Our Work
Recent mold testing projects.
Pre-purchase mold inspection, post-remediation clearance, or hidden-mold suspicion? Our lab-certified air and surface sampling delivers third-party-quality results in 3-5 business days. Independent reports — separate from remediation when you need that separation.
If you're buying a home, post-remediation, or have unexplained symptoms, you want a tester who isn't selling the remediation. We offer testing as a standalone service with results delivered as a clear PDF report — spore counts, species ID, and a plain-English summary.
Fort Myers home buyers — especially in older McGregor Boulevard and downtown Fort Myers historical neighborhoods — should pull an air sample as part of due diligence. Many of these homes were re-roofed after Ian but had hidden cavity moisture overlooked during the rush. Independent testing identifies what was missed.
Our Fort Myers crew works across the full city — from Edison & Ford Winter Estates, Downtown River District, Centennial Park, JetBlue Park (Red Sox spring training), Bell Tower Shops, McGregor Boulevard — and we're familiar with how mold testing scope changes between Downtown River District and McGregor Boulevard.
Fort Myers disaster history: Hurricane Ian (2022 — significant), Hurricane Irma (2017), historic 1926 Miami hurricane. Pre-purchase testing in this market should account for multi-storm cumulative cavity damage.
The two phone calls we take most often: a board member at a Royal Park or Riviera condo asking for unit-level air sampling after a complaint, and a buyer's agent on a McGregor Boulevard or Edison Park estate asking for a pre-purchase clearance before the 10-day inspection contingency runs out. Both situations need an independent firm — one with no remediation incentive on the result — running spore-trap and surface sampling to an AIHA-accredited lab. That independence is the entire reason the report holds up downstream with lenders, attorneys, or association counsel.
We run Air-O-Cell spore-trap cassettes on a Zefon Bio-Pump calibrated to 15 LPM, five-minute samples per location. For a condo unit at High Point Place or Oasis Tower we pull two outdoor controls (one upwind at ground level, one at the unit's balcony elevation so high-rise UV and breeze patterns are matched), then interior samples at the master, return-air grille, and any visible water-stain location. For a McGregor estate we add a crawl-space or attic sample because those spaces drive the air the HVAC pulls. Surface tape-lifts confirm genus on suspect drywall or baseboard the inspector flagged.
Any lab work we submit goes to an AIHA-LAP-accredited facility. The report comes back with raw spore counts per cubic meter, indoor/outdoor ratios, and genus-level identification — Aspergillus/Penicillium, Stachybotrys, Cladosporium, Curvularia all reported separately, not lumped. We read the numbers against the building's age and known event history. A 1958 Edison Park home that took roof damage in Ian and shows 2,100 Aspergillus/Penicillium spores/m³ in the master with 240 outdoors reads differently than a 2017 Pelican Preserve build with the same numbers. Context decides whether the data is actionable.
Several Fort Myers lenders working in the McGregor and Iona price tiers now require a third-party mold clearance letter before they release a closing wire on any home with a prior water claim. Condo associations along the river corridor — Royal Park, High Point Place, Riviera — have disclosure protocols that trigger on a positive lab result inside a unit. We give buyers and boards a plain-language summary alongside the raw lab data so the disclosure decision is informed, not reactive. Most Fort Myers homes test clean. The buyer's job is to confirm that with documentation, not assume it.
We do not remediate what we test, and we do not test what we remediate. That firewall is the only reason an independent Fort Myers lab report carries weight with the closing attorney, the buyer's lender, and the next inspector to pull the file. Reports turn around in 3-5 business days from the Bell Tower Shops drop zone, faster on a closing crunch — and a project manager walks the buyer through every number on the report before any contingency decision goes in writing.
Air pumps run for 5 minutes per sample. Surface or cavity swabs collected from suspected areas. Indoor-vs-outdoor baseline always pulled.
Samples sent to an AIHA-accredited independent lab. Spore counts and species identification.
3-5 business day turnaround. Clear PDF with results, comparison to outdoor baseline, and remediation recommendations if needed.

Our Fort Myers mold testing crew dispatches across the full city — from Downtown River District, McGregor Boulevard, Iona, San Carlos Park, Gateway, Whiskey Creek, Cypress Lake, College Parkway, Pelican Preserve, Edison Park, covering ZIP codes 33901, 33907, 33912, 33913, 33916, 33919, 33966, 33967. Sampling locations are chosen based on the building's construction type and prior disaster exposure.
Fort Myers insurance carriers we work with: Citizens, full carrier mix; large insurance broker network in downtown. We bill direct on most claims and document to adjuster standards from the first call.
Same crew, same standards — we cover the surrounding cities too:
Most associations in Fort Myers high-rises require third-party assessment before and after any remediation that touches a demising wall or chase, and Florida law requires the assessor be a separate licensed entity from the remediator. We coordinate with a Florida-licensed mold assessor (MRSA) to collect Air-O-Cell cassette samples in the affected unit, the adjacent unit, and an exterior baseline. Results go to an AIHA-accredited lab. The post-remediation verification uses the same sampling pattern so the board has defensible documentation if a future owner questions disclosure.
For a McGregor Blvd estate of that vintage, a basic visual inspection misses the common problem areas: cavity moisture behind original plaster, AC closet condensation, and the slab-to-baseboard interface. We recommend a licensed assessor pull at least three Air-O-Cell air samples, indoor and outdoor baseline, plus tape lifts on any suspect staining and a cavity sample behind a register grille. An AIHA-accredited lab returns spore counts within 48 hours. The report becomes leverage during inspection negotiation and a baseline if you later file a claim with Citizens or Florida Peninsula.
An Air-O-Cell is a spore-trap cassette pulled at 15 liters per minute for five minutes by a calibrated pump. The slide is then read by an AIHA-accredited lab under direct microscopy for total spore counts and genus identification. In Fort Myers, where ambient outdoor Cladosporium and Aspergillus/Penicillium counts run high year-round, the indoor-to-outdoor ratio matters more than raw numbers. We always pull a matched outdoor sample from upwind of the structure so the lab report has a defensible baseline rather than a single in-unit count.
Settle-plate kits sold at hardware stores will grow something in nearly every Fort Myers home, because ambient outdoor spore loads from Centennial Park to JetBlue Park are naturally high in our climate. They produce no quantitative data, no genus identification beyond a guess, and no chain of custody, so no Florida insurance carrier and no real estate transaction will accept them. If you want defensible results, the Florida statute pathway is a licensed assessor pulling spore-trap samples to an AIHA-accredited lab, which is what we coordinate.
Post-remediation verification, sometimes called clearance, runs the same day the containment is broken. The licensed assessor performs a visual and moisture inspection, then pulls Air-O-Cell samples inside containment and a matched exterior baseline. Lab turnaround through an AIHA-accredited facility is typically 24 to 48 hours, with rush available. On a Fort Myers high-rise where the unit owner is paying loss-of-use, we plan the sampling for early morning so results can clear before the weekend and the rebuild crew can mobilize Monday.
