Testing & Assessment
Mold Inspection & Testing in Livonia, MI
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
Southfield uses the same Farmington gauge. Why is this a different May job?
Southfield's story is clay till and a fully developed Rouge branch shedding across office ground. Livonia's is a ranch grid sitting in the Middle Rouge parkway corridor at mill-pond grade. Same May 3.61 inches; one city sheets, the other sits in a river table.
The parkway looks like a dry greenbelt. Is it still a floodplain?
It is. The park was laid along the Middle Rouge because that land flooded. A ranch basement on the house side of Hines is still on that grade. May rain raising the river a few feet wets soils the 1964 pour never excluded.
A 1964 ranch should have a basement drain. Why does May still win?
Many of these lots never got exterior tile, and the ones that did often outlet into a swale the parkway later cut off. Tile that cannot fall is a loop, not a drain. May then recirculates at the footing of a wall that was poured wet.
