Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Conyers, GA
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.
No obligation: the assessment comes before any scope
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
Summer is supposed to be the wet season here. Why is December the problem?
The gauge says December. Winter fronts deliver a slow, cold rain onto clay that cannot evaporate and has already swollen shut, so the water sits. A July storm falls on warm ground with plants running. A December cell falls on a dormant lot and a 1989 crawl that will not see sun. The total can look similar; the drying window is not.
The house is on a hill, not the river. Is the Yellow River still involved?
As a flood, no. As a seepage path, sometimes. Granite shelves under this clay weep all winter, and a benched house on the slope takes that seepage at the uphill wall whether the river is in sight or not. The river job is the bottom. The hill job is the cut. They fail in the same month for different reasons.
Should the crawl vents be closed for winter?
Closing them traps the December moisture the clay is already feeding under the floor. This stock needs a path for that air to leave, and a ground cover on the soil, more than it needs a sealed box. A vent on the shaded side will look wet; that is the clay breathing, not a reason to shut the crawl up with the water still in it.
