Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Gillette, 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
What is clinker doing under a house?
It is burned coal, and it behaves like a French drain that nobody designed. Water enters the clinker upslope and can travel a long way before it exits at a cut or a footing. A dry surface and a wet crawlspace are the usual signature.
The 1990s house next door does not move and ours does. Same street?
Same street, not the same ground. Basin lots change from bentonite to clinker to sand within a block, and boom construction did not always match foundation type to what was under the pad. The neighbor's quiet house is not a verdict on yours.
We closed the crawlspace in October and it smelled by spring. Why?
Because it was closed while it was still wet. The construction season is short, and a space buttoned up in the fall has all winter with no drying path. Opening it to controlled air, not sealing it, is what a 18-inch climate still requires when the ground itself is wet.
