What to Expect During a Professional Mould Inspection

Booking your first mould inspection? Here’s exactly what happens so you know what to prepare and what questions to ask.

Before the Inspection Don’t clean mould before the inspector arrives — they need to see and sample it. Note any rooms where you smell mould or notice symptoms. Have your building’s history ready (age, renovations, known leaks).

During the Inspection (60-90 minutes) Visual assessment: Every room inspected for visible mould, water staining, and structural issues Moisture mapping: Using electronic moisture meters on walls, floors, and ceilings to identify hidden dampness Thermal imaging: Infrared camera reveals cold spots where condensation occurs Air sampling (optional): Spore trap cassettes capture airborne mould for lab analysis Subfloor check: Under-house inspection for moisture and mould (if accessible) Roof cavity check: Roof space moisture and ventilation assessment After the Inspection You receive a written report with findings, identified moisture sources, mould species (if tested), and a remediation plan with cost estimates.
