We were about to finish our basement and wanted it checked first given the age of the house. The inspection found a small moisture issue near the foundation we wouldn't have noticed, and we got it handled before it became a bigger problem.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Asheville-area neighbors
Called about a musty smell and they walked me through every step before starting. The area was contained properly and the odor was gone when they finished.
Clear pricing, no surprises. The mold remediation took exactly as long as they said it would.

Local knowledge
Mold Inspection for Asheville, NC homes
Mold Inspection in Asheville tends to start the same way mold does across Buncombe County: bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms in Asheville where everyday humidity has nowhere to go. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Hillcrest Apts, Woodfin, Biltmore Forest and the rest of Asheville call us.
We handle mold inspection for Asheville the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in Mills River, about 25 minutes from our Mills River base, so we can usually reach a Asheville home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
Asheville specifics
What Mold Inspection in Asheville really involves
Most Mold Inspection jobs in the area trace back to humid seasons, a pattern we see week after week. Older and newer homes alike need Mold Inspection, from the newer builds near Swannanoa to the oldest ones in town. The reason Mold Inspection comes up so often here is simple: plumbing leaks and poor ventilation, working on local homes month after month. What sets Mold Inspection apart is where it hides: basements, crawl spaces, and behind walls, exactly where homeowners rarely look.
A Asheville home that needs Mold Inspection almost always has a moisture story behind it, and it usually starts with humid seasons. Around here, mold inspection tends to settle into basements, crawl spaces, and behind walls before anyone in the house notices it. Mold Inspection is one of the more common calls we get from homeowners around Asheville. For a home in this area, mold inspection starts with finding the moisture, because the water is what feeds the mold.
Here is how Mold Inspection usually goes:
- Lay out a clear scope for what removal would involve
- Use moisture meters to find damp materials behind the surface
- Explain the likely cause in plain words, not jargon
- Check the usual sources: roof, plumbing, grading, and ventilation
- Photograph and map what we find, room by room
We are about 25 minutes from our Mills River base, so mold inspection often happens the same day you call.
