With 20 years of home inspection experience, I have gathered the knowledge and wisdom to help inform you to make the right decision regarding the purchase of your new home. Buying a home can be stressful and sometimes scary. That's because you are spending the most amount of money in one place, than ever before. Making a mistake can ruin your financial future. After an inspection with me, I promise you it will no longer be scary and a lot less stressful. I will use those 20 years of experience to teach you all about your new home and make your buying decision much easier. After all, this is supposed to be a fun time in your life! I am a Father of 6 and a grandfather! My hobbies are golf, motorcycles, and fly fishing. I really enjoy being outdoors in Gods creation either playing golf with my wife or riding through the mountains on my Harley. I am active in our church ministry, and look for ways to help others where there is a need.
"Frank returned my initial call promptly. Explained the process completely. On day of inspection Frank was very thorough and took the time to explain what he had found so that I understood. He then went beyond to explain why the problem was there and recommendations for repair. The day after the inspection I had a question. I called and within an hour I Had my question answered. I would recommend " A Closer Look" for all your home inspection needs."

When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it is mold in your home, school, place of work, or apartment there are many factors to consider. Are you going to be involved in a mold lawsuit? Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? Will you be seeking medical damages? Will you need expert witnesses? If so, what kind? Do you just want to test to be sure your environment is safe? Do you need post mold remediation testing to ensure a good job was done? These and other factors are questions which need to be answered before any environmental testing starts. It is important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages and property damages require different environmental tests to prove your case in court. Tests that a common, or inexperienced, mold inspector would not typically use or know to use.

Some companies offer a no‑cost phone or video consultation that screens for red flags. If the discussion points to a real issue, the pro will recommend a paid on‑site inspection. The complimentary call clarifies whether you need full testing, but it isn’t a substitute for samples, lab work, or a written report. Always confirm what the free service covers before you schedule.
A standard inspection, which includes basic air and surface samples, takes an average of two hours. If the pro needs to probe hidden spaces, such as wall cavities or ductwork, plan on up to six hours. Extra time allows the inspector to reach tight areas, collect additional samples, and document findings. Lab analysis is a separate process and often adds several business days to the overall timeframe before you receive the full report.
Mold thrives where moisture lingers and air flow is poor. Common hotspots include bathroom walls, kitchen backsplashes, window sills, HVAC vents, fireplaces, crawl spaces, and enclosed attics. Check these areas regularly—especially after leaks or high‑humidity weather—to catch growth early and avoid costly repairs.
Unchecked mold can knock 20% to 37% off a home’s market value because buyers worry about hidden damage and health risks. Even after remediation, visible staining or a history of major moisture issues can still lower offers and prolong the time on the market. Addressing mold quickly protects both your property’s structural integrity and its resale appeal.
