BLACK Mold inspection - leak detection - moisture testing
TOXIC Mold Inspection & Indoor Air Quality Testing Coral Springs FL
When visible mold is not present, but the smell of mold is. Here a mold inspection or indoor air quality testing can reveal whether there is indeed elevated mold, and where it is located.

Indoor Air Quality Testing Service
The Laser Particle Counter is a useful tool we use to detect mold.
We take the particle counter into an area that we suspect may have a mold problem we can use it to 'screen' the area by taking a count for a set duration in suspect places. By comparing the counts in each area we can identify the area that has the highest concentration of particles. This then becomes the place for the start of an in-depth investigation. This technique can save time by pinpointing likely spots that are contaminated with mold.
How fast can mold grow?
it takes 24 to 48 hours
Under ideal conditions (optimal temperature and level of humidity), it takes 24 to 48 hours for mold to germinate and grow. Typically, the spores begin to colonize in 3 to 12 days and become visible in about 18-21 days. Of course, the time varies for different types of mold and depends on the actual conditions in the home – the type of surfaces and household materials in the affected area, the amount of moisture, the ambient temperature, etc. Nevertheless, the more time passes, the greater the chance for mold to develop and spread to other areas of the home.
How fast does mold spread?
Mold spreads in as little as a few hours. When a mold spore lands on a moist organic material, it roots into the porous surface and begins to feed off the organic substance. Within hours, the harmful microorganisms start spreading to adjacent moist areas, damaging the structural integrity of the material they’re attached to. Once mold gets a foothold on a surface in your home, it quickly fills the air with thousands of spores that spread throughout the building, affecting more and more areas with every passing hour.
So, the only way to prevent mold from infesting your home following an incident with water damage is to dry the premises within the first 48 hours after the water intrusion.

Stachybotrys is known as a toxic mold because it produces toxins called mycotoxins. Stachybotrys chartarum is a greenish-black mold. It can grow on material with high cellulose content, such as fiberboard, gypsum board, and paper. Growth occurs when there is moisture from water damage, water leaks, condensation, water infiltration, or flooding. Constant moisture is required for its growth.

INSPECT YOUR HOME BEFORE YOUR BUILDER WARRANTY EXPIRES
Construction Defects
At least a year's worth of seasonal changes is often needed to put a new house to the test. For example, only in summer might you discover that water seeps around window frames, or that you have a mold problem. And guess what: Your homeowners' insurance probably doesn't cover construction defects. You may, therefore, need to assert your rights against the builder, most likely based on the builder's warranty. few examples of the many types of construction defects include:
- Significant cracks in the foundation.
- Abnormal soil movement causing floor slab unevenness.
- Leaky roofs.
- Leaky windows.
- Faulty plumbing.
- Moisture problems from improper drainage or waterproofing.
- Bowing or slanting of floors or walls.

post REMEDIATION VERIFICATION
Get a clearance inspection.
But not from the company who did the work!
For the purpose of this article, post-abatement, post-remediation, and clearance are synonymous terms. Essentially, it means to check the work after it has been done.
As a general rule, owners can solve a mold problem in-house if the total repair cost is $500 or less, and the affected area is less than ten (10) square feet. Otherwise, all post-remediation verification in Florida should be done by a mold inspection company that is licensed and insured.
In either case, a clearance inspection should be done to verify the mold has been adequately removed prior to reconstruction.
It will also satisfy disclosure requirements for buyers in the event of sale or transfer. The clearance inspection will demonstrate your due diligence in having the problem handled properly in the event of a formal complaint or lawsuit.
The purpose of a mold clearance inspection is to provide a limited investigation report based on the remediation activity performed at the site by an independent mold remediation contractor. A post-remediation inspection, both visual and analytical, is performed to ensure a return to a pre-mold contaminated environment.
