Tape Testing

Surface samples collected quickly and without any damage, when growth is visible but needs lab confirmation.

Overview

Why mold tape testing matters

Not every dark patch is mold. Tape testing is a fast, reliable method for confirming whether visible buildup is fungal and identifying the species behind it, before assumptions drive an expensive cleanup.

Mold tape testing detects:

  • Mold on walls, ceilings, and furniture surfaces
  • Visible buildup on smooth or dusty areas
  • Species identification on painted and finished walls
  • Early growth caught before it has time to spread

About

How mold tape testing works

Our certified mold inspectors press a clear adhesive slide against the suspect area to capture a thin layer of surface material. The slide is sealed and sent to a state-certified lab for mold species identification.

Our process includes:

  • Surface sampling with sterile adhesive slides
  • Lab analysis for species type and contamination level
  • Lab-verified results with spore counts where relevant
  • A mold inspection report with clear next steps
