🏠 Professional Mould Survey – Building Forensics

Building Forensics are the UK’s leading experts in mould and Building-Related Illness (BRI) investigation.

We provide expert inspections, indoor air quality assessments, and advanced environmental analysis nationwide. While we offer every form of sampling and laboratory analysis available, sampling is only one part of the picture. Identifying the source, cause, and correct remediation method is equally—if not more—critical.

✅ Choosing the Right Survey

When considering the cost of an environmental survey, it’s vital to weigh it against what you want to discover—and what you’ll do with that information.

A poorly designed or inaccurate report could:

Lead you to believe your symptoms are psychological
Or worse, make you think everything must be thrown out and the home abandoned

Your symptoms—or guidance from your healthcare professional—may influence how in-depth the investigation needs to be.

⚠️ Many companies offer cheap, fixed-price “professional” surveys. That’s not Building Forensics.

We listen to your concerns and deliver not just what you ask for—but what you actually need.

Below are two tailored options to suit different needs and budgets:

📝 Survey Option 1 – Full Survey by Environmental Hygienist

Recommended for: Building-Related Illness (BRI) cases

This comprehensive survey is conducted by a fully qualified Environmental Hygienist, trained in CIRS, with over 35 years of experience.

Includes:
✔️ Review of medical symptoms and previous reports, tests, or remediation actions
✔️ Analysis of high-risk areas using advanced airborne particle counts and moisture mapping
✔️ Identification of design or construction defects contributing to moisture, mould, or biocontamination
✔️ Sampling and analysis tailored to your specific issues
✔️ Detailed written report to guide precise and cost-effective remediation
✔️ On-site advice and explanations (note: this is not medical advice)

📝 Survey Option 2 – Technician-Guided Survey

Recommended for: Initial investigations or limited budgets

A cost-effective alternative carried out by a trained technician, under the instruction of our principal consultant. The technician collects key environmental data following the same rigorous checklist as Survey 1.

✔️ Jeff Charlton personally reviews the data and prepares the final report
✔️ Questions answered by email where possible
❗ On-site advice not included
❗ May include fewer tailored recommendations

This option is ideal for those needing a diagnostic starting point or working within budget constraints.

🔬 Mould Sampling – What You Need to Know

Not all sampling techniques are relevant for every situation—and not every client has the same health risks or concerns.

Before recommending any sampling, we assess your symptoms, objectives, and environment. This ensures what you’re paying for is relevant and beneficial.

If you’re under medical care, we encourage discussing your concerns with your healthcare provider—or contact us for free, no-obligation guidance.

⚠️ Don’t rely on Google or online chat groups. What worked for someone else may be completely inappropriate for you.

We offer tailored sampling based on symptoms, including:

Brain fog, memory issues, cognitive decline
Gut health (IBS, discomfort)
Endocrine disruption
Gynaecological issues
Skin irritation or hair loss
Weight gain or hormonal changes
Respiratory conditions
Eye irritation or inflammation
Electrical sensations (static shock symptoms)
Chronic fatigue
Neurological symptoms (e.g., Parkinson’s-like issues)

Once we’ve reviewed your health concerns and survey objectives, we’ll advise on the most suitable sampling types and critical collection locations.
