Independent and Professional Mould Assessment

Our job is to determine if you have a mould issue, how serious is it, where is the mould located and is it affecting the indoor air quality and are there health concerns.  We then issue a detailed step-by-step report that in minor cases you can follow and in more serious cases a mould removal contractor will follow.




Our Mould Inspection Process:




Visual Inspection of the home or office for signs of mould and water damage

Relative Humidity readings

Moisture meter survey of walls, ceiling and floors in suspect areas

Thermal imaging of walls, ceiling and floors 

Laboratory sampling for airborne mould spores

Written report and consultation with client.



Don't let your mould removal contractor decide the size and scope of the work.  An independent third party like Verify Air Quality Test can save you money and make sure the work is done right.
