MOLD TESTING

  • Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems in homes. Inadequate ventilation can increase indoor pollutant levels by not having enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor sources and by not carrying indoor air pollutants out of the home. We have services that our certified professionals use to help identify mold and the quality of your air at home.

    • Mold Surface Testing which includes 3 surface tests

    • Mold Carpet Testing

    • Mold Inner Wall Testing

    • Standard Air Quality which includes 1 inside air test, 1 outside air test, and 1 surface test

    • Air Quality Plus which includes 1 inside air test, 1 outside air test, and 1 customer choice

  • Inspect buildings for evidence of water damage and visible mold as part of routine building maintenance. Correct conditions causing mold growth (e.g., water leaks, condensation, infiltration, or flooding) to prevent mold growth.

    Inside your home you can control mold growth by:

    • Controlling humidity levels;

    • Promptly fixing leaky roofs, windows, and pipes;

    • Thoroughly cleaning and drying after flooding;

    • Ventilating shower, laundry, and cooking areas.

  • Indoor & Outdoor Air Testing

    For air testing, an air sampling device and cassette are used. For any number of indoor air samples taken, one outdoor sample must also be taken as a “baseline”. A solo indoor sample would have some useful information, but without the outdoor “baseline” it’s hard to say if there is a mold problem in the house, or if the house is just in an area conducive to mold growth. If all the same species are present in the indoor sample, and in lesser amount than the outdoor sample, that is normal, good air quality. If different species are present, or in higher amounts than the outdoor sample, that indicates mold growth in/near the area sampled.

    Inner Wall Testing

    The inner wall testing uses the same air sampling device and cassette, the only difference is that a hole will be drilled in the wall, a special attachment is inserted through the hole, and the sample is taken. If there is evidence of mold growth, such as a musty smell, but no clear suspect location, there could be a moisture problem in an inaccessible area (roof leak, pipe leak, poorly installed insulation, etc). After the sample has been taken, we then add a filler to the hole in order to patch the wall.

    Carpet Sampling

    Carpet Sampling uses a special filter head with the pump. We set down a little sampling quadrat over an uncovered but low traffic area of carpet, and drag the filter head in the quadrat in a grid pattern. The filter head is opened, dissolved and analyzed back at the lab.

    Surface Sampling

    Surface sampling is quick and easy. Areas of concern/apparent mold are selected, and then sampled using the biotape slides. These are another type of adhesive slide, just peel the cover off and lightly stick it to the selected area, and boom you're done.
