Definitive Answers Through Lab Data
Providing Mold Inspections in Shaker Heights, OH
Our Testing Methods
Standard protocol: 2 indoor + 1 outdoor baseline. Additional samples: $75/ea
Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis
Air Sample Testing
This test determines indoor air quality by comparing captured invisible spores to outdoor norms. It is the definitive, gold-standard way to confirm if mold is actively reproducing.
Tape Lift & Swab
Direct sampling allows us to identify specific visible mold on floors, furniture, or walls. Whenever mold is visible on a surface, this is the most effective method for determining the type and extent of growth.
Cultured Samples
We utilize cultured surface samples to determine which mold species are actively living. Since mold has life cycles, culturing samples in the lab helps us find mold that doesn’t appear on standard tests. This process requires a multi-day turnaround at the lab.
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.
