We perform detailed mold inspections focused on identifying moisture sources, conditions that support mold growth, and areas of concern throughout the property.


Our process goes beyond a basic visual walkthrough. We employ a variety of tools and methods to evaluate both visible and hidden conditions.


When needed, we tailor the inspection and testing approach based on what we find—so you get relevant, useful information without unnecessary sampling.

Clear, Detailed Reporting

After the inspection, you receive a detailed report outlining our findings, moisture conditions, and any laboratory results if sampling is performed.


We present the information clearly and in context—so you understand what was found, what it means, and what (if anything) should be done next, without unnecessary complexity or alarm.


Reports are typically delivered within 24 hours, with lab results added as they become available.

Think You Might Have Mold?

Signs You May Need a Mold Inspection

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


We help identify moisture issues and determine whether mold may be present.

A thorough mold inspection uses the appropriate tools and methods based on observed conditions:








AIR SAMPLING FOR MOLD SPORES


Hidden mold isn’t always visible. Air testing helps detect what’s circulating in your home. 


Learn why air sampling for mold spores is one of the most important steps in a mold inspection.

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. 


Learn how wall cavity inspections help identify hidden mold.

WALL CAVITY AIR TESTING


Mold often grows where you can’t see it. Air samples help detect hidden contamination inside wall cavities. 


Learn more about wall cavity air sampling and how it works.






INDOOR AIR QUALITY TESTING (NON-MOLD PARTICLE ANALYSIS)


Not all air quality concerns are related to mold. This testing helps identify dust, fibers, and other airborne particles that may be affecting your indoor environment.


Learn when indoor air quality testing is recommended.

Every situation is different. Learn how we decide what to test—and what not to.

and surrounding areas.


Livewell Inspections inspects a wide range of properties, including single-family homes, townhouses, condos, and multi-family dwellings.


Yes. Livewell Inspections offers Environmental Property Monitoring services for vacant, seasonal, and intermittently occupied homes in the Charleston area.


These visits may include humidity and temperature readings, visual leak observations, HVAC checks, moisture-condition awareness, and digital reporting designed to help homeowners and property managers stay informed while properties are unoccupied.


While it is not required, we highly recommend that you be present during the Mold Inspection. This allows us to explain our findings in person and answer any questions you may have.


For the most accurate results, basic preparation—such as keeping windows closed and avoiding cleaning before the inspection—is recommended. You can review full preparation guidelines on our Before Your Inspection page.


Most mold inspections take one to three hours, depending on the size of the property and the areas being inspected.


During the inspection, we evaluate visible conditions, check moisture levels, and look for areas where mold may be present.


If additional sampling is required, more time may be needed.


No. Livewell Inspections provides independent mold inspections and testing only.

We do not perform mold remediation or cleanup services. This ensures our inspections remain objective and unbiased.


If mold or moisture issues are discovered, your report will explain:


• The areas affected
• The conditions contributing to mold growth
• Recommendations for addressing the issue


In many cases the most important step is correcting the moisture source.


Yes. Mold inspections are often requested during home purchases or sales.

An inspection can help identify hidden moisture problems or potential mold issues before closing.


Mold grows when moisture is present. Common causes include:

• Plumbing leaks
• Roof leaks
• Poor ventilation
• High indoor humidity
• Flooding or water damage


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.


For full details about what is included and how pricing works, please see our Pricing page.


Most standard home inspections do not include mold testing.


A dedicated mold inspection evaluates moisture conditions and may include air or surface sampling to determine whether mold is present.
