Mold Inspections & Air Quality Testing in Jacksonville, FL
Protect Your Health and Home with Certified Mold Testing
Expert Detection for Hidden Dangers
Mold is more than a nuisance — it can affect indoor air quality, damage building materials, and contribute to serious health problems. At Affiliated Home Inspections, Inc, we provide certified mold testing and air quality assessments for homeowners across Jacksonville, Orange Park, St. Johns, and surrounding communities.
With over 25 years of combined experience in home and environmental inspections, we use professional-grade testing equipment and lab analysis to identify mold spores, moisture issues, and air contaminants. If you suspect mold, have recently had water damage, or are experiencing allergy-like symptoms in your home, our testing services offer clarity, documentation, and peace of mind.
Why Mold Testing Matters in Florida Homes
Florida’s warm and humid climate creates ideal conditions for mold growth. Whether it’s a leaky roof, plumbing issue, or improperly ventilated space, excess moisture can lead to hidden mold behind walls, under flooring, or in HVAC systems.
Common reasons homeowners request mold testing:
Musty odors that won’t go away
Visible spots on drywall or vents
Real estate transactions
Recent water damage or flooding
Health symptoms like coughing
Remediation verification
Because mold isn’t always visible, professional testing helps determine whether unseen contamination is affecting your home’s air quality or structure.
Signs You May Need Mold Testing
While mold can grow anywhere there’s moisture and organic material, these warning signs often point to a mold problem:
Persistent musty or earthy smell indoors
Recent roof, plumbing, or HVAC leaks
Discoloration on walls, ceilings, or floors
Foggy windows or visible condensation
New Paragraph
Unusual fatigue or allergies at home
Mold growth in the attic or crawl space
If any of these apply, professional testing can help uncover the issue before it worsens.
What Our Mold Testing Includes
At Affiliated Home Inspections, we offer both air and surface sampling depending on your concerns and what’s found during the inspection.
Air Quality Testing
We take indoor air samples and send them to a certified lab to analyze the concentration and types of mold spores in your home’s breathing air. A control sample is also taken from outside your home for comparison.
- Identifies airborne mold presence
- Useful when no visible growth is present
- Detects hidden mold behind walls or ceilings
Surface Sampling
We swab or tape test areas with visible discoloration or suspected mold growth. This allows us to determine the type of mold present and the extent of contamination.
- Confirms type of mold (e.g., Cladosporium, Aspergillus)
- Supports insurance claims
- Supports remediation decisions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
Can mold be present even if I don’t see it?
Yes. Many mold problems are hidden behind walls, ceilings, or under flooring. Air testing is the best way to detect invisible mold.
How long does the lab analysis take?
Results are typically returned within 2–3 business days after sampling.
Is the testing process invasive?
No. Air samples are taken using small cassettes and pumps. Surface samples are swabs or tape lifts. All testing is non-destructive.
What if mold is found?
We provide documentation and guidance, but we do not perform remediation. We can refer you to licensed professionals if needed.
