Mold

Mold Testing & Inspections in Iron Mountain, MI​​

U.P. winters bring heavy snow, freezing temperatures and constant freeze-thaw cycles. When the snow is gone, the moisture it leaves behind can linger in a home or commercial building, and that's the perfect setting for hidden mold. Mold often grows where you don't look, and by the time you can see it, the damage may already be widespread.​

UP Construction & Inspection Services (UPCIS, Inc.) offers mold evaluations and mold air quality testing in Iron Mountain, Kingsford and across Michigan's central Upper Peninsula, for homeowners, buyers, sellers and commercial property owners, either with a home inspection or on its own.

Our mold services: a visual mold evaluation (a hands-on look for visible growth and the moisture conditions that feed it), mold air quality testing (air samples analyzed by a licensed lab, with a certified report), and a written mold inspection report of what was found and where. The same visit can also include a full home or commercial inspection, radon testing, or visual asbestos inspection and sampling.

Where mold hides after winter: attics (ice dams and roof leaks), basements (snowmelt seeping through walls or floors), crawlspaces, behind walls and drywall, and around windows and doors. Watch for musty odors, discoloration, damp spots, ceiling stains or soft building materials.

Ben Aho is a Michigan Licensed Residential Home Builder (Lic. #262300072) with more than 2,000 local inspections and 250+ five-star reviews.
