Mold Testing for Rental Properties

Tenants want to know their home is safe. The family member who spends the most time at home is usually the one who contacts us when they see or smell mold, or when they are having allergic reactions to something in their apartment, home, office, or building.  In some cases the tenant has genuine health concerns and the landlord refuses to acknowledge them. Renters are encouraged to research their rights pertaining to the local landlord/tenant law if they are wondering who will pay for mold issues and consider whether their personal cleanliness or negligence contributed to the problem. 

Store bought mold test kits cannot be used in renter disputes, and the cost for a minimum of three Petrie kits per dwelling with lab fees adds up. In addition, most home test kit lab reports are blank or unexplained. 

Call us today for a Free Assessment.  We provide professional mold testing services that are non-biased with Certified lab reports together with our written inspection and recommendations. We encourage you to photograph our equipment readings as well as any visible mold or water damage for your tenant report, and at times, we will provide written statements for attorneys.

Schedule a mold test before a renter moves in to avoid future problems. Owners who care about their rental properties have a vested interest in maintaining a healthy environment for their tenants. When landlords request an inspection, we provide an objective, professional and cost effective solution. At times, tenants look for an excuse to break the lease, receive a refund, or sue the landlord, so when we are contacted by the tenant we try to determine their motivation. Most tenants are sincere, and have mold growth that needs remediation. However, we have found that some tenants were sabotaging the rental, causing mold to grow, to capitalize monetarily. Our position is not to condemn a property or force a landlord to do anything that he or she may not want to do. Our job is to provide data and documentation about the condition of the property at the time of the assessment.

If you have a vacation home or long-term rental property that might have water damage, moisture intrusion or mold, schedule a mold test or investigation before your guests arrive or tenants move in. It's best to error on the side of caution than to have negative reviews, or the cost to move the renter to a hotel during abatement, or evict a family because the owner wants to have the building remediated.

Dryer fabric sheets cause house fires. These sheets build up "sticky lint" in the dryer ventilation. Lint is very flammable, and when it builds up in the exhaust vent, lint trap, and drum casing, it can catch on fire. Our equipment cleans out the ventilation from both directions: inside and outside the home. The long reaching arm rotates inside the ventilation ducting scraping the sides to clean out the lint.
