Mold testing collects samples from surfaces or air to identify what types of mold are present and in what amounts. It is a tool, not a ritual. We recommend testing when it will answer a real question, such as whether a stain is mold or whether hidden growth may be affecting indoor air.
The Problem Behind Mold Testing
Testing without a plan can produce numbers that confuse more than they help. Testing visible growth that clearly needs removal may not change the plan. On the other hand, when you smell mold but cannot see it, or need documentation, sampling provides useful information.
