Air Sampling
Analyze air quality under normal and disturbed conditions.
Surface Sampling
Collect tape lifts, swabs, or bulk samples to identify mold types.
Visual Inspections
A detailed walkthrough to identify visible mold or moisture issues.

Why unbiased mold testing matters
Many mold inspection companies also provide remediation services, creating a conflict of interest. At Mold Catchers, our only goal is to give you accurate, honest results. We don't sell remediation services, so you can trust our recommendations to be in your best interest.
Mold questions
Do Utah homes get mold?
Despite Utah's dry climate, mold can grow in homes wherever moisture is present, with common indoor molds including Aspergillus and Stachybotrys. Indoor humidity, leaky pipes, and poor ventilation create ideal conditions for mold growth in Utah homes, making professional testing essential.
How much does mold testing cost?
Mold testing costs typically range from $300 to $1,000, depending on the size of the property, the number of samples collected, and the complexity of the testing method used (such as air sampling, surface sampling, or moisture mapping).
How accurate are air mold tests?
Air mold tests are generally accurate, with studies showing they can detect up to 90% of airborne mold spores when conducted properly by trained professionals. However, for a more comprehensive mold analysis, experts often combine air sampling with additional methods like surface swabs and tape lift samples.
What are the signs of mold in a home?
Mold in a home can be detected through key signs like musty odors, visible discoloration on surfaces, persistent moisture, and health symptoms including allergic reactions and respiratory issues. Additional indicators such as peeling wallpaper, water leaks, visible mold growth on furniture, and high indoor humidity suggest the potential presence of mold and the need for professional inspection.
Molds found in Utah
Aspergillus
Aspergillus mold, commonly found in Utah homes on food, air conditioning units, and moist areas, can trigger allergy symptoms in Utahns and pose serious risks to individuals with weakened immune systems or lung conditions.
Black Mold
Stachybotrys, commonly known as black mold, thrives in damp areas like air vents, bathrooms, and basements, and while it may release mycotoxins linked to severe health issues, it typically causes standard allergy symptoms in Utah residents.
Cladosporium
Cladosporium mold, often found in Utah homes on bathroom walls, cabinets, toilets, air ducts, and attics, thrives in humid areas and can trigger allergic reactions or asthma attacks, but is typically less harmful than toxic black mold.
Penicillium
Penicillium, a fast-spreading blue or green mold often found in insulation, furniture, and water-damaged areas, can trigger allergy symptoms like sneezing and itchy eyes and may lead to respiratory issues with prolonged exposure.
