Mold testing for Sunset Hills is handled the right way. The technicians find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then the area is contained and the mold is removed safely.

Is testing necessary if mold is already visible?
If mold is visible with a clear moisture source, testing may not be needed before remediation. It is more applicable for documentation or ambiguous cases.
