When to Schedule a Mold Inspection in Downers Grove
A musty odor that returns after cleaning, staining beneath a window, or damp materials after a plumbing leak can raise questions about moisture and suspected mold. An inspection can help investigate these concerns before you repaint, replace flooring, or finish a basement.
QET evaluates accessible areas of your Downers Grove property for signs of suspected mold and moisture damage. We use moisture meters and infrared imaging when appropriate to investigate areas needing closer attention. We explain our observations and whether air or surface sampling could provide useful additional information.
Our Mold Inspection and Testing Process in Downers Grove
We begin by discussing your concerns and the property’s history, including leaks, water damage, repairs, and persistent odors. We then inspect accessible areas and investigate moisture conditions to determine whether sampling could help answer specific questions.
When air sampling is appropriate, QET uses professional Zefon BioPump equipment to collect samples. Indoor samples are evaluated alongside an outdoor reference sample to help interpret airborne mold spore findings. Surface samples may also be collected when laboratory identification of suspected growth would be useful.
Collected samples are analyzed by an independent laboratory. Results are typically available approximately 48 hours after the laboratory receives them. Your electronic report explains our inspection observations, laboratory findings, and the limitations of the evaluation.
