After the drying
Mold Inspection & Testing in Tempe, AZ
An independent assessor confirms whether the assembly that got wet is actually dry, whether growth started while it was not, and how far it reaches. An inspection after a water loss confirms whether the assembly that got wet is dry now and whether growth started while it was not. Readings are taken in the material, cavities are opened where the readings point, and the result is a written scope of what is dry, what is not, and what has to be corrected for the repair to hold.

On this site, inspection is the last check of a water job rather than the start of a separate one. Most people reach this page because something was wet, was dried, and a smell or a stain came back. The inspection answers whether the material is dry now and whether anything grew while it was not. Nothing here is medical advice; questions about health are for a clinician.
Often needed alongside
- Mold Remediation
Growth and the material it grew into come out under containment, what remains is cleaned, and the assembly is dried and read before anything closes it in.
- Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material.
Frequently asked questions
How does a pool leak get inside the house?
By feeding the ground next to it. The plumbing runs under a deck that usually abuts the building, so a failed line discharges into the soil against the foundation and keeps doing it, because the pool refills itself and nothing announces the loss. The slab edge takes it from there.
Why did nobody notice the pool losing water?
Because most of them top up automatically. A filler keeps the level constant, so a line losing water steadily produces no visible change at all, and in this climate a certain amount of loss to evaporation is expected anyway. It is usually found from the building rather than from the pool.
What confirms the source?
Isolating the pool plumbing and watching whether the loss continues. The system is shut down and the level and the ground are monitored, which separates a plumbing failure from evaporation or from anything in the house. In a climate this dry there are very few other explanations for wet ground.
