Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

We had a very tight deadline to get a house inspected, and Fast Mold Testing made the entire process much less stressful. They were able to schedule the inspection extremely quickly, and we even had the inspection done the same day. They also accommodated our expedited request because we needed the report by a specific deadline. Our inspector, Samuel, was very thorough and knowledgeable throughout the inspection. He explained areas where mold could potentially be present and used several different devices and testing methods during the process. Even while working efficiently and completing the inspection quickly, he never rushed and provided valuable insights about the property and air quality concerns. The final report was incredibly detailed and informative. It clearly explained the differences between the control and test environments and provided explanations about the different types of spores found. Reading through the report helped me better understand mold risks, indoor air quality, and environmental factors that I was previously unaware of. Although there was a slight delay in receiving the report, the communication throughout the process was excellent. Autumn was especially helpful during this stressful time. She stayed in touch consistently, kept me updated on the timeline, followed through on everything, and reassured me that the report would be delivered. She was always available, kind, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. After reviewing the report, I feel much more confident about the basement area where mold had initially been suspected. The report also included very specific recommendations and preventative steps I can follow in the future to help avoid mold problems moving forward. Overall, I highly recommend Fast Mold Testing for their professionalism, responsiveness, thorough inspections, and excellent customer support.

Mold Inspection FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about mold, testing, and our process.

Q2: Why is Pittsburgh at high mold risk?

Pittsburgh sits at the confluence of three rivers. Its hillside neighborhoods absorb rainfall and snowmelt from above. Its century-old housing stock was built without modern moisture barriers. The result is one of the more persistently moisture-stressed residential environments in the Northeast — and most of that housing has never had a certified indoor air quality test.

Q3: Is mold testing available for Pittsburgh renters?

Yes. Pittsburgh renters can book an independent inspection without their landlord's involvement. The certified lab report documents mold species and concentration levels and is suitable for use with landlords, property management companies, and housing authorities. Many Pittsburgh tenants book independently when landlords attribute the smell to 'just how old buildings smell.

Q4: What areas of Pittsburgh homes are most commonly affected by mold?

In Pittsburgh properties, we most commonly find mold in basements with stone or block foundation walls absorbing ground moisture, wall assemblies in older rowhouses where plaster has been absorbing condensation for decades, crawl spaces beneath hillside homes, and HVAC systems in older buildings not specifically assessed for mold.

Q5: Should I get a mold inspection before buying a Pittsburgh rowhouse?

Yes — particularly for properties in Lawrenceville, South Side, Bloomfield, and other historic neighborhoods. Standard home inspections don't test air quality. Pittsburgh rowhouses carry moisture histories that predates the current seller — a certified mold test tells you what that history has produced in the wall assemblies and basement spaces you're about to inherit.
