Mold Inspection

When Should You Schedule Mold and Allergen Testing?

At Burgess Inspections, Inc., we understand that your home is more than just a building—it’s a haven for you and your family. That’s why the importance of mold and allergen testing can’t be overstated. It’s not just about identifying visible issues but uncovering hidden risks that could compromise your health and comfort.

When to Consider Testing

  • Mold and allergen testing is critical before buying a home, following leaks or flooding, or when indoor air quality becomes a concern.
  • Musty odors, visible mold, water damage, and unexplained allergy symptoms are all signs that testing may be needed.
  • Professional testing is essential because mold and allergens aren’t always easy to identify by sight alone.
  • We offer comprehensive mold and allergen testing to give you clear answers and peace of mind.

Why Consider Mold and Allergen Testing?

When we conduct a home inspection, we’re not just looking at the structure and systems. We’re checking for potential health hazards. Mold and allergens can lurk in unexpected places—behind walls, within air ducts, and beneath carpets. These hidden dangers can lead to a host of health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and even serious illnesses.

When is the Best Time for Mold and Allergen Testing?

Anytime is a good time for allergen and mold testing, especially if you are experiencing unexplained allergy symptoms. However, there are certain circumstances where it’s essential. If you’re considering buying a home, it’s prudent to have testing done beforehand. Likewise, if your home has recently experienced leaks or flooding, or if there’s been a noticeable decline in indoor air quality, testing becomes critical.
