Independent inspection, without remediation sales
MOLD Rx provides inspection and testing only. We do not perform mold remediation or sell reconstruction. Our role is to document conditions in the agreed inspection areas and help you understand whether further attention is needed.
What is post-remediation verification?
Post-remediation verification evaluates conditions after mold cleanup. Sometimes called a mold clearance inspection or clearance testing, PRV considers the work area, moisture conditions, cleanliness, and any sampling included in the agreed scope. Laboratory results are considered alongside the inspection findings.
What the inspection can include
Visual inspection and cleanliness
We examine accessible areas of the remediation work for visible mold-like growth, remaining dust or debris, and conditions that may need additional cleaning or evaluation. The inspection scope and any access limitations are documented.
Moisture checks
Moisture measurements help evaluate whether accessible materials remain damp. We consider the reported water source and drying work alongside conditions observed during the visit.
Sampling when appropriate
Air or surface sampling may be included when it can answer a useful inspection question or address the project’s verification criteria. Sample locations and quantity are discussed in advance. Collected samples receive accredited laboratory analysis and are interpreted with the observed conditions.
Written findings before reconstruction
Receive documented observations, moisture findings, and laboratory results when sampling is performed. Findings help you and your contractor discuss the next steps before repaired areas are enclosed. If concerns remain, further cleaning, drying, or evaluation may be needed before a follow-up inspection.
When to arrange PRV
Contact MOLD Rx while planning the remediation work so the inspection scope, timing, and any project-specific criteria can be discussed. Arrange the visit after cleanup and drying are complete and before reconstruction conceals the areas to be inspected. Coordinate access and preparation with the inspector and remediation contractor.
Share the original assessment or remediation plan, the areas treated, the work completed, and your reconstruction schedule if available. Mention any requirements from another project professional before booking.

Post-remediation verification FAQs
Is PRV the same as mold removal?
No. Remediation is the cleanup work. PRV is an inspection after that work. MOLD Rx provides independent inspection and testing without selling remediation or repairs.
Does every PRV inspection require air testing?
Sampling depends on the agreed scope, observed conditions, and project criteria. Discuss your project with the inspector rather than choosing a sample count in advance.
Does a clearance result guarantee a mold-free building?
No. Findings describe the areas evaluated and conditions at the time of inspection, within the agreed scope and access limitations. They do not guarantee that mold is absent from every concealed area or that future moisture problems will not occur.
How much does PRV cost?
Pricing depends on the size of the work area, inspection scope, and sampling needs. Contact MOLD Rx for an estimate and to confirm availability and reporting time for your project.
