Mold Inspections

Commercial Property Mold Inspections

For commercial building owners, dealing with mold is a major concern. Mold is a fungus; like all fungi, it thrives in moist places. Mold spreads by emitting spores, microscopic particles often as small as a single cell. When it comes to testing your commercial building for mold, check with your tenants and keep a close eye on the building to know if it gets any water damage.

From a leaking roof to a busted pipe, any complication that allows water to enter your commercial building can cause mold to grow in as little as 24 hours. Mold can form within the walls or in places completely out of sight. The potential harm to your property and your tenants’ well-being can create challenging situations.

The Danger of Mold Spreading

Molds have the potential to cause serious health problems. Molds produce allergens (substances that can cause allergic reactions), irritants, and, in some cases, potentially toxic substances (mycotoxins). Inhaling or touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. It is impossible to get rid of all mold and mold spores indoors. Some mold spores will float through the air and in common dust. Molds are usually not a problem indoors unless mold spores land on a damp spot and begin growing.

Detailed Property Condition Report

Buying a property can be a stressful experience, so be sure to choose someone with your best interest in mind who can provide you with the information needed to make the best decision. Our findings will be compiled in a final Property Condition Report (PCR). The report contains concise details from the walk-through survey, documents procured, the results of interviews, and any other third-party reports ordered as part of the inspection. The report will provide an inventory of the building’s major systems and components, documented photos, and an evaluation of their functional and physical condition. This will highlight the property’s strengths, potential deficiencies, and deferred maintenance issues. It also includes any recommendations on conducting corrective action or requesting follow-up testing by a specialist.
