A mold inspection is a complete evaluation of a property to determine if mold growth is present, what type may be developing, and what conditions are allowing it to thrive. Unlike a simple visual check, a professional inspection includes specialized tools and diagnostic testing to uncover mold that may be hidden behind walls, under flooring, inside HVAC systems, and other areas you cannot see.
A high-quality mold inspection focuses on:
Identifying visible and hidden mold growth
Locating active moisture sources
Detecting humidity or ventilation problems
Evaluating past or current water damage
Providing recommendations for remediation
Whether for a home, apartment, business, or industrial facility, a mold inspection helps prevent long-term damage and ensures a healthy environment.
Every inspector on our team is NORMI-certified, trained, and experienced in identifying mold problems in all types of buildings. Our process follows industry standards to give you accurate and trustworthy results.
We inspect every area of concern, walls, ceilings, flooring, bathrooms, kitchens, basements, crawl spaces, and attics, looking for moisture, staining, discoloration, and structural issues.
Using advanced moisture meters and hygrometers, we identify elevated humidity levels and trace water intrusion back to its source.
Thermal cameras reveal temperature variations that point to hidden moisture behind walls, insulation, or building materials.
Air and surface samples are collected and analyzed by an accredited laboratory to identify mold types and concentrations.
You receive a full breakdown of the mold species present, their levels, and potential health risks.
You receive a clear action plan outlining next steps, including whether remediation or moisture control is needed.
Many homeowners confuse mold inspection with mold testing, but they are not the same service.
A mold inspection helps identify whether mold is present and where it’s coming from. Our NORMI-certified inspectors evaluate affected areas, identify moisture sources, and determine the extent of contamination before starting remediation.
Mold testing provides precise information about the type and amount of mold inside your property. When needed, we collect samples and send them to an accredited lab to confirm species and airborne spore levels.
Most properties need inspection first, and testing only if needed.

Black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) can release toxins that affect respiratory health. If you see dark staining, smell musty odors, or suspect black mold, a specialized inspection is essential.
We use advanced detection equipment and sampling methods to identify toxic mold safely.
Common signs that indicate a mold inspection is necessary include:
If any of these symptoms appear, a mold inspection should be performed immediately to prevent further damage.
A professional mold inspection includes a visual assessment of the property, moisture mapping, identification of mold growth and water intrusion sources, air sampling, and surface sampling. Results are analyzed by an accredited lab. ES America provides a detailed written report with recommended remediation steps.
