Mold Testing and Evaluations in Central Oregon

Don't wait for mold to grow! If it has been longer than 72-hours since you experienced water flooding, leaks, ice dam or moisture damage, call us for a mold test BEFORE you start making repairs.  AFTER restoration is completed call us again for a "final" mold test to certify the area is a healthy environment. Many homeowners have experienced remediated water damage that was covered up with the restoration work. As time goes by and temperatures change, the mold reproduces into spores when it finds organic materials such as cardboard, ceiling tiles, and wood products. It can also grow in dust, paints, wallpaper, insulation, drywall, carpet, fabric, and upholstery.  As long as mold stays dry and is sealed off, it will not grow. However, it will grow rapidly once it is exposed to the open air, and given warm temperatures and moisture or high humidity - we call "the right conditions". Schedule an air quality test or a black mold inspection.

"Abatement is the removal of a contaminant from a site or encapsulating it in a way that it no longer poses a risk. Remediation addresses the underlying cause of the contamination to prevent future exposure and often includes an abatement strategy." - ARM Environmental Services

When you see a large area of surface mold growing, it will need to be contained by sealing off the area and having it safely removed by an expert abatement team. Give us a call and we will refer you to a personally trained and trusted certified mold Restoration company who are highly qualified to provide abatement and remediation services, treat the area so mold does not return, and restore the structure or room to its original condition. 

If the area is smaller than 100 square feet, we can take a surface sample and send it to the lab to find out what kind of mold it is.  We can also guide you to remove or clean mold safely.  What if you don't see mold but you know that there was water damage?  The affordable "first step" is to give Accurate Mold Testing a call and we will assess your situation, inspect for moisture intrusion, and take air and surface samples to see if there is toxic mold growing and locate where it is hiding. We send these samples to our microbiology laboratory, who provide micro certified lab results and a written report within 3 business days. Contact us if you are concerned that mold may be affecting your building and need advice, mold testing, or a referral to a trusted Restoration Company.
