There are three main types of mold testing: air sampling, surface sampling, and bulk sampling. Air sampling is the most common type of mold testing. It involves taking a sample of the air in your home or office and sending it to a laboratory for analysis. Surface sampling involves taking a sample of mold growth on a surface, such as a wall or ceiling, and sending it to a laboratory for analysis. Bulk sampling involves taking a sample of the material that the mold is growing on, such as insulation or carpeting, and sending it to a laboratory for analysis.

Mold inspectors will also take samples of the air and surfaces in your home or office to test for mold to see if there are any high levels detectable.

If you suspect that you have a mold problem, it's essential to have professional mold testing done as soon as possible.
