Evidence-based testing
Mold testing translates visible symptoms — odors, discoloration, allergy flare-ups — into measurable data. Raphael Mold Inspection collects samples with calibrated equipment, ships them under chain-of-custody to accredited partner laboratories, and delivers results you can rely on for health, real estate, insurance, or remediation planning.
Three sampling methods
Air sampling captures airborne spores using a calibrated pump and collection cassettes. Surface (tape-lift) sampling collects material from a suspect surface for microscopic identification. Swab sampling targets specific spots — useful for identifying species of visible growth. Inspectors recommend the right combination based on what we find at your property.
Reports built to act on
Each report includes property notes, sample locations, laboratory data sheets, interpretation in plain language, comparison of indoor to outdoor spore counts where relevant, and recommendations. Reports work equally well for homeowners deciding next steps and for remediation contractors scoping work.
