Mold Testing & Air Quality Analysis
Laboratory-certified testing to identify mold species and spore concentrations. Get scientific data about your indoor air quality.
Schedule TestingWhat Is Mold Testing?
Mold testing involves collecting air, surface, or material samples from your property and sending them to an accredited laboratory for analysis. Lab testing identifies the specific types of mold present and measures spore concentrations, providing scientific data about your indoor air quality.
Unlike visual inspection alone, testing provides quantifiable results that can help identify hidden mold problems, verify the effectiveness of remediation work, and document conditions for health professionals or legal purposes.
Air Sampling
Measures airborne mold spores to assess indoor air quality and identify elevated spore counts.
Surface Sampling
Direct samples from visible mold growth to identify specific mold species present.
Bulk Sampling
Physical samples of materials like drywall or insulation for laboratory analysis.
When You Need Mold Testing
Health Concerns
Respiratory issues, allergies, or other health symptoms that may be related to mold exposure. Testing identifies specific mold types for medical evaluation.
Post-Remediation Verification
Clearance testing after mold removal to verify the work was successful and spore counts have returned to normal levels.
Hidden Mold Suspected
Musty odors or health symptoms suggest mold but visual inspection doesn't reveal the source. Air testing can detect hidden problems.
Legal or Insurance Documentation
Laboratory results provide scientific documentation for insurance claims, legal disputes, or real estate transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between inspection and testing?
Inspection is a visual assessment to find mold and moisture issues. Testing involves collecting samples (air, surface, or bulk) and sending them to a lab to identify specific mold types and spore concentrations.
How long do lab results take?
Most lab results are available within 3-5 business days. We provide preliminary findings immediately after sample collection and send the full lab report as soon as it's available.
What types of samples do you collect?
We collect air samples to measure airborne spore counts, surface samples from visible mold growth, and bulk samples of materials when needed. The sampling method depends on your specific situation.
Is mold testing necessary?
Testing is recommended when you need to identify specific mold species for health concerns, verify post-remediation clearance, document conditions for legal purposes, or when mold is suspected but not visible.
