Mold Testing and Mold Remediation

TERS is a leader in mold inspection, testing, abatement and decontamination; black mold inspection, testing, remediation and removal; and sick building contamination remediation. We provide testing for Stachybotrys mold, as well as mold abatement, decontamination and toxic mold removal.

Mold is a microorganism that has been on earth for millions of years and there are thousands of different kinds. Mold can cause allergic reactions and can even be toxic, creating various health hazards (see Health Riskspage), so if you suspect it’s an issue, please consider consultation and mold removal. Stachybotrys or “black toxic mold” produces a series of toxins that create health risks and should not be allowed to grow unchecked indoors.

When you suspect mold problems, you have two options:  

  • Denial: Deny there is a mold problem, resulting in aggravation of the problem, including further growth of mold and further exposure to health risks.
  • Professional consultation and mold removal: Hire a professional to identify, confirm there is a mold problem, and follow through with mold removal. Through testing and analysis, this professional should provide the best possible, cost effective recommendations and solutions for remediation that will not cause further panic, chemical pollution or additional mold growth.

TERS indoor air quality experts include board-certified microbial inspectors. Our experts perform our mold investigation and assessment of residential and commercial buildings following the American Indoor Air Quality Council methods for investigating sick building syndrome contamination to identify sources of mold and airborne mold contamination. We collect air and surface samples, analyze them, and do a damage and contamination assessment. If contamination is critical, we do an emergency recommendation. TERS building restoration services include a comprehensive report and provides results in three workdays. After a report and recommendation, TERS can follow through with mold removal on the premises.
