Mold Inspections

At Classic City Home Inspection, we offer professional mold inspections for homes and properties throughout Athens, Watkinsville, Winder, GA, and surrounding areas. Mold can be a hidden health hazard, often forming in areas where moisture goes unnoticed—such as behind walls, under flooring, in crawlspaces, or around leaky plumbing. Whether you’re buying a home, concerned about a musty odor, or responding to recent water damage, a mold inspection can help identify issues before they become serious.

David, an experienced and licensed home inspector, brings the knowledge and care needed to evaluate mold risks and provide clear, honest insight into what’s happening inside your home.

Why Mold Inspections Matter

Mold can affect both your home’s structure and your health. Long-term exposure to mold spores may cause respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and other health concerns—especially for children, seniors, or individuals with asthma or weakened immune systems. Structurally, mold often grows in areas of trapped moisture and can lead to wood rot, drywall damage, and insulation breakdown if left untreated.

A professional mold inspection is your first line of defense. It helps:

  • Confirm whether mold is present
  • Identify moisture sources contributing to growth
  • Locate hidden problem areas behind walls or in crawlspaces
  • Provide documentation for landlords, buyers, sellers, or remediation specialists
  • Offer peace of mind after leaks, flooding, or HVAC issues

What We Look For

During a mold inspection, David conducts a detailed evaluation of the property, focusing on areas where mold is most likely to thrive. This includes:

  • Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry areas
  • Basements and crawlspaces
  • Attics and poorly ventilated rooms
  • Areas around windows, plumbing fixtures, and water heaters
  • HVAC systems and ductwork

David uses visual assessment methods to identify signs of visible mold, water staining, discoloration, warping, or high humidity. If elevated risk or mold presence is suspected, we may recommend further testing or remediation by a certified mold specialist.

Common Signs of Mold

If you notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule a mold inspection:

  • Persistent musty odor
  • Visible spots or discoloration on walls or ceilings
  • Recent leaks or flooding
  • Peeling paint or warped drywall
  • Condensation on windows or pipes
  • Worsening allergy or asthma symptoms indoors

Early detection allows you to address the issue quickly—before it spreads and leads to larger, more expensive problems.

Clear Reports and Next Steps

After your mold inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report outlining all findings, including photos and notes. David will explain the severity of the problem, the likely source of moisture, and recommend appropriate next steps. Because we do not perform mold remediation, our inspections remain unbiased and focused solely on giving you the facts.
