Mold Testing in Price Hill
Price Hill's steep hillside terrain above the Ohio River creates significant stormwater challenges. Heavy rains send water cascading down Warsaw Avenue, Glenway Avenue, and the numerous side streets, overwhelming aging storm drains and pushing water against home foundations at lower elevations. The neighborhood's housing ranges from 1880s Victorians with stone foundations to mid-century ranch homes with block foundations, all requiring different waterproofing approaches. Dry Effect serves all three Price Hill communities and understands the specific drainage patterns and foundation types throughout the area.

Our Process
How We Handle Mold Testing in Price Hill
Four steps from emergency to restored — with local expertise at every stage.
Collection
When Price Hill residents call, we collect air samples using calibrated spore trap cassettes and take surface samples (tape lifts or swabs) from suspect areas. Outdoor baseline samples are taken simultaneously so the lab can compare indoor levels to normal outdoor conditions.
Lab Analysis
At your Price Hill property, samples are shipped to an accredited independent laboratory for microscopic analysis. The lab identifies mold species, spore counts, and concentration levels. Results are objective and defensible for legal purposes.
Results Review
For Price Hill homes, we review your lab report with you in plain language — what was found, what the numbers mean, and whether the levels are elevated compared to outdoor baselines. No jargon, no scare tactics, just honest answers.
Action Plan
Your Price Hill property is our priority. based on results, we provide a clear written recommendation. If remediation is needed, we outline the scope and can begin work immediately. If levels are normal, we tell you that too. Our 5-year warranty covers any mold remediation we perform.
