Certified Lab Testing
At Insight Inspections, we only use certified AHIA laboratories for our mold air samples.
The certified lab will analyze the mold spores in a systematic process to identify and quantify the types and concentrations of mold present in a given sample.
The first step is sample collection, which can be done using various methods such as air sampling or surface swabs. Air sampling requires at least one outdoor control sample and two indoor tests in the area of the suspected source of mold contamination.
Once the samples are collected, they are transported to the laboratory under controlled conditions to prevent contamination.

Mold Is Usually Hidden
You may suspect hidden mold if the occupants are reporting health issues or there is a musty odor or history of water intrusion.
Mold may be hidden in places such as the back side of drywall, wallpaper, or paneling, the top side of ceiling tiles, the underside of carpets and pads. Other areas can be behind walls or above ceiling tiles where moisture has occurred or around windows and inside ductwork.
There are many places for mold to “hide” and only a trained inspector with the proper equipment can find these hiding places.
At Insight Inspections, we use moisture meters, infrared cameras, and mold air sampling to determine the amount of mold contamination and the source of the outbreak.
