Sick as a dog and don't know why?
Smell something musty?
See staining and not sure if it's mold?
Had a leak and suspect you might have mold?
Test your home and have results back within days.
Two most common reasons to test for mold:
Buying a Home
Home inspections look for visible mold growth.
Unfortunately this isn't the full picture.
If a house has mold growth the problem doesn't leave automatically. Mold needs to be removed forcefully.
​
​
Mold tolerance varies from person to person. Just because the current owners don't show signs of mold exposure doesn't mean mold isn't there.
​
​
If mold is found; don't fret. We can typically schedule you within a few days so you can close on time.
Lingering Sickness
Mold exposure has been shown
to have the following effects:
-
Asthma
-
Sore Throat
-
Sinus Infections
-
Respiratory Issues
-
Muscle Aches
-
Neurological Issues
-
Coughing
-
Sneezing
-
Itchy, Watery Eyes
-
Headaches
-
Fibromyalgia
​
Since mold sensitivity varies from person to person it is possible (and common) that only one or two people in a household feel the effects of mold exposure.
If you suspect mold, or even if you're not sure, its worth a test for peace of mind.
Lab-Verified Results
All tests are sent overnight to a third-party lab to verify the type and amount of mold spores found.
​
Types of tests available:
-
Air Sample: The most common type of test. We pull one cubic meter of air through a filter to see the average spore count in a room.
​​
-
Tape: A piece of "tape" is placed on growing mold to verify the type of mold.
​​
-
Viability: An air sample is taken and the lab attempts to grow mold from the spores to verify if the spores are able to reproduce.
​
​
Results for air and tape tests are typically received within 2-3 business days.
Rush requests are available.
​
Viability test results are typically 7+ days
