Sampling. Is it necessary?
Sometimes. There are no national or state standards for “safe” levels of mold. Mold spores are a natural part of the environment. A thorough visual inspection is the most important step. Although no mold standards exist, sampling is a valuable tool that can indicate the presence of mold that may not be apparent by other means.
Clearing
The NYS licensed Mold assessor will do a post-remediation assessment. If all work was done according to plan, the assessor will release a “clearing document” Samples will be taken if required.
Requirement
Can an owner do their own work? Yes. Property owners can do their own cleanup. There is no requirement to hire a professional. However, if a property owner chooses to hire a mold professional, those professionals must follow the requirements of the law. New York State Mold Law , Article 32.
