Indoor air sampling
Air samples show what's floating in the room right now. Each indoor result is compared against an outdoor sample taken the same day.
Whether you're dealing with a landlord, a home sale, or a family member who feels worse indoors, call Breffni Remediation. We'll connect you with an independent mold tester in Refugio who gets you lab results you can stand behind.
Not every situation needs a lab. But when there's a dispute, a sale, or a health question, numbers from an accredited lab settle arguments that eyeballing can't.
Answered day and night, holidays too.

Sloppy sampling produces meaningless numbers. These are the standards we expect from the testers we refer.

Testers use calibrated air pumps with spore trap cassettes, sterile swabs, and tape-lift slides, and always pull an outdoor control sample for comparison.
Pricing is set per sample before the visit. No surprise lab charges after the results come back.
Local testers schedule quickly, and many labs offer next-day or 24-hour rush analysis when a deadline is close.
Insurance, licensing where required, and accredited lab partners are the baseline we look for in every independent tester.
Different questions call for different samples. Here's what testers in our network typically offer.

Clear tape or a sterile swab picks up material from a suspicious stain so the lab can confirm whether it's mold and which genus it is.
A small port lets the tester sample air inside a wall without opening it, which is useful when you suspect growth behind finished drywall after a leak.
After removal, air samples inside the former work area should come back in line with outdoor levels, without elevated indicator types like Stachybotrys or Chaetomium. This is how you know the job is done.
Lab reports with chain-of-custody records give buyers, sellers, tenants, and landlords objective evidence instead of competing opinions.

Straightforward, start to finish.
Describe the situation and what you need to prove. That shapes the sampling plan.
A local tester arrives with calibrated equipment, takes an outdoor control, and samples the rooms or surfaces you're concerned about.
Samples go to an accredited lab. You already know the cost from the upfront quote, and you'll know when to expect results.
You get the lab report plus a plain-language explanation of what the numbers mean and whether remediation is recommended.

A few recent testing jobs, in customers' own words.

My landlord kept saying the spots in my bedroom were just dirt. The tape-lift came back as Cladosporium and Aspergillus, and the air sample was well above outdoor levels. That report got the repair done.
I wanted proof the remediation actually worked. The clearance air samples came back lower than the outdoor control, and I finally felt comfortable moving my kids back into the basement.
We were selling and the buyer asked about a past leak. One wall cavity sample and an air test showed nothing unusual, and the deal closed on time.
The tester explained the numbers clearly instead of just emailing a PDF. Knowing what was normal versus elevated made the whole thing less stressful.
Air tests tell you what you're breathing. Surface tests tell you what a visible stain actually is.
Without an outdoor baseline, indoor numbers have nothing to be compared against. It's what makes the results meaningful.
Standard lab turnaround is usually two to three business days. Many labs offer 24-hour or same-day rush analysis for an added fee.
Not very. Petri-dish kits grow mold in nearly every home, which tells you little. Professional sampling measures volume and compares indoor to outdoor air.
No official threshold exists. Testers look at how indoor counts and types compare to outdoor air on the same day.
ERMI analyzes settled dust using DNA methods to identify mold species. It's sometimes used in health-related investigations, though most residential decisions rely on air and surface sampling.
