Our Mission at Meredith
A certified technician will inspect your areas of concern and determine the best type of mold testing, air quality sampling, or surface sampling.
Mold is not always visible to the naked eye. Air quality sampling determines the amount of airborne mold spores in the tested area. Surface sampling is used to determine if a visible substance is mold and what type of mold it might be. All samples are sent to a specialized AIHA-accredited third-party laboratory for full analysis.
Mold exists in every environment, even the one in which you’re reading this. It can become a concern when certain types of mold reach elevated levels inside a space. It needs moisture and proper temperature to grow and spread. Inside a property, it is usually the result of excess moisture, high humidity, or poor ventilation, and the root cause needs to be addressed.
Mold, toxic?
Mold itself is not toxic, but many types do produce mycotoxins. Stachybotrys Chartarum and Penecillium are two commons types of mold that produce mycotoxins. Symptoms depend on level and length of exposure and include: headaches, itching, rash, eye irritation, and potentially more serious health effects like kidney and liver disease.
We take multiple samples inside the property and a control sample outside. This allows the lab to determine if particulates inside the property are there and at what levels they are present.
We will swab any visible microbial like growth present in the property. The samples allow the lab to determine what types of mold are present.
