Professional Background:
My name is Jason Ramirez and I am a mold inspector with MI&T. I have been with MI&T for 2 years however I have worked in construction for over 25yrs. This has given me the knowledge to efficiently find leaks/ the source of moisture that creates mold growth. I live in Sacramento and have been here for 30 years. I love Sacramento due its diversity geologically and racially. I love to meet new people and learn about their cultures. I like that I am able to explore the many beautiful swimming holes here along with being close enough to drive to the surrounding beaches, lakes, hiking trails and camping areas. I also lived and still have family in the bay area so I don’t mind driving for inspections in this area.
Being a mold inspector is very rewarding to me. I like helping people and I pay attention to detail. I am able to notice things others don’t. I like the challenge it brings me to find the source of water intrusion or moisture. It's also nice to be able to meet new people every day.
One of the many inspections I am particularly proud of was a family that had a newborn baby and an elderly parent living with them. The baby was having breathing and skin issues and the parent was also having health issues. After doing the inspection I was able to inform them that they did in fact have a mold issue. This mold in particular could possibly cause hemorrhaging in newborns lungs and other health issue in general. After informing the family they were able to have the remediation done and remove all the mold. I later received a call from them thanking me cause the baby and the elderly parent were getting better since they were no longer breathing in all the mold.
As your mold inspector I do my best not to miss a possible issue. I personally had a daughter that had leukemia and mold was a big issue for her so I try to be as thorough as possible. I move boxes, small furniture, carpets etc.…. things that could possibly hide a possible mold issue. I use a moisture meter, an infrared camera if a leak is suspected, smoker to test ventilation/ exhaust fans. I also have a tool to test humidity in your home.
Mold Inspection & Testing Folsom
So rest easy resident of Folsom ,California, if there is a problem with fungal growth in your home or business, the expert assesors at Mold Inspection & Testing will find the problem and identify the origin. When it comes to mold, testing is the only means that can get you the answers you need. All of the samples we collect are sent to an independent laboratory for breakdown. They provide a comprehensive report of all our conclusions that can be used as facts for disputes in which someone like a landlord, seller, or building management is trying to downplay the significance of a problem within your home. At the same time, we will be happy to act as a representative for any of our clients by explaining and backing whatever claims our test results show. After this is complete you will have hard facts of what type of mold is present within your home or business and exactly how much of it is there. It will show without a doubt whether or not a problem exists and how serious it is.
Our mold inspection company in Folsom ,California uses state of the art technology like thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to find the best places to test. Our assesors then gather air/surface samples to reveal what species of mold are present in your air. This is the only precise way to establish what is going on with your indoor air quality. Be aware of unethical practices like offering a “free mold inspection”, as these are typically promoted by remediation companies. As mentioned earlier, the company handling your analysis should be independent of whoever you plan to hire to complete the necessary work. Just because you see mold does not mean a remeditation company is required to handle the work as some mold is common and non-toxic. The only way to find out for sure precisely what is happening with your indoor environment is to mold test Folsom. Without air and surface sample collection, anything else is just a guess.
Once the test results come in, we will call you directly and let you know whether or not elevated levels of mold exist at the location of the Folsom mold inspection. If elevated levels of mold do exist, you will be offered a step-by-step protocol to get your indoor environment back to normal. If you are being provided with these detailed steps; chances are we will be recommending that a professional with all the necessary equipment performs the work. This is valuable information for whatever company you go with to handle the remediation process. Making sure only needed work is done and the job is completed the first time around saves a lot of time and cost. The best removal companies not only prefer that an initial inspection is completed before a removal, but also that a clearance test is taken after to ensure everything has been completed correctly. This keeps them honest, but more importantly guarantees that your indoor air quality has returned to normal.
We hope that you have learned a little more about the entire process. If you have any more questions we are standing by to assist you in any way we can. Call us anytime at 916-905-5391
