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
