Mold Testing
If you notice musty odors, past leaks, high humidity, or visible growth, mold testing can help identify concerns and guide next steps. We focus on moisture drivers and prevention-minded recommendations.
Asbestos Testing
Older homes may contain asbestos-containing materials. If materials are damaged or renovations are planned, testing supports informed decisions and responsible risk management.

Lead-based paint remains a concern in many older properties. Testing can be important for families with small children, rental properties, and renovation planning.

Moisture in crawlspaces can contribute to odors, mold risk, wood damage, and indoor air quality issues. We document conditions and identify likely contributors such as grading, drainage, and ventilation concerns.
