At MRC Restoration, we understand the importance of a thorough mold inspection process to identify and address any potential mold issues effectively. Our certified professionals begin with a comprehensive visual inspection, meticulously examining areas where mold growth is likely, such as:

• Basements and crawl spaces
• Bathrooms and kitchens
• Attics and wall cavities
• Around plumbing fixtures and appliances

We also rely on our keen sense of smell to detect any musty odors, which can be an indicator of hidden mold growth. Additionally, we utilize specialized tools like moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to pinpoint areas of elevated moisture levels, a prime condition for mold proliferation.

To ensure a thorough assessment, we may also recommend:

• Air sampling: Collecting and analyzing air samples to detect the presence and concentration of mold spores.
• Surface sampling: Swabbing suspected areas to identify the specific types of mold present.
• Bulk sampling: Collecting samples of building materials for laboratory analysis.

Our comprehensive approach leaves no stone unturned, enabling us to provide you with an accurate assessment of the mold situation and recommend the most effective course of action.

Mold Testing Methods

At MRC Restoration, we understand the importance of accurate mold testing to identify the type and extent of mold growth. That's why we rely on licensed assessors or industrial hygienists who possess the expertise to conduct comprehensive testing. Their rigorous process may involve:

• Air Sampling: This method collects air samples to analyze the concentration and types of mold spores present in the environment. It helps determine if mold levels exceed acceptable limits.
• Surface Sampling: Suspected areas are swabbed to collect samples for laboratory analysis, identifying the specific mold species present on surfaces.
• Bulk Sampling: Building materials like drywall, insulation, or carpeting are collected and analyzed to detect mold growth within these materials.

Our professionals utilize advanced equipment and follow industry-recognized protocols to ensure precise and reliable results. By leveraging their expertise and state-of-the-art testing methods, we can provide you with a comprehensive assessment, enabling us to develop an effective remediation plan tailored to your specific situation.

When it comes to interpreting the results of mold testing, it's crucial to understand the implications and potential coverage provided by homeowners insurance policies. While mold damage is generally not covered by standard homeowners insurance, there are exceptions when the mold growth is a direct result of a covered peril, such as flooding or water damage from a burst pipe.

• If the mold growth is linked to a covered event, homeowners insurance may provide coverage for the necessary remediation and repairs.
• However, it's important to note that separate flood insurance may be required if the mold growth is caused by flooding, as this peril is typically excluded from standard homeowners policies.

To ensure proper coverage and avoid any misunderstandings, it's advisable to review your insurance policy thoroughly and consult with your provider regarding the specific circumstances surrounding the mold growth. Our team at MRC Restoration can assist you in navigating the insurance claims process and provide the necessary documentation to support your claim.
