The truth is that mold exists anywhere there is moisture. The question is 'should I be concerned'? Toxic mold is the #1 indoor environmental concern when it comes to air quality. The risk of serious health and legal issues, as well as the possible effect on real estate values has made mold a major household concern. Air quality testing is more important, and more available than ever before.

Who should be concerned?
Do you suspect there is mold in your home or workplace? Since we spend about 90% of our time indoors, either at home or at work, indoor air quality is of great importance. Mold inspections and air testing are more affordable than ever. As you read the information on our website, you should get an idea about any steps you need to take. If you currently have a mold problem, please call to discuss it in detail and we can determine what actions, if any, that need to be taken.

Home Buyers
Ask your home inspector about any past, present, and potential excessive moisture and water intrusion issues. An unidentified mold problem may exist. Don?t get stuck having to clean up an expensive mold or moisture problem that was not discovered before the purchase.

Home Sellers
Be positive that you don?t have any existing mold issues. Lack of knowledge does not remove your liability. Cover yourself with a certified inspection from The Moldman.

Real Estate Agents for buyers or sellers
Most professional agents and brokers are very aware of the mold issue and how to handle it. However, it is recommended that agents and brokers encourage, as opposed to discourage mold inspections on any occasion where moisture or water problems have occurred, and when their client expresses significant concerns regarding water issues or mold.  

Property Managers / Landlords
Protect your interests and your client's interests by showing "due diligence" regarding mold in your tenant occupied property. Lawyers are aggressively encouraging tenants to seek legal actions for negligence against landlords regarding mold issues. These are often frivolous. Annual water intrusion/mold inspections insure against frivolous, as well as legitimate lawsuits. Ask us about our service plans.
Just remember that if a tenant complains about mold, respond immediately... A quick response is the best first step against "gross negligence".

Child Care, a Health Care, Retirement or Convalescent Home operators
There is a very high degree of liability regarding airborne mold spore contamination in these facilities. A pro-active inspection can reveal issues that can be addressed before they become a threat to the occupants' health, thus deflecting potential liability. Again...if an occupant complains about mold...respond immediately.
