Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis

Air Sample Testing

By comparing indoor spore counts to outdoor control samples, we reveal invisible air quality issues. This remains the gold standard for verifying active mold growth in a specific area.

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? +
Definitely. 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 smell dampness, have experienced leaks, or are buying a property, professional air testing can reveal high spore levels, catching the problem before it damages your health or home.
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. We ensure you aren’t stuck waiting days to understand the property’s condition.

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 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. Our sole priority is delivering an impartial, scientific report so you can decide the next steps with confidence.
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.
