Air Sample Testing
Tap to reveal
We capture microscopic spores to evaluate your indoor environment relative to outside levels. This is the most reliable, gold-standard method for detecting active mold presence.
Tape Lift & Swab
Tap to reveal
We use direct surface sampling to identify specific mold growth visible on floors, walls, or furniture. When mold is plainly visible, this is the best method to confirm the type and quantity present.
Cultured Samples
Tap to reveal
To identify thriving mold species, we culture surface samples at the lab. Mold has life cycles, and this specific method allows us to find mold that might be missed by other testing types. Be aware that this is a multi-day test.
Bacteria Analysis
