San Diego residents have a new, online source for mold testing and inspection information

(PRWEB) June 21, 2012

Mold Inspection Sciences just launched its new website to help California residents understand the value of quality mold inspection in San Diego. The website also provides information, including informative YouTube videos that explain the fundamentals of mold testing in San Diego, mold investigations, mold odors and roof leaks, allergy testing, and has an active blog section containing lively posts about mold inspections and mold testing authored by the company’s employees.

There are a concerning number of “bad” mold inspection and testing companies operating in the San Diego area. Some are simply ignorant of proper processes and procedures and industry accepted standards, some just choose not to follow them, and some are just dishonest.

Mold Inspection Sciences of San Diego bases its business model on sound, honest, industry recognized and sanctioned practices and procedures. They follow the guidelines and principles of many respected and authoritative organizations including:

-The Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA);
-American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC);
-The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); and
-The California State Department of Health

The company also focuses their business exclusively on the inspection, detection, and testing for mold. They do not perform any mold removal or remediation services, and thus there is no conflict of interest for their clients.

Below are some of the key concepts about mold testing and inspection found on the company’s new website:

• Always hire an inspection company that does not also perform mold remediation or removal;
• Only engage a company that utilizes certified mold inspectors and testors;
• Check the company’s rating and profile with the Better Business Bureau (Mold Inspection Sciences of San Diego has an A+ rating);
• The key to an excellent mold investigation is a proper investigation for moisture intrusion. Without a water problem, there will be no mold problem;
• Mold sampling and laboratory analysis is a key part of the overall mold analysis of a structure;
• Excessive and prolonged mold exposure can be harmful to your health;
• A quality mold inspection is not free or inexpensive, it is a professional, time consuming and detailed service;
• A good mold inspection company does not comment on whether the indoor mold levels found are harmful to the occupants, that is the job of a doctor; and
• Don’t use a mold inspection company that uses fear tactics to gain business.

Important and useful consumer information about mold inspection and mold testing can also be found on Mold Inspection Sciences’ blog: (blog.moldinspectionsciences.com). This blog contains information about mold myths, mold and health, allergies, mold remediation and removal, symptoms of mold exposure, and other mold related topics.
