Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Claremont, NH
An assessment establishes whether mold is present, where it is growing, and how far it extends — before anyone quotes removal. 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.
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 Sugar falls through granite. Why is the Connecticut terrace a different cellar job?
The gorge is raceways and runoff on rock. The terrace is a main-stem water table. October rain on the steps is a mill-canal problem; a high Connecticut is a groundwater problem. Treating the whole town as one river misses that the Sugar and the Connecticut wet different floors.
Keene's mill pond is a valley floor. Is a gorge raceway the same wet?
No. Keene sits on the Ashuelot in a wide valley. Claremont is a staircase of mill benches dropping the Sugar to the Connecticut. October rain here is a plunge-pool climate, not a broad pond. Neighboring mill towns are not interchangeable hydrology.
October is 4.87 inches. Does freeze-up on this gorge start from the raceway or from the sky?
Both, in that order. The raceway keeps the bench wet into November; then the sky's last cell locks that moisture in the granite joints. January tests openings the mills left. A dry mill pond in photographs is not a dry cellar on those steps.
