FAQ’s
Q: How would I know if my air quality needs to be tested?
A: Sometimes we recommend air quality testing if you suspect mold (like a damp, musty odor) but can’t immediately see visual signs of it. If you know your home or property has had a mold/fungus issue in the past and think it may have returned, or if you experienced recent water damage, it could be beneficial. It’s also helpful in ruling out the cause of unknown allergies to you or others living in the space – some molds and fungi can cause mild reactions like sneezing, sore/itchy eyes, nasal congestion, rashes, and more serious reactions like headaches, memory loss, dizziness, trouble concentrating, and even hearing loss.
Q: How long does it take to get the results from the lab?
A: Once we send the samples to the lab, they are usually back within 3-5 business days.
Q: Do I need air quality testing if you’re already treating my home or property for mold?
A: If we find mold during a visual inspection, usually that is sufficient evidence for remediation and we do not need further air quality testing. However, we’re happy to do it as an additional service if you need it for inspection purposes, or if you want to be extra thorough in your mold remediation process.
