If you are observing strange conditions in the indoor environment of your home or business in the beautiful area of Alexandria , Virginia, you may have a issue with mold. Unless you have dealt with problems like this before, chances are that you are not sure who to go to or what to do next. That’s where Mold Inspection & Testing comes in! The inspectors at Mold Inspection & Testing Alexandria, VA are in business to assist home and business owners just like yourself who are concerned mold may be negatively impacting their indoor air quality.
Elevated mold for an indoor environment is not something that should be taken without caution. Recent studies show that breathing in the spores that are released into the air by this fungus on a normal basis can have serious health consequences; this is especially true for the young and elderly, as well as individuals with pre-existing conditions. Unfortunately, companies that handle the cleaning of these types of problems often take advantage of people’s apprehension in order to get more work. Other than giving you the steps to remedy a problem, we are not linked with any part of the remediation process. For this reason, you can trust that the results you get from us are in fact accurate.
