After the drying
Mold Inspection & Testing in Green Bay, WI
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 is red clay and why does it matter?
It is the fine sediment left on the bed of a glacial lake, and it is about as impermeable as soil gets. Water does not travel through it in any useful sense, so anything that gets into the ground here stays more or less where it went in.
Why do gravel drainage trenches fail in it?
Because a trench full of stone only works if water can leave the bottom of it. Surrounded by clay, it becomes a container: it fills during the wet season and stays full, and the water in it sits against whatever it was meant to protect.
What actually drains a lot here?
A pipe to somewhere lower, not a soakaway of any kind. Every drainage solution here has to carry water away by gravity to an outlet, and where there is no outlet, a pump. Ground absorption is not available in any useful quantity.
