Testing for what a walkthrough cannot show you, plus the termite inspection that is usually booked alongside them. Each is booked on its own or added to a home inspection visit, and the questions further down help if you are not sure which one fits.
Book tests separately or alongside a home inspection. Tell us which services you need so we can confirm the appointment arrangements.
We test and report. We do not sell the remediation. No one here earns anything from a result coming back high.
Choose a test for the question you need answered. For selected air or surface samples, see mold; for radon measurements, see radon; for particle, vapor or gas readings, see air quality; and for selected tap-water tests, see water quality. Tell us the property details, affected areas and any lender requirements so we can confirm the appropriate service before booking.
Yes. Tell us which tests you want with your home inspection. We will confirm the visit arrangements and expected report timing for each selected service.
The physical sample, an air cassette or a water or material sample, is analyzed by an independent accredited laboratory rather than by the person who collected it. The laboratory result is what appears in your report.
No. We do not do remediation, mitigation, abatement or water treatment, and we take no referral fee from the companies that do. That is deliberate: the result should not be written by anyone who profits from it.
No. A home inspection is visual and non-invasive, and it will not tell you the radon level, the spore count or whether a material contains asbestos. Those come only from a test.
