Post-Remediation Verification & Clearance Testing in Tampa
After remediation is complete, you want objective confirmation that the job was done correctly. As an independent testing company, we provide clearance testing that verifies mold spore levels have returned to typical background conditions before containment is removed. We did not perform the remediation, so our verification is fully objective. Learn more about our mold testing services for the full process.

- Number of air samples required for clearance
- Rush laboratory turnaround

Service Limitations
Clearance testing verifies conditions at the time of testing. It does not guarantee that mold will not return if the underlying moisture source is not permanently resolved or if new water intrusion occurs.
Florida-Specific Considerations
Florida law requires that the party who assesses or tests a property be independent from the party who performed the remediation. Because we do not remediate, we are legally permitted to perform clearance testing on remediated properties.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should clearance testing be performed?
Clearance testing must be performed after the remediation is complete and the area has been cleaned, but before the containment barriers are removed or any reconstruction begins.
What happens if the clearance test fails?
If the test fails, the remediation contractor must re-clean the area and address any remaining issues before a re-test is performed.
Do I really need clearance testing?
Clearance testing provides objective, lab-verified evidence that the remediated area meets defined clearance criteria before reconstruction. While not every situation legally requires it, clearance testing is strongly recommended to document that conditions have returned to typical levels.
Can you perform clearance testing if you didn't do the initial inspection?
Yes. As an independent testing company, we can perform clearance verification regardless of who performed the initial assessment or the remediation.
