Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Norcross, 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
Two houses on the same block drain opposite ways. Is that possible?
Here it is expected. The block straddles a drainage divide, so one side sheds toward one creek system and the other side toward another. Neighbors a hundred feet apart genuinely do not share a downstream path, and a fix that works on one side may do nothing on the other.
The yard has no creek. Why is the Sheffield Forest slab wet in November?
The creek is the destination, not the path. November rain on a saprolite cut runs the pad like a funnel. A 1990 stem on that cut takes the yard before any named stream would. Looking for a creek on the plat will not find a divide lot.
Does Buford Highway change how a commercial pad sheds onto a house?
It does. The highway is a ridge of pavement on the divide. A commercial pad drains onto whatever residential cut sits downhill, Peachtree-side or Yellow-side. The stain on a ranch wall can be a parking lot's November, not the house's roof.
