Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Lauderhill, FL
An assessor determines whether mold is present, identifies where it is growing, and measures how far it has spread — before any remediation quote is issued. A mold inspection locates moisture and growth that a room-level look would miss, reading wall cavities, subfloor, and the areas behind finished surfaces. The result is a scope: what is affected, what has to come out, and what is driving the moisture.
Quoted on site by the contractor who visits
Most people reach this page after noticing something rather than after something broke: a smell that returns, a stain that spreads, a room that feels damp. An inspection answers what is actually there and where the moisture comes from, which is the information every later decision depends on. Several states, Texas among them, keep assessment and remediation as separate licensed roles specifically so the party identifying the problem is not the party selling the fix. Nothing here is medical advice — if you have health questions, those are for a clinician.

Frequently asked questions
The wall weeps at the bottom and the roof is sound. What is the screed doing wrong?
Sitting too low for this grid. A weep-screed is meant to let a CBS wall drain to daylight, but on a lot cut to C-13 it can end up at or below the level the canal holds through September. It then admits the table instead of releasing the wall. That is a base-flashing and grading job, not a roofing one, and with 91 percent of the stock here predating 1990 the same detail repeats down the street.
Inland Broward has no dune. How does a tide still lock C-13?
Because the canals outfall to tidal water. A high September tide locks C-13 and the Middle River, and the inland grid then has no drop. You do not need a dune for a tide lock. You need a mouth, and this city's mouths are canals.
The lake at Inverrary is a golf feature. Why is the plate wet?
The lake is a pit in the same table as C-13. September fills it to the screed. Treating it as scenery misses the opening. A 1976 wall that weeps at the lake edge is a canal job with nicer grass.
