Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Casper, WY
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
How can 13 inches a year move a foundation?
The clay does the moving, not the volume of rain. Bentonite takes on water and swells, then shrinks as it dries, and it does not do either uniformly around a building. A wet May and a dry August are enough of a cycle to lift one corner and drop another, which is all a crack needs.
We are on the terrace, well above the river. Still a basement issue?
Elevation above the channel is not elevation above the water table. The terrace is river deposit, and groundwater in it sits closer to a basement floor than the modest rainfall would suggest. A dry climate at the surface and a wet wall below grade are compatible here.
If we stop watering one side of the house, does the cracking slow down?
It can change which side cracks. The clay responds to difference, so drying one side while the other stays irrigated is the gradient that produces movement. Matching the moisture around the whole perimeter, even at a low level, is more useful than cutting water on the side that looks like the problem.
