Mold Inspection in Oak Ridge, TN
Oak Ridge was built in the 1940s for the Manhattan Project, and many of its original houses are still lived in, alongside later ranch homes and newer construction. Aging plumbing, original crawl spaces and decades of small repairs give moisture plenty of places to hide.
Inspections here often include crawl spaces, older bathrooms and kitchens, and spots where past leaks were patched rather than dried out.
