After the drying
Mold Inspection & Testing in Medford, OR
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.
Independent local assessors · no obligation to proceed
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
What does the irrigation district do?
Delivers water from storage to land that holds rights to it, on a schedule through the growing season. The canals were built for orchards and the city grew around them, so they now run through developed neighborhoods. The rights attached to that water are older than most of the houses standing beside the canals.
Why does the ground go wet in July?
Because the canals are running. They seep along their length as a matter of course, so the ground beside them is at its wettest in the driest months, which is exactly backwards from what a household would expect. A canal running past a property in August is doing what it has always done, which is the difficulty.
Who is responsible for a leaking canal?
The district, and they do respond to reports because seepage is lost water they have to account for. Reporting a specific location with dates is far more effective than a general complaint about a wet yard. Seepage that is documented tends to get attended to, because it is water the district has to account for.
