Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis

Air Sample Testing

Using air sampling to catch invisible spores allows us to benchmark indoor quality against the outdoors. This represents the gold standard for determining active fungal presence in a room.

Spore Trap Analysis

Tape Lift & Swab

Direct surface sampling to identify specific visible mold on walls, floors, or furniture. If mold is visible on a surface, this is the ideal method to determine the type of mold and quantity.

Surface Species Identification

Cultured Samples

We take surface samples and culture them in the lab to see which mold species are thriving. Because of mold’s life cycles, this approach identifies fungi that might not show up on other tests. It is a multi-day lab procedure.

Viability Incubation (Multi-Day)

Bacteria Analysis

Mold isn’t the only problem caused by water. For plumbing leaks or overflows, the lab analyzes samples to determine the presence of bacteria that are found in fecal matter. This is a specialized multi-day procedure to ensure environment safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

I don’t see any visible mold. Is an inspection still necessary? +
Yes. Fungal growth frequently occurs in concealed spaces like behind walls, beneath floorboards, or inside ventilation ducts. For those detecting strange smells or dealing with past water issues, our air quality tests can identify invisible threats early, preventing costly repairs and health risks later.
How long does it take to get the lab results back? +

We know that closing a home sale requires speed and efficiency. This is why we deliver laboratory results by the very next business day. You won’t be left waiting for a week to know the condition of the home.

Disclaimer: Next Business Day results are subject to FedEx shipping schedules. Inspections performed late in the day may miss the FedEx pickup cutoff, delaying results by one day.

Is ‘Black Mold’ (Stachybotrys) the only dangerous type? +
Not necessarily. Although Stachybotrys (Black Mold) is famous, other common types like Aspergillus and Penicillium can trigger serious allergies and breathing problems if levels are high. Our biology-degreed inspectors compare indoor spore counts against outdoor baselines to provide a scientifically accurate assessment of your home’s safety.
Do you clean/remediate the mold if you find it? +
Ethics & Compliance No, we are strictly an inspection and testing company. It is unethical to be both the judge and the jury; testing and remediation should always be separate. Our only goal is to provide you with an unbiased, scientific assessment of the property so you can make an informed decision on how to proceed.
What is your ‘No Mold, No Pay’ Guarantee? +
If we conduct a protocol with at least two indoor samples and an outdoor baseline (or three indoor samples)—and the lab results come back clean with no mold detected in the indoor samples, we will refund your entire mold inspection fee. You shouldn’t have to pay to find out your home is healthy.
