test!
 
A mold test analysis is only part of a mold inspection Report.
This is not a reliable method of determining whether the property has a mold issue and does not identify any sources or information about why there is an elevated spore count.
A mold cleanup company needs a complete report.
 

It is commonly understood that communication, information along with the best equipment are the key to most any "problem" with mold and radon. 

 

Year after year we perform more radon and mold Inspections / tests for Residential Real Estate than anyone in south Florida, probably anywhere in Florida.

Doug Wall, CIE and John Cosgrove, CIE have performed thousands of radon tests and mold inspections for clients in Naples, Ft Myers, Cape Coral, Ft Lauderdale, Westin, West Palm, Tampa, Port Charlotte and even Bartow Florida.  They are certified by all three of the Environmental Associations for mold.

John Cosgrove, CIE and Doug Wall, CIE provide mold inspections that include a detailed report with detailed recommendations.   (Ever have a home inspector tell you, the home has elevated mold; you’ll have to have a remediation company find it and clean it up? or"call the lab")

Did you just get lab analysis for a Naples mold inspection report?

You just had a mold test not an inspection.   Remediation companies clean up mold.  Your Naples, Bonita Springs, or Cape Coral mold inspector should identify & document mold problems and moisture intrusion and include recommendations in your report.

FL DOH "750 Floridians a year die fof radon exposure"

Sun Sentinel, South Florida,  11-21-2004

 

We must have plenty of elevated radon in Collier & Lee Counties, why else would the FL DOH get a special grant from the EPA to study the problem.

 

“In some areas of Florida, one out of two homes has excessive amounts of radon”  FL DOH

Elevated radon levels are a serious health concern but they are just a home repair.

 

Radon & Mold Professionals  uses  Air Chek, Inc.  RB 0214 for Radon Measurement Services.

Naples home inspectors cannot perform radon tests unless they are certified by the Florida Department of Health to do so and have a Collier County occupational license for radon.

Hiring a Professional to Identify & Solve IAQ Concerns

Tampa, FL 11/09/2007 07:04 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)

According to:

New York City Department of Health (DOH), the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA), and the Mt. Sinai Occupational Health Clinic  ….. Guidelines on Assessment and Remediation of Fungi in Indoor Environments.

2.1 Visual Inspection   ******

A visual inspection is the most important initial step in identifying a possible contamination problem. The extent of any water damage and mold growth should be visually assessed. This assessment is important in determining remedial strategies. Ventilation systems should also be visually checked, particularly for damp filters but also for damp conditions elsewhere in the system and overall cleanliness. Ceiling tiles, gypsum wallboard (sheetrock), cardboard, paper, and other cellulosic surfaces should be given careful attention during a visual inspection. The use of equipment such as a boroscope, to view spaces in ductwork or behind walls, or a moisture meter, to detect moisture in building materials, may be helpful in identifying hidden sources of fungal growth and the extent of water damage.

 

American Indoor Air Quality Council (AmIAQC) has the only ANSI (American National Standards Institude) approved mold certifications.

AmIAQ_Logo_Scan.jpg

http://www.iaqcouncil.org

 

"Instant" certification is not available.  Each of our certifications is board-awarded, which means the IAQ Council certification board reviews each applicant’s file, including the application, examination score, documented field experience and attention to application details before awarding certification.  All experience may be verified before the applicant's file is sent to the certification board.  This type of certification process is worthy of the time it takes... up to 6 weeks following the study/review course and successful examination.  Minimum of 2 to 8 years required experience.

 

Experience required.

IESO standards  

Indoor environmental health and safety can often require investigations into such issues as water damage due to severe weather, faulty construction, or plumbing. Remediation of fungal contamination may be required to assure occupant safety.  Radon and Mold Professionals provides clearance testing to remediators but we do no remediation work to assure the consumer of no conflict of interest.
