Indoor air quality testingBuilding conditions we often find in Allentown
- Rowhomes and twins. Shared walls and older roof and gutter systems can let water into more than one unit. A leak next door can show up in your basement or wall.
- Stone and brick foundations. Many older Allentown homes have masonry foundations that let moisture through, especially in spring and after storms.
- Converted and multi-unit buildings. Apartments carved out of older homes may have bathrooms and kitchens with limited ventilation, a common source of mold on ceilings and walls.
- Homes near creeks. Properties near the Lehigh River, Jordan Creek and Little Lehigh Creek can have high groundwater and damp basements.
For rental properties, we can document conditions and provide a written scope that owners, managers and tenants can all understand.

Allentown mold FAQs
How quickly can you inspect an Allentown property?
Timing depends on our schedule and the size of the job. Initial inspections are typically scheduled within a few business days of your call.
Do you work with Allentown landlords and tenants?
Yes. We inspect rental units, provide documentation of findings and scopes, and can communicate with property owners when needed.
Is mold in an Allentown rowhome coming from next door?
It can be. Leaks and moisture can travel through shared walls, roofs and foundations. An inspection helps identify where the water is actually coming from.
Do I need mold testing before remediation?
Not always. If growth is visible and the cause is clear, remediation can proceed. Mold testing is most useful when mold is hidden or documentation is needed.
Do you offer free mold estimates in Allentown?
No. Inspections and assessments are paid professional services. We explain costs before scheduling.

reviews
"We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Air Care. From the very first call, Jessica was kind, professional, and incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions. They scheduled us quickly, which we truly appreciated. When Joe came out, it was immediately clear we were in good hands. He is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to walk us through everything, making sure we understood the process every step of the way. He also handled communication and reporting with our landlord seamlessly, which took a huge weight off our shoulders. Air Care is professional, prompt, trustworthy and genuinely cares about their clients. We highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services."

"This company is exceptional. Joe, the owner, spent hours inspecting and testing our home, and his knowledge of mold and moisture problems is truly expert‑level. He identified issues we never would have found on our own. They completed a full remediation in our basement and installed a heavy‑duty dehumidifier. After a voltage problem in our home affected the unit, Joe came back personally to get it working again. That kind of dedication is hard to find. Andrew and Dylan also cleaned our ductwork and did an excellent job — professional, efficient, and equipped for serious work. If you’re dealing with mold or air quality concerns, call them. They’re thorough, honest, and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend."

"We called Air Care to investigate air quality concerns in our home. They completed a very thorough inspection and immediately identified several major construction issues in our basement that were causing hidden mold growth. Air Care's mold spore tests revealed that levels were significantly elevated in our home. Air Care started remediation work very quickly to remove the incorrectly installed insulation and reinsulate everything properly using methods that would not cause mold growth. They installed new drywall and put back our built-in cabinets and ceiling tiles. Everything was as good as new! We had an independent company come back and re-test the air quality, and mold spore levels were reduced by over 95%. We were very happy with the quality of work done by Air Care and their attention to detail and care for our home. They are highly knowledgeable in their field and took the time to explain everything to us in detail. We would highly recommend them to anyone experiencing air quality issues in their home or workplace!"

"Joe was extremely helpful and thorough in evaluating our new house for mold. We found some and another company tried to charge us 4,000 dollars to clean up one wall. Joe identified that the wall was not the contributing factor to the air mold and that the old owners must have had moldy items in the basement. We filtered the air and retested. Mold is gone. Saved us a ton of money and spent the time teaching us what to do and look for. 10/10 service."

"We hired Air Care for a big mold remediation of a carriage house/garage. From the start Joe was excellent in explaining what was needed, he answered all our questions and explained every process along the way. All the guys from Air Care were efficient and considerate and they went above and beyond to ensure the job was completed on time and with perfection. Jessica from the office was great as well. We couldn't be happier with the price and service we received from start to finish."
