Our Mold Inspection Services

We understand the importance of maintaining a safe and healthy living environment, which is why we offer two distinct options tailored to your specific needs. Whether you have concerns about mold or simply want to be proactive, our experienced team is here to assist you. At Structure Tech, your health and well-being are our top priorities, and we’re dedicated to helping you maintain a mold-free living environment.

We offer two different mold services:

Mold Inspection w/ a Home Inspection

This option for a Mold Inspection is conducted in conjunction with a full home inspection and generally takes 30-60 minutes to perform. These can be done when there is already a known or suspected mold issue or they can be performed as a precaution. Mold Inspection pricing with a home inspection starts at $395 and includes the following: 

  • Three total samples – one outdoor air sample as a control test, one indoor air sample, and one additional swab or air sample at the inspector or client’s discretion
  • Indoor and outdoor temperature/humidity readings at the time of the inspection
  • A written report that includes test conditions, test sample location(s), sample results, and recommendations for further action (if necessary)
  • Additional samples, air or swab, can be done for an additional $125 per sample
  • Swab samples are recommended in addition to the standard air samples when a known or suspected mold issue is found

Mold Inspection w/o a Home Inspection

Mold Inspections without a full home inspection are conducted as a stand-alone service and generally take 1.5-3.0 hours to perform. While Mold Inspections with a home inspection utilize information found during the home inspection to help determine the cause of the mold issue, a Mold Inspection without a home inspection requires more investigation while the technician is on-site. This pricing starts at $645 and includes the following: 

  • Three total samples – one outdoor air sample as a control test, one indoor air sample, and one additional swab or air sample at the inspector or client’s discretion
  • Indoor and outdoor temperature/humidity readings at the time of the inspection
  • A written report that includes test conditions, test sample locations, sample results, and recommendations for further action (if necessary)
  • Additional samples, air or swab, can be done for an additional $125 per sample
  • Swab samples are recommended in addition to the standard air sample when a known or suspected mold issue is found
  • A visual inspection of the exterior and interior, including checking for odors that may indicate moisture damage and/or mold growth
  • A visual inspection of the attic area(s) looking for signs of moisture intrusion from the exterior and air leakage issues/condensation from the interior
  • A visual inspection of the heating, cooling, and ventilation systems for potential sources of concern
  • Use of an infrared camera to help determine temperature anomalies that could lead to, or are caused by, moisture problems
  • Use of a moisture meter at areas where temperature anomalies are found and/or areas of suspected or known moisture intrusion
