Palmetto Bay · Miami-Dade County
Palmetto Bay is mostly large-lot single-family homes from the 1950s through the 1980s, many under a heavy tree canopy east of Old Cutler Road.
The shade keeps roofs and walls damp longer after rain, the homes on the bay side sit low enough to see storm-surge water, and many were re-roofed after Hurricane Andrew and are due again.
Whether you've had a recent leak, noticed a musty smell, or want peace of mind before a purchase, one call to 305-882-9490 books a same-day mold inspection in Palmetto Bay.
Palmetto Bay housing
Palmetto Bay is large-lot single-family homes from the 1950s through the 1980s under one of the heaviest tree canopies in the county, east of Old Cutler Road and around Coral Reef Drive. The shade is the problem as much as the asset: roofs, soffits and the walls facing the trees dry slowly after rain, so a small roof leak has time to soak an attic and a ceiling before a stain shows, and leaf litter holds water in gutters and roof valleys. Many of these homes were re-roofed after Hurricane Andrew and are due again.
The lots on the bay side sit low enough for storm surge and heavy rain to reach the house, so the base of the walls and the flooring near them stay damp. Pools, summer kitchens and irrigation running against the house every day keep one exterior wall wet, and large homes with several air-conditioning systems often have an air handler in a part of the house nobody checks.

Mold testing · Palmetto Bay
A mold test in Palmetto Bay is the lab half of the inspection: the meters and thermal camera find where the water is, then a surface sample, an indoor air sample and an outdoor control taken the same hour show what it has grown and whether the air is carrying it.
Palmetto Bay testing accounts for the canopy: a tape lift on attic insulation and a swab on the ceiling under the shaded roof slope, with the indoor air sample in the room beneath. Low bay-side lots get the base of the wall swabbed and the slab metered. The wall that irrigation or pool equipment keeps wet gets a surface sample at the baseboard. Large homes get an air sample per air-handling zone when the complaint is a smell.
The outdoor control is taken in open air at the street, because a shaded Palmetto Bay yard can carry higher counts than the inside of the house.
The samples are read by an accredited laboratory in Fort Lauderdale, usually within a day of submission, and the written report says what the numbers mean for this house. How mold testing works, what it costs and how to read the results.

Where we work
Palmetto Bay is highlighted on the map. We inspect homes in every city across Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties — tap any dot for that city's page.
Inspections are usually same-day, and most lab-certified results are delivered within 24–48 hours of sampling — fast enough to act before a small Palmetto Bay moisture problem becomes a big one.
Yes. A persistent musty odor means microbial activity somewhere — often inside a wall, under flooring or in ductwork. Air sampling identifies what's airborne and how much, even when nothing is visible.
Heavy tree canopy keeping roofs damp, low bay-side lots, and post-Andrew roofs due for replacement. Those are the first places our inspectors check in Palmetto Bay.
Yes. Our air and surface sampling identifies Stachybotrys chartarum (black mold) along with every other species of concern, plus the contamination level, verified by an accredited laboratory.
Not always. Visible growth can be removed without a test, and we will say so. Testing earns its place when the growth is hidden, when a buyer, landlord or insurer needs documentation, when symptoms persist with nothing visible, or after remediation to prove the air is clear. A Palmetto Bay inspection with three samples starts at $450.
