Mold inspection and air quality testing in Los Angeles
Cali Mold Testing books the inspections below. We test and sample only — we do not remediate — and every sample goes to an accredited lab.
Core mold inspection
Mold Inspection
Cali Mold Testing performs a full visual and moisture assessment of your property, checking bathrooms, kitchens, attics, and crawl spaces for hidden growth. Licensed inspectors document every finding with photos so you know exactly what is happening before deciding on next steps.
Residential Mold Inspection
Homeowners across Los Angeles rely on Cali Mold Testing for room-by-room residential inspections that pinpoint moisture intrusion behind walls, under sinks, and near window seals. Reports arrive with annotated photos that hold up for insurance claims and peace of mind.
Commercial Mold Inspection
Office buildings and mixed-use properties across Los Angeles turn to Cali Mold Testing for commercial inspections that keep tenants safe and operations compliant. Our licensed team surveys HVAC systems, break rooms, and storage areas with minimal disruption.
Apartment Mold Inspection
Renters and property managers throughout Los Angeles request Cali Mold Testing for apartment mold inspections that document unit conditions clearly for lease disputes or repair requests. Our conflict-free process means findings are never inflated to justify extra work.
Condo Mold Inspection
Condo owners in Glassell Park bring in Cali Mold Testing when shared walls or aging plumbing raise mold concerns. Inspectors check unit interiors and common-wall penetration points, then deliver a same-day or next-day report that HOA boards and neighbors can both reference.
Black Mold Inspection
Concerned about black mold behind drywall or flooring? Cali Mold Testing sends licensed inspectors equipped with moisture meters and thermal imaging to locate suspected Stachybotrys growth, then confirms the species through accredited lab analysis rather than guesswork.
Whole-House Mold Inspection
For a complete picture of a Los Angeles property's condition, Cali Mold Testing offers a whole-house mold inspection covering every accessible room, the attic, crawl space, and garage. Same-day scheduling is available for families who need answers quickly. Book online anytime.
Basement and Crawl Space Mold Inspection
Below-grade spaces trap moisture longer than the rest of a home, which is why Cali Mold Testing offers dedicated basement and crawl space mold inspections using calibrated moisture meters. Findings are documented with photos so contractors know precisely where to focus repairs.
Sampling methods
Mold Testing
Air and surface samples collected by Cali Mold Testing are analyzed by an accredited third-party lab, giving you defensible data on mold species and spore concentration rather than a guess. Licensed inspectors explain the results in plain language once the report is ready.
Air Quality Mold Testing
Musty odors and unexplained allergy symptoms in a Los Angeles home often point to airborne mold spores. Cali Mold Testing runs indoor and outdoor control air samples so you can compare spore counts and understand whether your indoor air needs attention. Book online anytime.
Surface Mold Sampling
When mold is visible on drywall, wood, or tile, Cali Mold Testing performs surface sampling to confirm the species and rule out cosmetic staining that only looks like mold. Swab and tape lift methods are chosen based on the material being tested. Results are lab-verified.
Swab Testing for Mold
Swab testing from Cali Mold Testing samples suspicious spots on grout, wood trim, and other hard surfaces around a property. Results come back from an accredited lab identifying the exact mold species present, which helps guide any remediation decisions. Book online anytime.
Tape Lift Mold Sampling
For delicate or painted surfaces where swabbing could cause damage, Cali Mold Testing applies tape lift sampling to capture spores without disturbing the material. This method works well on wallpaper, fabric, and finished wood throughout Los Angeles homes. Book online anytime.
Spore Trap Air Sampling
Spore trap air sampling from Cali Mold Testing pulls a measured volume of air through a cassette to capture airborne particles for lab analysis. It is the most common way to detect mold that has not yet become visible on any surface in the home. We serve all of Los Angeles.
Bulk Material Mold Sampling
Some materials, like insulation or carpet pulled during a renovation, call for bulk sampling rather than a swab. Cali Mold Testing packages and submits these samples to an accredited lab to confirm whether contamination has spread beyond visible boundaries. Book today online.
ERMI Mold Testing
Property owners dealing with unresolved health concerns sometimes request an ERMI-style dust analysis. Cali Mold Testing collects settled dust samples from carpets and HVAC returns and sends them to an accredited lab for a detailed mold species breakdown. Call today to schedule.
Mycotoxin Testing
When occupants report ongoing symptoms even after visible mold has been removed, Cali Mold Testing can arrange mycotoxin testing through an accredited lab partner to check for toxin-producing mold byproducts that surface sampling alone may miss. We serve all of Los Angeles.
Mold Species Identification
Not every mold poses the same risk, so Cali Mold Testing sends every sample to an accredited third-party lab for species identification. Your report names the exact mold found, its typical health implications, and how it compares to outdoor baseline levels. Book online anytime.
Indoor air quality
Indoor Air Quality Testing
Beyond mold alone, Cali Mold Testing offers indoor air quality testing that captures a broader snapshot of what occupants are breathing in a Los Angeles home or office. Same-day scheduling helps families with allergy concerns get answers fast. We serve all of Los Angeles.
Home Air Quality Assessment
A comprehensive home air quality assessment from Cali Mold Testing evaluates ventilation, humidity, and airborne particulate alongside mold spore counts. Licensed inspectors walk you through practical steps to improve conditions once testing is complete. Call today to schedule.
HVAC Mold Testing
Central air systems can circulate mold spores throughout an entire Los Angeles property without anyone noticing. Cali Mold Testing inspects ductwork, coils, and drip pans for growth, then samples the airflow to confirm whether the HVAC system is contributing to the problem.
Attic Air Quality Testing
Poor attic ventilation traps heat and moisture that feed mold growth long before it reaches living spaces. Cali Mold Testing tests attic air and inspects roof decking and insulation for early signs of contamination using calibrated moisture meters. Photos accompany every report.
Humidity and Moisture Level Testing
Chronic high humidity is one of the clearest predictors of future mold growth in Los Angeles properties. Cali Mold Testing measures relative humidity and building material moisture content to flag rooms at risk before visible mold appears. Book online anytime.
Allergy Trigger Air Testing
If a household in Los Angeles is dealing with unexplained coughing, headaches, or sinus irritation, Cali Mold Testing offers allergy trigger air testing that screens for elevated mold spore counts as a possible contributing cause, backed by lab-verified results.
Office Indoor Air Quality Testing
Employers across Los Angeles schedule office indoor air quality testing through Cali Mold Testing when staff report symptoms tied to a specific workspace. Findings are documented in a report suitable for facilities management or building ownership. Call today to schedule.
School and Daycare Air Quality Testing
Because children are especially sensitive to poor air quality, Cali Mold Testing provides school and daycare air quality testing that follows the same rigorous sampling protocol used in residential inspections, with reporting timelines built around facility schedules.
Moisture, leaks, and thermal imaging
Moisture Intrusion Inspection
Mold cannot grow without a water source, so Cali Mold Testing traces moisture intrusion back to its origin using calibrated meters on walls, floors, and ceilings. Identifying the source is the step most competing inspectors skip on the way to a quick sample. Book online anytime.
Thermal Imaging Mold Inspection
Infrared cameras reveal temperature differences that often signal hidden moisture behind drywall or under flooring. Cali Mold Testing includes thermal imaging on every inspection at no extra step, catching problems a purely visual walk-through would miss entirely.
Water Damage Mold Assessment
After a pipe burst, roof leak, or appliance failure, Cali Mold Testing evaluates whether the water event has already led to mold growth inside wall cavities or subflooring. Fast scheduling matters here, since spores can establish within 24 to 48 hours of moisture exposure.
Roof Leak Mold Inspection
Aging roof seals in Los Angeles let moisture travel into attic framing long before a stain appears on the ceiling below. Cali Mold Testing inspects roof leak pathways with thermal imaging to catch contamination early. Book online anytime.
Plumbing Leak Mold Inspection
Slow plumbing leaks under sinks or behind washing machines are among the most common mold sources Cali Mold Testing encounters. Moisture meters and visual inspection identify affected cavities so repairs can target the right wall or floor section. Results are lab-verified.
Window and Seal Moisture Inspection
Worn seals, shifting frames, and hairline stucco cracks let moisture collect around windows in Los Angeles homes. Cali Mold Testing checks frames, sills, and adjacent walls for intrusion that could be feeding hidden mold growth nearby. Book online anytime.
Foundation Moisture Inspection
Rising dampness and poor grading can wick moisture into a home's lowest framing members without any visible sign upstairs. Cali Mold Testing measures foundation-level moisture and documents conditions that could support future mold growth if left unaddressed. Book online anytime.
Bathroom Ventilation and Mold Inspection
Poorly vented bathrooms are one of the top mold complaints Cali Mold Testing investigates, especially in older Los Angeles homes. Inspectors check exhaust fan performance alongside moisture readings behind tile and around tub surrounds. Ask about scheduling options.

Home Inspector Mold Add-On Testing

Post-Remediation Air Clearance
Post-cleanup indoor spore counts are compared against an outdoor control sample by Cali Mold Testing to confirm a remediation project actually restored normal air quality. This air clearance step is often the final requirement before a project is considered closed.
Third-Party Mold Verification
Because Cali Mold Testing performs testing only and never remediation, our clearance reports carry weight with insurers and attorneys who need an unbiased second opinion. Los Angeles property owners use this service to close out disputed claims with confidence.
Post-Construction Mold Clearance
Renovation debris and construction moisture can leave behind mold that surfaces only after drywall goes up. Cali Mold Testing offers post-construction mold clearance testing before a Los Angeles remodel is considered finished and ready for occupancy. We serve all of Los Angeles.

Insurance Claim Mold Clearance Report
When an insurance claim hinges on proof that remediation resolved a covered mold event, Cali Mold Testing delivers an insurance claim mold clearance report built on accredited lab results rather than a visual sign-off, which adjusters can rely on directly. Book online anytime.
