Many people believe that mold only grows in dirty houses or buildings, and that mold does not grow in clean and tidy homes or companies. The truth is that mold may grow anywhere, in any type of home, business, or structure. Mold testing helps you determine exactly what type of mold you are dealing with, the risks involved and the best method to remove it if it’s become a problem.
Residents and staff are often unaware that they have a mold issue and end up suffering major health problems as a result. That is why mold testing is so important. Patriot Property Restoration Services LLC is a mold testing business based in Ocean County. Mold testing is something we do for both homes and businesses.
Mold Can Make You Sick
Mold produces spores that can make you sick, as well as provoke asthma attacks and other respiratory problems. Black mold has the potential to be extremely toxic. Approximately 500,000 spores are contained in a dime-sized area of mold. Because spores may easily flow through general air currents and HVAC systems and cross-contaminate the premises, a mold problem in one room can quickly become a full building problem. Our experienced mold inspectors can assist you in determining what is causing mold growth in your home or company through comprehensive mold testing.
Sneezing, runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, nose and throat, cough and postnasal drip, wheezing, rashes, and more are all symptoms of mold disease. Call us immediately to schedule a consultation if you believe you’ve been exposed to mold in your home or office.
When Should Mold Be Tested?
- Before buying or selling a home or property, especially if suspect mold was discovered during a home inspection, consult with a professional.
- If you notice mold or smell a musty stench,
- Following a flood, a leak, or a sewage backup
- If a person or a pet is exhibiting allergy-like symptoms,

Surface Testing vs. Air Testing: Precision in Mold Detection
Surface Testing:
Surface testing for mold involves collecting samples directly from surfaces where mold growth is suspected. This method offers a more accurate depiction of the mold present in the environment.
- Precision in Identification: It directly samples the area of concern, providing clear evidence of mold presence or absence on specific surfaces.
- Insight into Mold Species: Surface tests help identify the type of mold present, aiding in understanding the severity of the contamination.
- Strategic Sampling: It targets specific locations prone to moisture or suspected mold growth, offering a focused analysis.
Air Testing:
Air testing captures mold spores present in the air. While it’s useful in certain scenarios, it may not always offer a comprehensive view of the mold situation.
- Limited to Airborne Spores: It detects mold spores suspended in the air but doesn’t pinpoint the exact source or location of the mold growth.
- Varied Spore Concentrations: Airborne spore concentrations fluctuate, making it challenging to determine the actual mold problem’s extent.
- Environmental Variability: Factors like airflow, time of sampling, and environmental conditions can influence results, potentially leading to inconsistencies.
