Moisture and Environmental Testing

Moisture Testing

Are you looking to purchase a home that has a stucco exterior?  You may have certain allergies or air quality concerns and want a mold test done.  Below are some additional types of inspections you may consider that will help you make the best decisions regarding your home.

Inspecta-Homes offers other testing that goes beyond the scope of what a general home inspection covers.

  • Mold Inspection: Involves collecting air and/or swab samples from the home to detect mold. A detailed report explains the findings and their significance for your health and home.
  • Stucco Testing: This invasive test checks for hidden moisture issues in stucco exteriors, which can lead to structural damage if not addressed. Permission from the homeowner is required for this inspection, and a report is provided with the testing results.
  • Wood Foundation Inspection: For homes with wood foundations, this inspection evaluates moisture levels in the wood and drainage around the house, which is crucial for the foundation’s integrity. This is also an invasive test requiring homeowner consent.
  • Water Testing: A Safe Water Sample Package is available, which tests contaminants like bacteria, nitrates, arsenic, and optional metals like lead and copper. Water samples are drawn from faucets and promptly delivered to a lab for analysis. Results are typically available on business days.

Each of these tests can help homeowners make more informed decisions when purchasing a home, particularly when it comes to potential environmental hazards or structural issues.
