What is the primary purpose of a mold inspection?

The primary purpose of a mold inspection is to identify the presence of mold and assess potential health risks. This involves a thorough examination of the property to locate mold growth, determine the source of moisture that contributes to mold development, and evaluate the extent of any mold contamination. By identifying mold and understanding its potential impact on human health, inspectors can provide property owners with necessary information to take remedial actions, ensuring a safe living environment and mitigating health risks associated with mold exposure.

While addressing water damage, improving aesthetics, or evaluating property value might be secondary outcomes or considerations, they do not align with the fundamental objective of conducting a mold inspection, which is specifically focused on mold detection and health implications.
