Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Kennesaw, 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.
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 house is from 1998. How can the basement already seep?
New is not drained. Pasture was cut into a clay slope, and March rain sits against that buried face because clay will not take it in the cool season. The median year tells you the stock is young, not that the mountain flank was tiled.
The subdivision is new. Why does the yard drain toward the house?
It was graded on pasture that already fell that way. New construction did not change the underlying slope, so a 1998 basement sits below ground that has always run toward it. The age of the house says nothing about the lay of the land.
July looks stormier. Why is March the gauge's wet month?
March is cool. Five inches then stays in the clay. A July burst can leave in a day of heat even if the hourly rate is higher. The local problem is the winter-spring load on a new cut, not the famous afternoon thunderstorm.
