Services
Mold Inspection
Our comprehensive mold inspections identify hidden mold growth using advanced detection equipment. We assess moisture sources, collect samples for lab analysis, and provide detailed reports with remediation recommendations. Services cover residential, commercial, and industrial properties.
Water Intrusion Testing
We identify hidden water leaks and intrusion points using thermal imaging and moisture meters. Our testing prevents mold growth by locating structural vulnerabilities in plumbing systems, roofs, and foundations. Reports include repair recommendations and risk assessments.
Thermal Imaging
Infrared thermal imaging detects temperature variations indicating moisture behind walls or under floors. This non-invasive technology helps identify hidden water damage and mold growth areas without destructive testing, enabling targeted inspections.
Sewage Screening
We test for sewage contamination following plumbing failures or floods. Our sampling identifies fecal bacteria presence, determining necessary remediation steps. Results help ensure safe property restoration after black water incidents.
Indoor Air Quality Assessment
We evaluate indoor air quality by testing for mold spores, VOCs, and other pollutants. Our assessments help identify health risks from poor ventilation, building materials, or contamination sources, providing solutions for healthier living environments.

Dan is wonderful! He explained everything to us so that we understand the test. He stayed in contact with us throughout the process. We used his services for before and after mold removal. Dan is courteous and prompt. With each testing he goes over the results and explains everything. Once we did the final testing to ensure the home was clear he sent us a report to confirm the area was clear of the mold.
Can't recommend him enough! Great guy and great service!!

Highly recommend this company for mold inspection for your home or rental. It's legit, honest, transparent, high quality and professional. *** Be super wary of any company that does both mold inspection and mold remediation. *** This company's service is mold inspection & testing only - therefore there is no conflict of interest or ulterior motives. Dale takes pride in his company and reputation and work ethics. He didn't have to but he went above and beyond to explain things and provide his expertise even before I booked him. He treats every caller and potential

Dale is the most knowledgeable, patient, and thorough inspector out there! He is the best and has been so helpful! Mold was affecting our baby's health and Dale did a super detailed inspection, answered all of our endless questions, and really helped us understand what was going on throughout. From the initial phone calls to the inspection and even helping us talk to the remediators, Dale went above and beyond! Thank you for being so awesome Dale!

Report
We had a very stressful situation where a tenant had flooded her bathroom, and then denied that she had done anything at all. Besides the anticipated cost of repair, we were concerned that there would be mold growth that would create a hazardous situation which our extremely hostile and aggressive tenant would then blame us for. We live in Berkeley, and in this town, no matter what a tenant does, the landlord is always deemed to be the party at fault and the entire City infrastructure is designed to penalize landlords. We had videographic evidence of the flood as it happened, moisture testing

Absolutely great experience. Dale is real professional in the field of house inspection and specifically in mold spotting. He does also provide recommendations on what's needed and what's not after initial house walk through. I've also asked for a fully documented report based on inspection results and Dale prepared one and explained all numbers in it. IT did help in my case a lot. Thanks again! I highly recommend Dale's services when dealing with house mold inspection.
