We were about to finish our basement and wanted it checked first given the age of the house. The inspection found a small moisture issue near the foundation we wouldn't have noticed, and we got it handled before it became a bigger problem.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Clinton-area neighbors
Called about a musty smell and they walked me through every step before starting. The area was contained properly and the odor was gone when they finished.
Very thorough mold inspection. They explained the lab results in plain words and gave us a fair quote.

Local knowledge
Mold Inspection for Clinton, IA homes
Mold Inspection in Clinton tends to start the same way mold does across Clinton County: spring thaw and river flooding pushing water into older basements and crawl spaces. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Lyons, Camanche, Chaney and the rest of Clinton call us.
We handle mold inspection for Clinton the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in De Witt, about 30 minutes from our De Witt base, so we can usually reach a Clinton home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
Clinton specifics
What Mold Inspection in Clinton really involves
What sets Mold Inspection apart is where it hides: basements, crawl spaces, and behind walls, exactly where homeowners rarely look. The reason Mold Inspection comes up so often here is simple: roof and plumbing leaks in Clinton homes, working on local homes month after month. We keep Mold Inspection contained and tidy, so the rest of the home near Almont stays livable while we work. If you have noticed a damp, earthy smell you cannot place in your home, mold inspection is worth a call before the damp reaches the framing.
We handle Mold Inspection for homes from Camanche to Almont and the surrounding area the same careful way. A Clinton home that needs Mold Inspection almost always has a moisture story behind it, and it usually starts with roof and plumbing leaks in Clinton homes. For a home in this area, mold inspection starts with finding the moisture, because the water is what feeds the mold. Our crew has done Mold Inspection across Clinton County enough to know how spring thaw and river flooding pushing water into older basements and crawl spaces moves through these homes.
A Mold Inspection visit tends to run like this:
- Recommend testing only where it actually adds value
- Check the usual sources: roof, plumbing, grading, and ventilation
- Walk the home and note every spot that shows or smells like mold
- Explain the likely cause in plain words, not jargon
- Use moisture meters to find damp materials behind the surface
Since we are only about 30 minutes from our De Witt base, a call for Mold Inspection rarely waits long.

No, many inspections happen because of a musty smell, past water damage, or just wanting a clear picture before a renovation or home purchase.
