Why this exists
That's the number nobody told you.
When I was sick, I had no idea where to look. I lifted bath mats. I sniffed cabinets. I felt crazy.
A professional mold inspector charges anywhere from $300 to $1,500+ to walk through your home with a flashlight. Most of the value of that inspection is the fact that they know where to point the flashlight.
That's it. That's the whole secret.
This checklist is where to point the flashlight. It won't find hidden mold inside your walls. It will find a lot of mold that's been hiding in plain sight, and it will tell you whether what you're seeing is worth paying a professional to investigate further.
The Checklist
Nine areas of your home. Sixty-seven checkpoints. One PDF you can hand to an inspector.
Bathroom
10 checksThe highest-yield room in the house. Caulk, grout, exhaust fans, behind toilets, and the spots most homeowners never look.
Kitchen
8 checksSlow leaks that go undetected for years. Behind the fridge, dishwasher seals, and the single highest-yield spot under the sink.
Laundry Room
7 checksStanding water, humid air, frequent plumbing connections. Often the source of household-wide mold problems.
HVAC System
8 checksThe most underrated source. If the system has mold, it distributes spores every time it runs.
Basement & Crawl Space
8 checksFoundation walls, plumbing penetrations, support posts, vapor barriers. Likely your biggest risk if you have either.
Attic
7 checksRoof leaks, ventilation problems, exhaust fan terminations, and the soffit corners nobody thinks to inspect.
Bedrooms & Living Areas
7 checksWhere symptoms often become noticeable first. Behind furniture, inside closets, under rugs, in the mattress.
Exterior
8 checksMost interior problems start outside. Ground contact with siding, window flashing, foundation cracks, drainage slope.
The Smell Test
4 patternsYour nose is one of the most sensitive mold detectors you have. Learn which smell signals which type of mold.

Why trust this checklist
I've recovered from mold illness twice.
I spent 12 years and over $250,000 working with more than 30 doctors before I found my path to recovery from mold-related illness. Then I had to do it again, after a second exposure from a different source.
The second time, I knew exactly where to look.
The first time, I had no idea where to look. The difference between those two experiences is what this checklist captures.
Before mold illness, I spent 14 years in elite fitness as a national champion collegiate gymnast, NASM certified, Cooper Clinic trained, and a Certified Primal Health Coach. I bring the same discipline to mold recovery I brought to elite athletics. Not fear-based protocols. Not lifelong dependency. Just clear answers, faster.

Frequently asked
Questions before you sign up.
Can this replace a professional mold inspection?
No. This checklist helps you find the visible and accessible mold that most homeowners miss, and helps you document what you find before calling a professional. Hidden mold inside walls and in HVAC systems requires professional equipment to detect. Think of this as preparation for a better, more efficient inspection, not a replacement.
How long does it take to walk?
Most homeowners take 60 to 90 minutes for all 67 items. The interactive version saves your progress so you can do one room at a time.
What if I find mold?
Do not disturb it. Do not try to clean it. Document with photos and notes. Then consult a professional. The downloadable PDF of your findings will save you inspection time.
I have mold sensitivity. Should I walk this myself?
No. If you have known mold sensitivity, asthma, immune compromise, or are pregnant, have someone else walk the checklist for you. Disturbing mold releases spores, and you are the person you most want to protect from that exposure.
