Our Testing Methods
Standard protocol: 2 indoor + 1 outdoor baseline. Additional samples: $75/ea
Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis
Bacteria Analysis
Tap to reveal
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.
Cultured Samples
Tap to reveal
Surface samples cultured by the lab to identify which mold species are present and thriving. Mold has life-cycles like anything else. This method involves taking surface samples and culturing them in the lab so we can look for mold that may not show up on other testing methods. This is a multi-day test at the lab.
Tape Lift & Swab
Tap to reveal
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.
