Mold Inspections
Our certified specialists perform comprehensive property evaluations to identify mold growth, moisture sources, and potential health risks. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we create detailed reports with actionable recommendations for remediation and prevention. This service ensures building occupants safety while protecting property value through early detection.
Air Quality Testing
We conduct air sampling to detect mold spores and contaminants affecting indoor environments. Our lab-certified testing identifies pollutant levels that may contribute to respiratory issues or building-related illnesses. Results guide targeted interventions to create healthier living and working spaces while meeting industry safety standards.
Remediation Oversight
Our experts supervise full-scale remediation projects to ensure proper containment, removal, and prevention protocols. We enforce strict safety standards during abatement and verify effectiveness through post-remediation testing. This oversight guarantees complete mold eradication while minimizing exposure risks for occupants and workers.
Hazardous Materials Management
We identify and manage asbestos, lead, PCBs, and underground storage tanks during building assessments. Our specialists provide compliance documentation and remediation strategies for safe handling of regulated materials. This service protects both human health and environmental safety during renovation or demolition projects.
Water Intrusion Analysis
Our team locates hidden moisture sources causing mold growth through thermal imaging and moisture mapping. We diagnose structural vulnerabilities and recommend permanent waterproofing solutions. Addressing these issues prevents future mold outbreaks while preserving building integrity through targeted repairs.

Report
Thomas Nadermann of Mold Investigators has to be the most slick talking crooked man in this business. He conducted an investigation for my landlord- did not include the lab report (was told by my investigator they use the same lab and it makes NO sense why this would not be included- and it clearly highlights dangerous conditions in red) Thomas stated on his report that it was safe for my family (yes even my children) to be in the home- when he knew very well that there was an extremely high spore count of Stachybotrys inside the home. did the inspection while active mold was STILL in the house
