Professional Mould Testing & Monitoring Services in Sydney

Our Scientific Mould Testing Methods

To accurately identify and quantify a mould problem, a simple visual check is not enough. At AAA Mould Removal, we use a combination of industry-leading, scientific testing methods to provide you with a complete picture of your property's indoor environment. Our process is built on precision and clarity.

1. Air Sampling & Air Quality Testing

Often, the most significant mould problems are the ones you can't see. If you suspect hidden mould behind walls, in ceilings, or in your HVAC system, air sampling is the definitive way to find out.

• How it works: Our certified technicians use a specialized air pump and cassette system to capture a controlled volume of air from your property. We also take an outdoor air sample to act as a baseline or "control."

• What it reveals: These samples are sent to an independent, accredited laboratory to be analysed. The analysis identifies the types of mould spores present in your air and, crucially, their concentration levels compared to the normal outdoor environment. Elevated indoor spore counts are a clear indicator of an active, hidden mould colony.

2. Surface Sampling (Swab & Tape Lift)

When mould growth is visible or suspected on a surface, we need to identify its exact species to understand the potential risk and determine the most effective remediation strategy.

• How it works: Depending on the surface, we use either a sterile swab or a special tape lift to carefully collect a physical sample of the mould. This is a non-destructive process that gathers the necessary material for analysis.

• What it reveals: The lab analysis of a surface sample can precisely identify the mould species (e.g., Stachybotrys chartarum, Aspergillus, Penicillium). This information is vital for a targeted and effective mould removal plan.

3. Comprehensive Lab Reporting & Expert Consultation

Data is only useful when you can understand it. We believe in complete transparency and ensure you are fully informed every step of the way.

• What you receive: Following the laboratory analysis, you will receive a comprehensive report detailing all the findings. This includes the types of mould identified, their concentration levels, and what those levels mean for your property's health.

• Our commitment to you: We don't just hand you a complex report and walk away. One of our mould experts will personally walk you through the results, explaining everything in plain English. We will answer all your questions and provide clear, professional recommendations on the necessary next steps, whether it's a full remediation or a simple monitoring plan.
