Pasadena's Hancock's Resolution, a farmhouse Stephen Hancock built in 1785 on what was then a working farm, stayed in the Hancock family until the 1960s, according to the site's own history maintained by Historic Hancock's Resolution. The property is now a park within the Anne Arundel County system, standing apart from the beach communities that later grew up along the Magothy shoreline nearby. That range, from an eighteenth-century farmhouse to a beach cottage, shapes what a damp room in Pasadena might mean.
For a home near Lake Shore or Magothy Beach, describe any dock, bulkhead or crawlspace affected by water on the Magothy side, and note whether the lower level has taken on water during storms. Sunset Beach and Green Haven properties may center on an older cottage's crawlspace or a later addition instead. Along Lakeshore Drive, tell us about any recent renovation and how close the structure sits to the waterfront. Well and septic systems still serve some Pasadena properties away from the shoreline, so mention them when booking, along with any recent water testing or pump replacement you can recall.
Local background: Historic Hancock's Resolution.
01
A home set close to the Magothy shoreline may have a bulkhead, seawall or dock that connects structurally to the house or a detached deck. Describe the condition of that connection and any storm water that has reached the lowest floor in the past.
02
Some houses here began as small seasonal cottages before being expanded into year-round homes. Identify which section is original and which was added, and describe insulation or heating changes made when the house was converted for full-time use.
03
Properties away from the immediate waterfront may rely on a private well and pump room rather than public water service. Identify where the pump equipment is located relative to the area of concern, and note any recent servicing or water pressure changes.
Where we test in Pasadena, and what to tell us
Lake Shore, Magothy Beach
For a home along this waterfront, describe any dock, bulkhead or seawall condition and whether the lowest floor has taken on water during a storm or unusually high tide.
Sunset Beach, Green Haven
In these communities set back from the immediate shoreline, identify whether the house is an older cottage or a later build, and describe any addition, crawlspace or basement finishing completed since.
Lakeshore Drive
Along this scenic stretch, tell us about recent renovation work, how close the structure sits to the water, and whether any lower room has a history of dampness after heavy rain.
No version of your result is worth more to us than another one. If the report says you need work, you choose the remediator. A separate post-remediation assessment can document conditions after the work within its agreed scope.
For a Maryland property, define the question before ordering samples: a particular stain, persistent odor, water event or follow-up after repairs. Keep dated observations and laboratory findings with the repair history. A report does not determine health risks, insurance coverage or legal responsibility. Montgomery County also publishes separate radon requirements for covered home sales; confirm which rules apply to your transaction.

Describe the lowest floor's elevation and any water that has reached it during storms or high tides. Choosing Walk & Talk means a consultation without laboratory samples, choosing Mold Basic means one targeted area is tested, and choosing Mold Plus adds a moisture and thermal evaluation to that same targeted area. Concerns about the dock or bulkhead structure itself fall outside a mold visit.
No. Elevation, drainage and individual upkeep matter more than distance to the water. Describe your property's own history, including any past flooding or repair work, and bring photographs if available. The visit will be scoped to what you can show and describe about your specific address.
Yes. Identify where the well and pump equipment are located and describe any recent servicing, leaks or pressure changes you have noticed, along with the equipment's approximate age if known. The technician can include that area in the agreed scope alongside the primary waterfront or interior concern if you mention it when booking.
It can be useful context. Describe which part of the house is the original cottage and which is the addition, and mention any change in materials at that seam. That information helps identify where a concern is more likely to be visible or where sampling would be most informative.
