Independent Mold Testing in Tampa, FL

When mold is suspected but not visible, or when objective laboratory data is needed to help evaluate indoor conditions, sampling may be appropriate. We take air and surface samples and send them to an independent laboratory. Because we do not perform remediation, our testing results are objective. If you need help understanding the process, check our frequently asked questions.

Factors Affecting Cost

Pricing varies based on several factors. We provide clear pricing before any work begins.

• Number of air or surface samples required
• Rush laboratory turnaround options
• Number of zones or rooms tested
• Whether a written remediation protocol is requested

Service Limitations

Mold testing provides a snapshot of conditions at the time of sampling. Spore levels can fluctuate based on activity, ventilation, and weather. Depending on the laboratory method, testing can help identify the genus and, in some cases, the species of mold present. Testing does not diagnose medical conditions.

Florida-Specific Considerations

Florida law requires mold assessors and mold remediators to be separate licensed parties on qualifying projects. Our testing is performed independently, and we do not profit from any remediation work that may follow.
