Mold can be a serious issue — not just for your property, but for your health. At Vert Environmental, we offer professional mold testing services to help homeowners identify hidden issues and make informed decisions about remediation. Here are the most common questions we get about mold testing:
If you’ve had recent water damage, noticed musty odors, or are experiencing unexplained health symptoms like headaches or allergies, mold testing can help pinpoint the problem. It provides scientific evidence of mold presence, type, and concentration — essential for guiding next steps.
Our certified technicians take a combination of:
Air samples to test indoor air quality
Surface samples to check visible growth
Wall cavity testing if hidden mold is suspected
Samples are sent to an accredited lab, and results are typically available within 24–48 hours.
DIY kits are often unreliable and don’t give you the context needed to interpret results. Professional testing includes an inspection, moisture readings, lab analysis, and expert interpretation — something no over-the-counter test can provide.
It depends. Some policies cover testing if mold is caused by a covered peril (like a burst pipe). We’re happy to review your situation and assist with documentation for insurance claims.
We’ll walk you through the findings in plain English, including:
The types of mold present (some are more harmful than others)
Whether levels are elevated compared to normal environments
Recommended next steps — including whether remediation is necessary
And if remediation is needed, we can help coordinate or refer you to trusted professionals (we can also test again post-remediation to confirm clearance).
Not all mold is toxic, but even non-toxic mold can cause respiratory issues, especially in children, seniors, and those with compromised immune systems. Testing gives peace of mind and protects your family’s health.
