Indoor air sampling
A pump draws a measured volume of air, often about 15 liters per minute for five to ten minutes, through a spore trap cassette. The lab counts and identifies spores per cubic meter.

Sloppy sampling produces meaningless numbers. These are the standards we expect from the testers we refer.

Testers use calibrated air pumps with spore trap cassettes, sterile swabs, and tape-lift slides, and always pull an outdoor control sample for comparison.
Pricing is set per sample before the visit. No surprise lab charges after the results come back.
Local testers schedule quickly, and many labs offer next-day or 24-hour rush analysis when a deadline is close.
Testers in our network carry their own insurance and any licensing your area requires. Ask whether samples go to an AIHA-accredited lab; good testers say yes without hesitating.

When you see something and want to know what it is, a surface sample answers that question directly.
A small port lets the tester sample air inside a wall without opening it, which is useful when you suspect growth behind finished drywall after a leak.
Clearance testing gives you proof the remediation worked before walls are closed up or tenants move back in.
When two sides disagree about mold, accredited lab results with proper paperwork are hard to argue with.

Here's what happens after you call.

A few recent testing jobs, in customers' own words.

My landlord kept saying the spots in my bedroom were just dirt. The lab confirmed two types of mold on the wall, and the air sample was well above outdoor levels. That report got the repair done.
After paying for remediation, I wanted proof. The clearance air samples came back lower than the outdoor control, and I finally felt comfortable moving my kids back into the basement.
We were selling and the buyer asked about a past leak. A quick cavity sample plus air testing showed nothing unusual, and the deal closed on time.
The tester explained the numbers clearly instead of just emailing a PDF. Knowing what was normal versus elevated made the whole thing less stressful.
Air tests tell you what you're breathing. Surface tests tell you what a visible stain actually is.
Mold spores are always present outdoors. The outdoor control sets a baseline, so indoor results can be judged by whether they're higher or contain different types than outside.
Typically a few business days, with faster rush options when you're facing a closing date or move-in deadline.
Not very. Petri-dish kits grow mold in nearly every home, which tells you little. Professional sampling measures volume and compares indoor to outdoor air.
There are no federal limits for indoor mold spores. Results are judged by comparing indoor samples with outdoor controls and looking for water-damage indicator species.
ERMI analyzes settled dust using DNA methods to identify mold species. It's sometimes used in health-related investigations, though most residential decisions rely on air and surface sampling.
