Moisture and humidity are common problems in York County homes — especially in basements, attics, and crawl spaces. Mold can start in these hidden areas long before you notice a smell or see any discoloration.
A professional mold inspection in Grantley includes a full visual walkthrough, moisture readings, thermal imaging, and lab testing when needed. You’ll get a written report that breaks down what was found, what’s causing it, and what makes sense to do next.
Each inspection begins with a detailed property walkthrough — checking areas like attics, basements, HVAC systems, and behind plumbing where moisture tends to hide.
I use thermal imaging and moisture mapping to locate leaks or damp areas that might be feeding hidden mold. If testing is needed, I’ll collect air or surface samples and send them to an independent, accredited lab for certified analysis.
Your report will include:
The type and amount of mold found (if any)
Photos and readings from the inspection
Probable causes of contamination
Recommended next steps for your property
Mold can spread quietly inside walls, under flooring, or through your HVAC system without leaving visible signs. A professional mold inspection and testing service in Grantley, PA identifies what’s really happening behind the scenes.

Property managers handling tenant concerns
Getting the facts helps you make the right call — without the stress or uncertainty that comes from guessing.
If mold is found, it’s not the end of the world — it just means you finally have real answers. Your report will show what kind of mold it is, how elevated the levels are, and what’s causing it.
Because I only perform inspections and testing, there’s no cleanup sales pitch — just straightforward information about your home’s condition.

When you schedule a mold inspection and testing in Grantley, PA, you deserve real information — not a sales pitch or scare tactics. My inspections are designed to find the actual source of the problem and provide data you can trust.
Every home in York County has its own story. Some have older basements that stay damp all year, others have roof leaks that come and go with the weather, and many have HVAC systems quietly circulating mold spores without anyone realizing it. That’s why every inspection starts with understanding your home’s history and environment.
I’ll begin with a full visual assessment of your property, looking at both obvious and hidden areas where moisture tends to collect — behind drywall, under flooring, around plumbing, inside HVAC lines, and even in attics that seem dry at first glance. From there, I’ll use thermal imaging and moisture mapping to detect hidden dampness and temperature changes that often reveal water intrusion.
If mold testing is needed, I’ll collect air samples to measure spore levels in different parts of your home and compare them to outdoor conditions. I also take surface samples from suspect areas when growth is visible or suspected. All samples are sent to an independent, accredited laboratory — not in-house — to guarantee accurate, unbiased results.
Once the results come back, you’ll receive a comprehensive, easy-to-read report that includes:
Photos and readings from the inspection
Lab results showing which mold types were found
Comparative data between indoor and outdoor air samples
A summary of contributing moisture sources
Recommendations on what should be addressed first

I’m Tom Duff, the owner and lead mold inspector here in York County.
Before starting Mastertech, I spent almost ten years in the Fire Department, where I learned how buildings are constructed and how moisture, smoke, and heat move through them.
After that, I worked six years in pest control and environmental cleaning, which taught me how small moisture issues can become big indoor air problems.
I started Mastertech because I wanted to help people deal with mold the right way. I grew up with mold-related illness, so I understand this from both sides — as someone who’s been affected and as someone trained to fix it.
When I inspect a home, I take my time, walk you through what I’m seeing, and explain what the data actually means for your situation.
