Mold Inspection and Testing in Tulsa, Ok

The Mold Inspection process includes but is not necessarily limited to; reading any previous inspection or testing reports, gather information, perform a building moisture inspection, and develop a preliminary determination of whether or not there is a moisture problem that has resulted in mold growth.

What is the Mold Inspection Process?

Step 1: A Visual Inspection

The first step in MOLD911's Certified Mold Inspection process is to non-intrusively determine if mold is present by examining your home or business for signs of active water sources and or water intrusion problems. We may use a hygrometer, which detects humidity behind walls.Visible mold helps to determine the level of remediation necessary.
Intrusive observation is sometimes needed to assess the mold level. This includes moving furniture, lifting (or removing) carpets, checking behind wallpaper or paneling, checking ventilation ductwork and exposing wall cavities. Our Certified Mold Inspectors can recognize musty odors and will focus on areas where there are signs of moisture issues.

Visual Inspection of Problem Areas via Musty Odors are more Reliable

As stated in a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health article "Testing and Remediation of Dampness and Mold Contamination," "...spore counts and culture results, which tend to be what are included in indoor air quality reports, do not capture the full range of exposures. We have found that thorough visual inspections and/or detection of problem areas via musty odors are more reliable. These methods have been used in past NIOSH research and have shown a correlation with health risks in buildings that have indoor environmental complaints."

Step 2: Professional Mold Testing / Indoor Air Quality Testing

Contrary to popular opinion, indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air. That’s because your home has everything the outside air has, but is trapped in a confined space. Mold, dust, pet dander, and pollen can build up in your home’s air ducts, leading to heightened allergy problems. The outdoor sample is our base "control" sample that will be used to compare the indoor air samples.

Mold911's Standard Mold Test includes 3 samples. The goal is to compare an outdoor air sample to one or more indoor air samples. An independant lab will analyze the samples and report the mold species and concentration levels detected in your indoor air. If the levels of mold detected is normal, no further mold remediation is required. If the levels of mold are elevated we will be able to provide you information about mold remediation services.

How much does Mold Inspection cost?

Our standard Mold Inspection cost around $350.00. This includes

The investigation into the moisture issues causing mold to grow and location of mold.

Approximately 45 minutes to complete

Why Mold Testing is a part of the Mold Inspection process?

Mold testing should be done only to make a particular determination, such as airborne spore concentration or identifying a particular species. MOLD911's Certified Mold Inspectors follows the recommendations of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration Mold Guidelines (OSHA), National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the EPA and the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) guidelines.
