Mold in Your Workplace

Converse conducts indoor air quality (IAQ) monitoring and sampling for a variety of businesses and local government entities to assess overall indoor air quality. Many of our clients' concerns involve mold. Mold in indoor air typically results from a water source or leak inside a building. While some mold is already present in the outdoor air, mold growing from an indoor source is a cause for concern. Our staff know how to test for mold in the air and on surfaces in your building. This can help you address employee concerns and save on costs associated with liability and lost work time.

There are many types and sources of mold, and some varieties can affect sensitive individuals. Mold exposure may cause health issues for employees, including coughing, headaches, and allergies. While mold is sometimes visible, it often grows hidden behind walls. It is important to assess your HVAC system to determine how much fresh air is being circulated vs recirculated. During the winter, many buildings stay sealed to keep the heat in, but that can trap moisture from leaks, spills, or condensation. To reduce these risks, keep workspaces dry and well-ventilated. Regular maintenance of ventilation system and fixing leaks quickly will help stop mold before it starts.

Converse Consultants offers professional mold inspection services designed to help businesses detect and address mold issues early. Our goal is to minimize IAQ issues and impacts to your business, while also helping you protect your employees, customers, and property.
