Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Wichita Falls, TX
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.
Local contractors · findings documented for your claim
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 ground looks hard and the rain just sat on top of it. Why?
It has had no give since the freeze. Rolling Plains clay closes over winter and has taken nothing in by May, so nearly four inches lands on a surface that cannot accept it. The soil is not so much dry as shut.
We are on the south side with no river in the window. Why is the yard wet?
Lake Wichita is behind you. The south-side terrace takes lake backwater without the river ever coming into view, so a lot that reads as inland from the window is still on the wet side of the system. That is a different job from a river rise, and it is the one that catches people who checked the channel and never checked the lake. The clay does the rest once the water is under the slab.
Twenty-eight inches a year is not a wet climate. Why would May still load a wall?
Because the year arrives as swings, not as a season. Drought opens the clay. May's 3.81 inches is the first water those cracks have seen, and it runs under the slab instead of soaking. A dry climate here does not stay sealed; it opens and then soaks from below.
