Mold Testing
Mold often hides where you can’t see it—but it can harm your property and health long before it becomes visible. Edwards Property Remediation provides professional mold testing to detect hidden growth, identify mold species, and protect your indoor air quality.
Why Mold Testing Matters
Mold growth is more than just unsightly—it can cause structural damage and trigger serious health issues, especially for children, seniors, and those with respiratory conditions. Professional testing helps you:
Identify mold before it spreads
Pinpoint the type of mold present (including toxic strains)
Locate hidden contamination behind walls, floors, and ceilings
Protect your family, tenants, or employees from harmful exposure
Common Mold Types We Detect
Our certified team uses advanced testing to find and identify harmful molds, including:
Fusarium – thrives in cold, damp areas, often in carpets and fabrics
Penicillium – spreads quickly through insulation, furnishings, and water-damaged materials
Aspergillus – commonly found indoors, affecting air quality
Stachybotrys (Black Mold) – highly toxic, often found on wet drywall, wood, or paper
