Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis

Air Sample Testing

This method traps airborne spores to measure indoor air quality against outdoor baselines. It is the industry’s gold standard for identifying mold that is present and biologically active.

Spore Trap Analysis

Tape Lift & Swab

This method involves direct sampling of visible mold on furniture, walls, or flooring. If you can see mold on a surface, this is the ideal way to determine the specific type and amount.

Surface Species Identification

Cultured Samples

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.

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. Mold loves to hide in places you can’t see, including inside wall cavities, under carpets, and within your heating and cooling systems. If you notice a musty odor, have had recent water damage, or are purchasing a new home, air sampling can detect elevated spore counts that indicate a hidden infestation before it becomes a major structural or health issue.
How long does it take to get the lab results back? +

We understand that real estate transactions operate on strict timelines. For this reason, we guarantee next-business-day turnaround for every sample we collect. 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. While “Black Mold” (Stachybotrys chartarum) is well-known, many other common molds—such as Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Cladosporium—can cause significant allergic reactions and respiratory issues at high concentrations. Our inspectors, who hold degrees in Biology and Physiology, analyze the specific types and levels of mold relative to the outdoor baseline to give you a complete picture of the home’s health.
Do you clean/remediate the mold if you find it? +
Ethics & Compliance We do not; we are a dedicated testing-only firm. It is unethical to be both the judge and the jury; testing and remediation should always be separate. We aim to give you an honest, unbiased look at your property’s condition without any financial incentive to find problems.
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.
