Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need mold testing?
Mold testing provides scientific data about mold presence and levels in your property. It identifies specific mold species, measures spore counts, and provides a baseline for verifying remediation success. Testing is especially important for health concerns, real estate transactions, and documenting remediation results.
What's the difference between air testing and surface testing?
Air testing measures mold spores floating in your indoor air and compares them to outdoor levels. It tells you what you're breathing. Surface testing identifies specific mold species growing on materials. We often recommend both for a complete picture.
How long does it take to get results?
Lab results typically take 3-5 business days from sample submission. Rush processing is available for time-sensitive situations. We'll review results with you and provide a detailed written report.
Should I test before and after remediation?
Yes, we strongly recommend it. Pre-remediation testing establishes baseline mold levels. Post-remediation testing verifies treatment success. This before/after comparison proves your indoor air quality has improved to safe levels.
What mold levels are considered safe?
Indoor mold spore counts should be at or below outdoor levels for most species. Certain toxic molds like Stachybotrys (black mold) should not be present indoors at any significant level. We compare your results to established guidelines and explain what they mean.
Do I need testing or just an inspection?
It depends on your situation. Visual inspection is often sufficient to identify obvious mold problems. Testing is recommended when: you suspect hidden mold, have health concerns, need documentation for real estate/insurance, or want to verify remediation success.
