Attic Mold Testing is considered a Limited mold inspection, which does not include a visual examination of the entire building, but is limited to a specific area of the building identified and described by the inspector and/or client.
Observations are made from within the attic for visible signs of moisture intrusion, microbial growth and possible structural issues which leave unintended penetrations (openings) to the exterior, or situations where microbial growth may have compromised the structural integrity of the framing.
We have tested many attics after an energy efficiency specialist has visited the property and noted that mold may exist which needs to be tested and treated prior to any efficiency upgrades being made. HomeCheck RI will come to the property, test for mold in the attic using surface sampling (tapes/swabs) and provide a simple report explaining the types of microbials detected if any.
We also sample the room below the attic access as well as take an outside control sample to evaluate air conditions in the living space below the attic access.
