LIVEWELL INSPECTIONS

Our inspections focus on identifying moisture conditions and areas that may support mold growth within the property.
We use professional diagnostic tools such as:
• moisture meters
• thermal imaging cameras
• air and surface sampling when appropriate
These tools allow us to evaluate areas that may not be visible during a standard walkthrough.

Livewell Inspections provides professional mold inspections and mold testing for homeowners, buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals throughout the Charleston area.
We provide independent mold inspections only and do not offer mold remediation services.
Because we do not perform remediation, our evaluations remain objective and unbiased.

After the inspection, you receive a detailed report outlining our findings, moisture conditions, and any laboratory results if sampling is performed.
Our goal is to give you clear, straightforward information so you understand the condition of the property and the appropriate next steps.

Mold problems are not always visible. A professional inspection may be helpful if you notice any of the following:
• Musty or damp odors inside the home
• Visible mold growth or discoloration on walls or ceilings
• Recent leaks, flooding, or water damage
• Condensation or high humidity in crawlspaces or attics
• Unexplained allergy symptoms that worsen indoors
• Buying or selling a home and want to check for hidden issues
An inspection helps identify moisture issues and determine whether mold may be present.
AIR SAMPLING FOR MOLD SPORES
Hidden mold isn’t always visible. Air testing helps detect what’s circulating in your home.

FINDING HIDDEN MOISTURE
Not all problems are visible. Thermal imaging helps detect hidden moisture that can lead to mold growth.
TESTING VISIBLE MOLD
When mold is visible, sampling helps identify exactly what type is present.
WALL CAVITY INSPECTION
Mold often grows where you can’t see it. We use a small camera to visually confirm mold growth inside wall cavities without unnecessary damage.
WALL CAVITY AIR TESTING

Mold grows when moisture is present. Common causes include:

Identifying and correcting moisture problems is the key to preventing mold growth.
A preliminary inspection report is usually delivered within 24 hours of the inspection.
If laboratory testing is performed, the final report will be issued after lab results are received, which typically takes 1–3 business days.
Mold inspections typically start at $450, which includes the inspection and up to two samples.
Additional samples are $100 each if needed.
