-
In a comprehensive mould and moisture assessment, specialised tools such as thermal imaging devices, digital moisture mapping equipment, and techniques for water vapour assessment are utilised.
-
An independent inspection is important because it ensures the assessment is unbiased and focused solely on identifying issues and risks, not selling remediation services or products. Keeping inspection and remediation separate reduces conflicts of interest and supports evidence-based recommendations. This approach is also recommended under the IICRC S520 standard, which recognises that independent assessment helps ensure appropriate scoping, clearer reporting, and better-informed decisions for occupants.
-
For an average-sized home, an inspection typically takes around five hours, though this may vary depending on the number and complexity of issues identified. Unlike many services, MouldWise will remain on site for up to eight hours if required, without additional charges or fees for extended inspection time or longer report preparation. Reports generally take one full day to write on average, once laboratory results have been received.
