Are more samples ever needed?

Often not. But if additional samples are needed (for example, in larger homes or to test multiple rooms), they are $50 each. It’s entirely up to you whether to add extra samples or stick with the standard three included in the base price.

 

Is this a DIY kit?

No. This is a professional, in-person service done by a certified mold expert.

​

Why not just use a DIY mold test kit?

DIY kits might seem easy, but they come with serious limitations. You don’t get a trained professional to interpret the results or explain how to fix the issue—it’s like trying to self-diagnose a medical condition. Many kits also produce false or misleading results, fail to detect hidden mold, and don’t address the root cause: moisture. Without identifying the moisture problem, any solution is just a temporary patch—and the mold will return.
