Indoor air sampling
A pump draws a measured volume of air, often about 15 liters per minute for five to ten minutes, through a spore trap cassette. The lab counts and identifies spores per cubic meter.
Whether you're dealing with a landlord, a home sale, or a family member who feels worse indoors, call Breffni Remediation. We'll connect you with an independent mold tester in Brooks who gets you lab results you can stand behind.
Not every situation needs a lab. But when there's a dispute, a sale, or a health question, numbers from an accredited lab settle arguments that eyeballing can't.
Answered day and night, holidays too.

Sloppy sampling produces meaningless numbers. These are the standards we expect from the testers we refer.

Expect a calibrated pump, sealed sampling cassettes, and at least one outdoor baseline so indoor results mean something.
Pricing is set per sample before the visit. No surprise lab charges after the results come back.
Calls are answered 24/7 and routed to a tester near Brooks. Standard lab results usually come back in two to three business days, with rush options available.
Insurance, licensing where required, and accredited lab partners are the baseline we look for in every independent tester.
The right test depends on what you're trying to prove. These are the common options.
A pump draws a measured volume of air, often about 15 liters per minute for five to ten minutes, through a spore trap cassette. The lab counts and identifies spores per cubic meter.
Clear tape or a sterile swab picks up material from a suspicious stain so the lab can confirm whether it's mold and which genus it is.
Testers can sample inside a wall through a tiny hole, checking hidden spaces without demolition.
After removal, air samples inside the former work area should come back in line with outdoor levels, without elevated indicator types like Stachybotrys or Chaetomium. This is how you know the job is done.
Lab reports with chain-of-custody records give buyers, sellers, tenants, and landlords objective evidence instead of competing opinions.

Here's what happens after you call.
Tell us why you want testing: a smell, symptoms, a dispute, a sale, or clearance after removal. The goal decides which samples make sense.
A local tester arrives with calibrated equipment, takes an outdoor control, and samples the rooms or surfaces you're concerned about.
Samples go to an accredited lab. You already know the cost from the upfront quote, and you'll know when to expect results.
You get the lab report plus a plain-language explanation of what the numbers mean and whether remediation is recommended.

Here's what some recent callers shared.

My landlord kept saying the spots in my bedroom were just dirt. The tape-lift came back as Cladosporium and Aspergillus, and the air sample was well above outdoor levels. That report got the repair done.
I wanted proof the remediation actually worked. The clearance air samples came back lower than the outdoor control, and I finally felt comfortable moving my kids back into the basement.
We were selling and the buyer asked about a past leak. One wall cavity sample and an air test showed nothing unusual, and the deal closed on time.
He walked me through every number on the report instead of just emailing a PDF. Knowing what was normal versus elevated made the whole thing less stressful.
Air sampling measures spores floating in a room compared with outdoor air. Surface sampling identifies what's growing on a specific spot. Many situations call for one or the other, not both.
Mold spores are always present outdoors. The outdoor control sets a baseline, so indoor results can be judged by whether they're higher or contain different types than outside.
Typically a few business days, with faster rush options when you're facing a closing date or move-in deadline.
Settle-plate kits from the hardware store almost always grow something because spores are everywhere. Without an outdoor control or measured air volume, the results can't tell you much.
There are no federal limits for indoor mold spores. Results are judged by comparing indoor samples with outdoor controls and looking for water-damage indicator species.
ERMI analyzes settled dust using DNA methods to identify mold species. It's sometimes used in health-related investigations, though most residential decisions rely on air and surface sampling.
Homes, apartments, offices, and rentals across Brooks can all be sampled through one 24/7 call.
