What Is A Mold
Inspection
(IN BRIEF)
A mold inspection is a non-invasive visual
inspection for mold and conditions that cause
mold. The purpose of a mold inspection is to
visually identify and document two things: 1. visible indoor mold growth; and 2. suspect conditions that are typically indicators
of indoor mold growth.

Mold
Testing
(IN BRIEF)
Mold testing is done by collecting samples -
either from a surface, or from the air, or from
dust. The purpose of sampling
to confirm or rule out that
indoor mold growth is presently occurring, or
has occurred in the past. Testing is not always
necessary to prove indoor mold growth.

How Is A Mold
Inspection Done?
AMI mold inspections are performed using the
latest non-destructive state-of-the-art
technology such as infrared thermal imaging
cameras and electronic moisture detection
equipment. No physical damage is ever done to
any structure. Few mold inspectors offer thermal
imaging because of the high cost of infrared
cameras. Those who do offer it typically charge
$200 to $400 in addition to their standard
inspection fees. But not AMI. thermal imaging is
included in our standard mold inspection price.
