Buying a Home in Atlanta: When Mold Testing May Make Sense

Certain property conditions can make mold testing or inspection worth considering during an Atlanta-area home purchase.

Certain property conditions can make mold testing or inspection worth considering during an Atlanta-area home purchase.

Quick answer

Certain property conditions can make mold testing or inspection worth considering during an Atlanta-area home purchase.

Why the question matters

Musty odor, prior remediation, visible staining, crawlspace or basement moisture, and recent leak repairs are all examples of conditions that may justify follow-up.

Inspection and testing work together

A laboratory result becomes more useful when it is connected to the actual property: where the sample came from, what was observed, what moisture history exists, and what decision the owner is trying to make. That is why inspection and testing should be viewed as related tools rather than competing services.

What to do with the information

The next step depends on the findings. That may mean monitoring, correcting a moisture source, investigating a concealed area, planning remediation, or using post-remediation verification after cleanup.
