  • When there are health issues among household members including sneezing, coughing, headaches that can’t be explained or pinpointed by a doctor. A mold testing can confirm if the doctor or the patient has a suspicion of mold growth that might be causing these health issues.
  • If you are selling or purchasing a home, mold testing should be done.
