Why Mold Testing is Necessary
Homes and workplaces often have mold growth which requires mold testing to assess the risks to occupants. Mold testing helps to determine the types of mold present and whether they are a health hazard. Mold testing not only determines the species present but through more advanced mold testing methods a mold test can also quantify the concentrations of mold present in the air. Often mold testing is used to determine if there is a mold problem present in a building.

The advantages of MBL approach.
- If we find no mold in the samples you sent to us (or the ones we collected), you will have peace of mind that you or your family are not likely to be exposed to mold. If the family is sick, you and your doctor can then concentrate on other possible causes of sickness having eliminated mold.
- If we find mold we will be able to advise you whether it is something you can clean-up yourself (depending on area of contamination) or you need a professional to do it for you, thus saving you money if a professional was not required.
- We strongly adhere to professional ethics and we are independent of mold removal companies so our reports and advice are reliable and unbiased.
