Mold Testing & Inspection Services in Greater Toms River

Is Mold Sampling and Testing Necessary?

Many common building materials are susceptible to mold growth if they become damp for an extended period of time.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):

"In most cases, if visible mold growth is present, sampling is unnecessary. Since no EPA or other federal limits have been set for mold or mold spores, sampling cannot be used to check a building's compliance with federal mold standards."

ANY type of indoor mold growth is potentially dangerous (not just toxic black mold) and ALL mold must be removed regardless of quantity. When it comes to indoor mold, there is no such thing as either "safe" mold or a safe threshold quantity of mold. If something in your home looks like mold or smells like mold, it needs to be treated - and that goes double if a family member is suffering from chronic respiratory problems.

Signs your Home or Business needs Mold Testing

One of the most common questions homeowners and businesses ask is what signs they need to for when it comes to mold growth. If you have noticed any of these symptoms, contact Mold Solutions by Cowleys for our mold testing services:

Musty smell: There's a good chance you'll smell a mold problem before you see it, especially if the mold is in a lightly visited area like the attic or crawl space. If you've noticed a musty smell in your home, a mold inspection will help you find the cause of the problem.
Water issues: Mold thrives in damp environments. If you've recently experienced a leak or flood of any kind, mold testing is a good idea. Water can seep through into just about anywhere, and a mold problem could become serious before you realize it's there.
During the home buying process: If you're in the process of buying or selling a house or commercial building, a mold inspection will give you peace of mind that the property you're buying is safe, or allow you to confidently tell prospective buyers there are no issues.
Concerns about mold type: If anyone in your home has asthma, strong allergies, or other respiratory issues, certain strains of mold may be more problematic. If you do see signs of mold, getting a test to be sure it's not a more serious issue may be smart. An additional warning sign is allergies acting up out of season or being more severe than usual. Mold allergy symptoms include coughing, itchy, watery eyes, and a rash or hives.

If you have visible mold in your home, it's generally best to call us for mold removal services. We'll inspect your home as part of the remediation process to ensure that your home is fully cleaned.
