Mold Inspections
You may not always see signs of mold, but you may detect a musty or dank odour in a specific room or area. You may consistently feel unwell or have frequent cold symptoms, which then go away when you stay elsewhere. These could be signs of a hidden mold issue and a reason to have a full home mold inspection.
Our certified and experienced mold technician, Roy Piper, will conduct a walk-through inspection with you. Roy will answer your questions and examine any specific areas of concern. He will inspect the attic for mold and check out the ventilation systems and insulation conditions up there. Roy will also test bathroom fans, measure humidity levels indoors and compare them to levels outside, inspect the crawlspace or basement, check for any water intrusion, and may use an infrared camera. Contact us at Home SOULutions for more information or to schedule an inspection.

If you cannot see your mold but you have a musty or earthy smell or family members have been suffering from respiratory issues - we suggest starting with a home humidity & mold inspection and possibly air quality testing to test for allergens. Click Here for more information on a home inspection.
Health Canada advises that high concentrations of airborne mold spores may have a number of adverse health effects. These include eye, nose, and throat irritation; coughing and phlegm build-up; wheezing and shortness of breath; and allergic reactions. Some studies show that mold may also affect your immune system.
Mold is often discovered by a building inspector during the sale process. Buyers, insurance companies, and finance companies will often require that the mold professionally remediated. So if you want that quick sale - let us turn your mold into Sold!
Once mold has been identified in your home, isolating the type or measuring the spore count does not change the procedures for mold removal. Mold will actually ‘eat’ the structure of your home. It will reduce the value of your property. We can remove the mold in your home often in less than a day.
Take care of your family, find out about our mold removal processes and call us today.
Relative Humidity
Temperature and humidity are major factors that will contribute to mold growth. Relative Humidity (RH) will depend on your location and will change with the seasons.
Common Causes of Mold
Mold spores can be found everywhere in the air outside as well as inside—they can be carried in on our clothes, on our pets, or through open windows
Mold Removal Methods
There are various methods frequently used to remove mould—sandblasting or soda blasting, encapsulation, or applying one of the many products available at your local hardware store—they are not all the same nor are they equally effective.
