Professional Mold Inspection Services in Savannah, GA

If you smell something musty, see discoloration on walls or ceilings, or have experienced recent water damage in your Savannah home, a professional mold inspection should be your first call. Our certified mold inspectors serve the entire Savannah area – from the Historic District to Pooler, Richmond Hill to Tybee Island.

Savannah’s subtropical climate makes mold one of the most common – and most misunderstood – home problems in the region. Average humidity above 75% year-round means mold doesn’t need a major water event to take hold. A slow plumbing drip, inadequate crawl space ventilation, or a single bathroom without a working exhaust fan can create the conditions for significant mold growth in weeks.

Our inspectors use a combination of visual examination, moisture meters, thermal imaging, and air sampling to find mold where you can’t see it – inside walls, under flooring, in attic insulation, and in crawl spaces. Every inspection includes a detailed written report with findings, photos, and our recommended remediation plan.

  • Remediation recommendations with priority ranking

When Do You Need a Mold Inspection in Savannah?

We recommend scheduling a professional mold inspection in any of the following situations:

Before Buying a Home

A standard home inspection rarely includes mold testing. Given Savannah’s humidity and the age of much of the local housing stock, a dedicated mold inspection before closing can save you tens of thousands in remediation costs – or give you leverage to negotiate. Our buyers’ inspection report includes a full moisture assessment and clear pass/fail guidance.

After Water Damage

Mold begins growing within 24–48 hours of water intrusion. If your home has experienced flooding, a burst pipe, roof leak, or HVAC condensation issue, a mold inspection within the first week is critical. Even after drying, invisible mold colonies can remain active inside walls and under flooring.

You Smell Musty Odors

A persistent musty smell — even without visible mold — almost always indicates hidden mold growth. Mold produces mycotoxins and microbial volatile organic compounds (mVOCs) that cause that characteristic “old basement” smell. If you notice it, mold is present somewhere, and a professional inspection will find it.

Before or After Remediation

Pre-remediation inspections establish a baseline. Post-remediation inspections (clearance testing) confirm the work is complete and your home meets safe mold levels. We provide clearance testing as a standalone service for any remediation job — whether we did the work or not.

Annual Preventive Inspection

For Savannah homeowners, an annual mold inspection is one of the best investments you can make. We identify developing problems before they become expensive ones — particularly in crawl spaces and attics that are rarely accessed.

Our Mold Inspection Process

  • Step 1 – Exterior Assessment: We check the perimeter for drainage issues, foundation cracks, and exterior moisture sources that feed indoor mold
  • Step 2 – Interior Walkthrough: All living areas, closets, and utility spaces are checked for visible mold, water stains, and musty odors
  • Step 3 – High-Risk Zones: Crawl space, attic, bathrooms, kitchen, HVAC air handler and ductwork receive thorough inspection
  • Step 4 – Moisture Mapping: Moisture meter readings are taken throughout and documented in a floor plan
  • Step 5 – Sample Collection: Air and/or surface samples are collected and sent to our certified laboratory (results in 24–48 hours)
  • Step 6 – Report Delivery: You receive a comprehensive written report with photos, findings, lab results, and our remediation recommendations
