Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Greeley, CO
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
The ditch is a century old. Why is it suddenly a foundation problem?
It was always delivering water. What changed is the house. A 1985 basement cut into Pierre Shale next to a lateral is a dam across a flow that used to spread in a field. The ditch company is doing its job; the lot is now asking that water to go around a wall that was never detailed as a canal bank.
May is only three inches. Why do the walls weep then?
Three inches on already-irrigated shale is not three inches on dry prairie. The laterals have the profile wet before the storm, so the burst has nowhere to go but the excavation. A dryland May would soak; this one runs to the basement.
If I shut the lateral off, does the shale dry evenly?
Not in one season. Shale that has been wet for a century does not give that water up on a schedule you can match to a repair. Turning one side off while the other still sees a neighbor's headgate is how slabs on this bench get a gradient. Consistency around the perimeter matters more than the shutoff.
