Professional, clear communication, thorough

Alan B. Portland, OR, 1/18/2025

Easiest 5 stars I’ve ever given. Grayson went above and beyond to help find and communicate any mold issues, as well as identifying some rodent issues I was unaware of in the attic.

Elizabeth G. Raleigh, NC, 1/16/2025

Tim was great. The crew was so professional and easy to work with. They are an independent group that identifies issues without having an incentive to find things. They are far better than an all in one shop that will identify then fix.

Jerry was wonderful! Professional, personal. On time. Courteous. Knowledgeable. Friendly.

Matt L. Petaluma, CA, 1/15/2025

Craig did a very thorough inspection of our home. He took the time to cover every part of the home and ensure his report was comprehensive and covered our concerns. The consultation following the report with Craig helped us make decisions on how to proceed in a safe and economical manner. We would ask for Craig for any future inspections that are needed. He was very helpful.

John R. Battle Ground, WA, 1/15/2025

Grayson did an extremely thorough job. She was very amiable and interested in helping us with this problem. She was also very loyal to your company making a number of positive comments about how great a company Moldsci is. So, thank you very much for sending Grayson -- she was just great.

Tim and mark did a great job and were very friendly and patient with us, our toddler, and our pets.

Michael J. San Diego, CA, 1/15/2025

I honestly can’t recommend Mold Inspection Sciences enough. As someone who is currently dealing with mold-related illness in the San Diego area, I called all of my options for inspection to hire an inspector who takes that into consideration. It’s overwhelming vetting your options for mold inspection so I’m hoping this review can help those who might find themselves in a similar situation. I called four companies who fit the criteria that I was looking for in terms of certification, testin...

Frank is not only knowledgeable and thorough, he was also personable. I felt very confident that he was inspecting every part of my house. I would highly recommend asking for Frank.

Shane with M.I.S. was wonderful with customer service. He is knowledgeable and kind and prioritized helping me. Thank you again Shane! Craig was our inspector. We paid his travel fee to have him come to our home in South West Idaho. My kids and I are working on healing from CIRS and he had a lot of experience in understanding CIRS and how meticulous of an inspection that we needed throughout our home after we had water in our crawlspace for weeks. Craig has great people skills, he wa...

Mold Investigation Methods

Moisture Detection

Moisture Detection

Mold growth requires three things: mold spores, a food source (building materials), and moisture or water. So, where we find moisture, we find mold. By locating the source of moisture and identifying hidden water intrusions, we can focus our mold investigation in the right areas.

If there was water damage from a flood, a leak, or a natural event we can inspect and assess the water damage along with identifying the presence of mold and make recommendations on the best way to return the home or office to a healthy state. 

Infrared Technology

Infrared Technology

We use FLIR infrared camera technology to enhance our inspection services. This advanced, non-invasive technology allows our inspectors to zero in and identify potential sources of moisture to more accurately determine testing and sampling areas. This will allow us to make even more precise conclusions and recommendations for action during the inspection.

Sampling and Testing

Sampling and Testing

We often get questions about how we determine which sample types to recommend, why we recommended a specific number of samples, and other questions about our sampling approach - known as our Sampling Strategy. Through the course of the assessment, our inspector will put together a Sampling Strategy specific to your property that will allow us to pinpoint problem areas, determine overall contamination levels, guide remediation efforts when needed, or in other cases rule out mold as a source of concern. If you have questions about the type of samples used or are wonder how and why specific recommendations are made, you can find tons of information in our Sampling Guides. Feel free to reach out to us with specific questions.

Certified Mold Inspectors

Certified Mold Inspectors

Performing professional, high-quality inspections requires three things—certification, education, and experience—values we do not take for granted. Each of our inspectors, consultants, and project managers is a Certified Mold Inspector (MICRO and MIS CMI). To protect your liability, property, and health, it’s important to engage the services of a professional and certified mold inspector. 

No Conflict of Interest

No Conflict of Interest

We don’t perform mold remediation, repair, or construction. We have no interest in the outcome of our inspections other than to ensure you have the information needed to return your home or office to a healthy state. Our expertise guides us, and we never have a conflict of interest regarding our findings and recommendations. We use a science-based approach and only do inspections and testing, never remediation.

Specialized Air Sampling Equipment
