To helping them know what is going on in the house they are looking to purchase.
Describe an inspection that you are particularly proud of: (Specifics on mold issue, Client relationship, What was rewarding about it)
Last month I had a customer who could not enter the house. Every room in the house had mold in it. I was able to find out where the mold originated and document how the mold got moved around the house. Finding the source and how it cross contaminated the rest of the rooms allowed me to write a comprehensive report that provided the steps for removal. The client was so happy that she could shop around and get estimates and begin the process of having her home clean again.
Why should a prospective client choose you to perform their mold inspection?:
Clients should choose MI&T in the Boston area because I do my inspection slowly and I try to get everything covered using my tools and my experience. I don't belittle the customer and I provide easy-to-understand information. I am reliable and very knowledgeable and always have their best interest in mind.
Mold Inspection & Testing Boston Massachusetts
Unlike “free mold inspections” that are advertised by other companies. We offer Boston mold testing with both air and surface sample collection. How does it work you ask? We attach what are called spore traps to an air pump to collect air from the areas you are concerned about. Those air samples are compared to a control sample which is taken outside to see what normal levels of mold are in your area. After our appointment, we ship off all the tests taken at the location to an independent lab for analysis. They will inform us of the findings from each spore trap. We will know what species of mold and the exact amount of each type present. Surface samples are also collected with a swab or tape lift when visible growth is present as certain types of fungal growth are not easily airborne.
Having all this information at our disposal is crucial information in determining what does or does not need to be done in your home or business. We happily tell clients if levels are normal and they need no further action since we do not benefit in anyway from the removal process. For the unfortunate customers that will have to complete some sort of Boston mold removal; the samples we collect provide valuable information. Our report will be evidence that a problem exists, where the source is, and what needs to be done to fix it. A removal company will actually prefer our expertise on a the remediation process as they will not have to guess about what needs to be done.
As you can see, our service is very valuable. Most people we deal with have not dealt with an indoor mold growth problem before.
