What to Expect During a Professional Mold Inspection

When you schedule a mold inspection, you’re taking the first step toward protecting your home and your health — but what actually happens during the process? At Los Alamos Mold Inspectors, our goal is to make every inspection clear, thorough, and stress-free.

Step 1: The Consultation

We start with a detailed conversation about your home’s history — any leaks, water damage, or musty odors. This helps us identify potential problem areas and tailor the inspection to your specific situation.

Step 2: Visual Assessment

Next, we perform a comprehensive visual inspection of your home — inside and out. We look for telltale signs like water stains, warped drywall, peeling paint, or visible mold growth.

Step 3: Advanced Testing

Because not all mold is visible, we use air and surface sampling to detect hidden spores. These samples are analyzed by an accredited lab to determine the type and concentration of mold present.

Step 4: Detailed Report & Action Plan

Once results are in, you’ll receive a full report outlining findings, affected areas, and next steps. We explain everything in simple terms — no scare tactics, just facts — so you can make informed decisions about remediation or prevention.
