Mold Testing

Mold is a naturally occurring fungus found in both indoor and outdoor environments. While mold plays an important role in nature, excessive indoor mold growth may indicate moisture problems and can affect indoor air quality.

Potential Health Effects

Exposure to indoor mold may cause allergic reactions, respiratory irritation, and aggravation of asthma symptoms in sensitive individuals. People with allergies, asthma, existing respiratory conditions, or weakened immune systems may be more susceptible to mold-related health effects.

Why Test for Mold?

Mold can grow on building materials when moisture is present. Water leaks, elevated humidity, flooding, and inadequate ventilation can contribute to indoor mold growth. Laboratory analysis can help identify fungal spores and evaluate the types and concentrations present in collected samples.
