Moisture before mold
Mold removed without fixing the water comes back, so the source is always part of the scope.
About us
Inspectors who start with the water, then deal with the mold
We inspect, test and remove mold across North Jersey and the shore. Every job starts the same way: find the moisture, because that is what decides everything else.

Who we are
A mold company that reads the building first
Mold Inspection Margate does its own inspections, lab sampling, contained removal, water cleanup and moisture fixes. The name comes from our head office in Margate City, which covers Atlantic County; most of our work runs from the service office on Johnson St in Newark, which covers Essex County and the North Jersey counties around it.
What ties the work together is a simple habit: we read the building before we recommend anything. Meters, a thermal camera and a borescope come out on every visit, and what they show decides whether you need drying, testing, removal or just a fix to a fan or a drain.
How we work
Four rules we keep on every job
Samples with a purpose
Lab work is added when it answers a real question, not by default.
Containment on every removal
Plastic, negative air and HEPA cleaning keep the rest of the house clean.
Proof before closing
Readings and clearance come before any wall or floor is closed up again.
On a visit
What you can expect when we come out
On a visit you can expect readings and photos of every finding, a plain explanation of what is wet and why, and a written scope that separates what has to be done now from what can wait. Samples are added only when a result would change the plan, and every air sample is compared with outdoor air taken the same day.
We do not pad a scope. If a problem is small enough to handle yourself, we say so and tell you how. If a job needs a plumber, a roofer or an electrician for the source, we note exactly what they need to fix.
When we are busy
If every inspector is committed
Our line is answered 24 hours a day. On the rare occasions when every inspector is already committed, for example during a major storm, we may forward your call to another trusted local provider so you still get help quickly. You will always be told who is coming before anyone arrives.
