Why Use In-Wall Mold Air Sampling?
Standard air tests might not detect mold hidden behind walls, drywall, or paneling. In-wall air sampling draws air directly from inside the wall cavity using a tube and pump, helping uncover what standard air tests may miss.
When Is In-Wall Testing Recommended?
- After water damage or leaks inside walls
- If you see stains or bubbling paint but no visible mold
- Persistent musty odors with no obvious source
- When occupants have symptoms but normal testing is clean
- Before or after drywall repair/removal in suspect areas
How It Works
We carefully insert a sterile air tube through a small drill hole or wall outlet. Air is pulled from inside the wall into a spore trap cartridge. The sample is sent to a certified lab for analysis, with results typically in 24–48 hours.

In-wall air sampling pulls air directly from inside your wall cavities to detect hidden mold that standard tests may miss. It’s useful when there are odors, water damage, or no visible growth.
When should I consider wall cavity testing?
You should consider it if there was water damage behind drywall, musty odors with no source, or staining and bubbling on walls without visible mold.
