Mold & Moisture Evaluation
Direct: work with Marc Andrews
Credentials: IICRC Master Water Restorer
California: CSLB #1156896 · C-61/D-64
Service area: Irvine + approximately 20 miles
WHAT $49.99 COVERS
A practical first look at the conditions that can support mold growth.
The goal is to determine whether the concern can be better understood through visible conditions and moisture-related measurements—and whether paid laboratory sampling or remediation should be discussed next.
Infrared does not detect mold. Thermal imaging shows temperature patterns that can help identify areas worth checking with moisture instruments.
Temperature & relative humidity
Document indoor environmental readings relevant to moisture conditions.
Surface moisture checks
Take moisture readings at relevant accessible materials where conditions warrant.
Infrared thermal screening
Look for temperature anomalies that may warrant closer moisture investigation.
ONE SIMPLE STARTING PRICE
Put the $49.99 toward the next step if you need one.
If you proceed with paid mold sampling or mold remediation through Water Damage Services OC, the $49.99 evaluation fee is applied toward that service. Laboratory sampling is never added without discussing the scope and price first.
No paid work needed
We discuss what was observed and whether monitoring or another type of professional should be considered.
Testing would help
Air or surface samples can be collected as a separate paid service and submitted for laboratory analysis.
Remediation is appropriate
If remediation should be considered, it is discussed separately with its own scope and price.
REAL PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Evaluation tools are useful because they connect to what is happening inside the building.
PAID MOLD TESTING WHEN USEFUL
Not every concern needs laboratory sampling.
If sampling will answer a useful question, air or surface samples can be collected and submitted for independent laboratory analysis as a separate paid service.
The number and type of samples—and the price—are discussed before sampling. No surprise sample charges.

BEFORE YOU SCHEDULE
Know exactly what the $49.99 evaluation is—and isn't.
Is mold laboratory testing included in the $49.99?
No. The $49.99 covers the focused visual, humidity, moisture and thermal evaluation described on this page. Laboratory sampling is a separate paid service when appropriate.
Does infrared imaging detect mold?
No. Infrared imaging shows surface temperature patterns. Those patterns may help identify areas that warrant additional investigation or moisture readings, but they do not by themselves prove mold or moisture.
What area do you serve for this offer?
The initial offer is intended for qualifying residential properties in Irvine and surrounding communities within approximately 20 miles.
Do I have to hire you for remediation?
No. If testing or remediation is appropriate, it is discussed separately. You decide whether to proceed.
What happens to the $49.99 if I move forward?
If you purchase mold sampling or remediation from Water Damage Services OC, the $49.99 evaluation fee is applied toward that service.
