At Rock Inspection Services, Safety Is Our Priority.
Online, January 14, 2014 (Newswire.com) - ay that you are about to purchase some property - perhaps your first home or a new business - and you try to let your excitement outweigh the nagging feeling that something just seems too good to be true. You notice a musty odor, a bit of dampness, or perhaps some harmless-looking mildew, but you try to sweep it under the rug. Come to think of it, perhaps you need to stop, breathe, and take a moment to actually look under that rug! After all, you may be there for quite some time and the quality of your life and health might be at risk. There are many documented health risks related to mold exposure and so it is not an area that you should be willing to compromise.
Thoroughly inspecting homes and properties is not what most people do best. In fact, it is easy to overlook common red flags that might indicate a mold problem is present. Dark and damp areas are a playground for mold spores to reproduce and it takes a dedicated professional inspector to weed out all possible mold risks. If the property has ever been flooded or experienced very damp conditions, mold growth may begin. Often properties are temporarily or quickly cleaned up, in order to sell them, but dormant mold spores can wait for favorable conditions to begin growing once again. In order to make sure complete mold remediation is done and no further problems will emerge, a professional mold inspection should be performed before the sale. This type of inspection should cover both visual and hidden areas of the property and can include laboratory services to provide detailed information, as necessary.
Having a professional service involved takes the worry out of the sale and puts mold in a proper perspective as a viable and important part of a thorough property inspection. Keep in mind that this level of service is not performed during a typical home inspection and requires a company that specializes, specifically, in mold inspection.
