Every testing scenario covered with accredited methodology.

Non-Viable Spore Trap Air Sampling
Spore trap cassettes collect airborne particles that are then analyzed under microscopy to identify mold genera and count spore concentrations. Compared against an outdoor baseline sample, this data shows whether indoor spore counts are elevated and which genera are present. Fastest turnaround for routine Havre de Grace, MD air quality assessment.
🏭
Viable Culture Air Sampling
Culture plates capture live, culturable mold spores that then grow in the lab — allowing species-level identification and colony-forming unit counts. Used when species-level data matters: occupational health concerns, Stachybotrys investigation, or situations where genus-level data from spore traps isn't sufficient for your Havre de Grace, MD use case.
🎖
Surface Swab & Tape Lift Sampling
Surface samples collected from visible growth areas — swabs for culture analysis or tape lifts for direct microscopy — identify the species present on specific surfaces. Used to confirm whether visible staining is mold and which genus/species is involved before committing to remediation scope.
📄
Post-Remediation Clearance Testing
After mold remediation, clearance testing compares treated zone air samples to outdoor baseline — confirming indoor spore counts are back to acceptable levels before re-occupancy. Our Havre de Grace, MD clearance testing uses the same accredited lab protocol as pre-remediation sampling, so results are directly comparable.
🏢
HVAC & Ductwork Air Testing
Testing at HVAC registers and returns identifies whether the air distribution system is a mold source. High spore counts at registers compared to room-level samples indicate the system is contributing to indoor air quality problems — a critical finding before any duct cleaning or coil remediation decision in Havre de Grace.
🔋
Bulk & ERMI Sampling
ERMI dust sampling for your Havre de Grace property gives a historical picture of mold accumulation — useful when symptoms are present but air sampling comes back normal, or when assessing long-term remediation success.
