After the drying
Mold Inspection & Testing in Ogden, UT
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
What is the secondary water system?
A separate untreated supply used for irrigation, delivered to each property in turn on a fixed rotation rather than on demand. A household gets its turn on a set day, takes what it needs in that window, and the water then moves on to the next lot.
Why does a basement go wet on the same day each week?
Because that is the turn. A large volume applied to the ground around the house on a schedule shows up in the basement a few hours later, every time, and that regularity is the clearest signal there is that the source is irrigation and not weather.
What is worth changing about the watering?
Where it goes rather than how much. Keeping the delivery away from the first few feet around the building, and taking a turn in two shorter runs instead of one long soak, both reduce what reaches the foundation without giving up the allotment.
