Independent mold inspection in Lacey and north Thurston County, backed by an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab. Thermal imaging, plain-English reports, and zero remediation upsell — we don’t fix mold, we just tell you what’s there. Inspections start at $150.
Lacey grew mostly after the 1960s, so a lot of its housing is 1970s to 1990s construction: split-levels, tract homes, and manufactured-home communities, many now old enough for roofs, plumbing, and window seals to start failing. The city wraps around Long, Hicks, and Pattison lakes, and it has a large rental market tied to nearby Joint Base Lewis-McChord. With frequent move-ins and move-outs, a small leak can go unreported between tenants and turn into a bigger problem.
A thorough walkthrough, the right tools, lab-backed sampling on request, and a written report you can hand to insurance, your buyer, or your remediation contractor. No corners cut, no padding the bill.
Every accessible area inspected — living spaces, bathrooms, kitchens, basements, crawlspaces, attics, utility rooms. We document moisture readings, humidity levels, and any visible signs of growth or water intrusion.
Thermal imaging reveals temperature anomalies behind walls and ceilings — the cold spots that indicate hidden moisture from leaks, condensation, or vapor intrusion. Included on every Complete Mold Inspection at no extra charge.
Air samples capture mold spores from the indoor environment and ship to the lab for species identification and concentration measurement. Most useful when there are health symptoms but no visible growth, or for real estate documentation.
Tape-lift or swab samples from suspected growth, sent to the lab for confirmation and species ID. Especially useful when you can see something but don’t know if it’s mold — or which kind.
A PDF report with every area inspected documented, photo evidence, moisture readings, lab results (when sampled), and clear plain-English recommendations. Formatted to share with insurance, realtors, or remediation contractors.
If your situation doesn’t actually need an inspection, we’ll tell you on the phone before booking. We make zero money turning away non-jobs — we just don’t want to charge you $150 for a problem that didn’t exist.

Common signs: persistent musty smell, visible discoloration, peeling paint, warped baseboards, ongoing respiratory symptoms after moving in, recent water damage. In Thurston County, the long wet season, older homes, and crawlspaces all raise the baseline risk.
Yes. Landlords and property managers are a big part of our work: tenant complaints, turnovers between tenants, and disputes where both sides need an independent answer. Because we do not perform remediation, the report is unbiased, and it is formatted to share with tenants, owners, and insurance.
Yes. Reports are formatted for buyer/seller use and routinely shared with realtors, escrow officers, and insurance adjusters. We’re independent — we don’t perform remediation — so the report is unbiased. We work around tight closing timelines.

Only if the data says so. We don’t perform remediation — that’s a deliberate separation. Many of our reports conclude no remediation is needed, which is the answer customers most often want and rarely get from inspectors who also sell the cleanup.
