Mold identification, mold test kits and testing supplies. If you suspect you have a mold problem give us a call toll free and we can walk you through your testing options.
It was easy to take the samples and mail them. The results came back in a reasonable amount of time. We got the information we needed. Some of the mold was not to worry about. I would use this company again, especially if they offered a two for one deal.
Description of Work: tested two samples of mold and gave report of what type of mold it was and whether it was dangerous or not

I intend to use them again. The test was easy to do with everything I needed right there. Very professionaly done. You just are not paying for someone else to run the simple equiptment.
Description of Work: Read air quality of tubes I sent them. We have a mold issue from a water leak into the basement. Actually a contractor had a professional come into our home for $500.00 and we wanted to verify their tests. Results were the same and these lab people spent time on the phone explaining and educating me way beyond my expectations.

I needed to test my house quickly because my 4-year-old had a chronic cough whenever he was in the house. I ordered on a Friday and moldlab said they would mail the kid Monday. They didn't mail it until Thursday and by then I had already hired a local company to do the testing sooner. The people at Moldlab were very nice and except for not receiving the test in time my interactions with them were very pleasant.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal from Moldlab.

Within moments of ordering kit we were contacted to see if we needed any information, to thank us for ordering and sending tracking information. In the kit we had full instructions, everything needed to do air samples and a return label prepaid. We heard back from company earlier than promised with our results, explanations and a phone number to call if we had any questions. Fast, polite and helpful people at this company

The instructions were easy to follow and I had watched another person do similar testing so I felt confident I did a good job gathering samples. My primary objective was to double check a tester/remediation service that was suggesting $6000 worth of remediation. The Moldlab results did not match those of the people I had here except for the outside sample which was in the same ballpark. Now my quandry is......who do I believe.
Description of Work: They shipped equipment to gather air samples along with three canisters to capture air samples. I purchased 4 additionals canisters at a cost of $156.00. The package was returned post paid (however the post office charged me $11 additional - I didn't pursue the reason why) and I had my results in about 4 working days from the time it was shipped. The report had the data presented in several different formats along with explainations and FAQ's.

We will contact the member center to request a refund. Due to the recent confusion with our email notification system, we have changed our kit order system. Effective immediately all test kit orders are being shipped out via U.S. Priority Mail. In addition, members receive a message in the member message center with a kit tracking number as confirmation of their order. We are confident this change in procedure will rectify the problem we have been having with missing kits. We thank your for the review and are glad to speak to you on our toll free number 1-866-416-MOLD if we can answer any concerns or questions.

I highly recommend Moldlab for their expertise, professionalism, and timely provision of detailed results from the sample analysis. I ordered the kit on a Friday, it arrived on a Saturday, we collected five air samples on Sunday, shipped the samples back on Monday, and the results were emailed to us on Tuesday! Once we got the results, Kristina kindly helped us interpret them and identify cost-effective ways to reduce mold spores in a few problem areas in our home. As a scientist, I was fascinated by the whole process and appreciated being empowered with the knowledge gained from Moldlab.
Description of Work: Supplied us with the necessary equipment to sample air for mold spores both inside and outside our home. Processed samples that we returned to them to identify mold species present. Emailed the results from the analysis and offered insight about ways to address problem areas during phone consultation.

It worked out pretty good. What they did was they gave me samples of mold and I put it on the wall, and I sent it back to them until they sent me a report. The deal was to supply all the materials and do the testing. The service was great and they get back to me on what they said they would.

They provided the materials in a timely fashion. The instructions were easy to follow and didn't take long to perform the test. The only issue I had was they forgot to send me my results. However, when I called, they quickly resolved that issue and were very professional about handling it. If I felt I needed to check for mold again, this would be a service I would look to again.
Description of Work: Provided materials to perform mold tests and evaluated the tests to determine the results.

Response from Moldlab
Our sincerest apologies for the confusion. We will call and email today to fix this situation and make the arrangements necessary to get your testing kit sent out ASAP. For other members, please note that once a Do It Yourself service is purchased from Moldlab, we respond immediately with a follow up email to the email on record with Angie's List. The email gives the member two options depending on their preference: 1). have us mail out a test kit with pre-manufactured test slides or 2). to watch a short video and use your own household supplies to collect your mold samples to send to the lab. We offer the two options because some homeowners need the laboratory results ASAP and waiting for a test kit to arrive in the mail, simply isn't fast enough. Again, we sincerely apologize for the confusion. Your member comments and feedback are very important to us. If you have any questions about the test kits, we encourage you to give us a call toll free at 1-866-416-MOLD (6653) and discuss your mold situation.

I sent samples in (easy process) and they emailed info to me re what types of mold I was dealing with. I would have been more impressed if they had included information on what to do to get rid of the mold. But, overall, they did what they promised and I'm happy with that.
Description of Work: Identified two patches of mold I had under two sinks.

The kit works fine. We couldn't use them to clean because the building owners wanted to bring in their own contractor. They did a good job, they were quick turning it around once we sent back samples and everything.
Description of Work: Moldlab did a testing. They sent a list of all the stuff they found inside the wall and they had a guide to describe each kind of mold and how dangerous it was or if there was any danger to humans. It was pretty clean. They found two kinds and neither of the were harmful to people.

They were prompt in sending the air pump and components to me. I shipped the contents back to them on a tuesday and I received my emailed lab results that Saturday. The lab results were extremely helpful. If you have questions or aren't sure, just read through all of the information attached to your results, you will most likely find your answer. I still had a few questions so emailed them, she emailed back within a few hours and asked for my cell. She spent 45 minutes answering my questions (we had a few odd variables to work with in the results) and she led me in the right direction. If you are suspicious of mold growing in your home and you want peace of mind in knowing where it may be , which type of mold and if there are high amounts or trace amounts, I would recommend using this company.
Description of Work: Mailed an air pump with hose and petri dish (cartridge) to my home, then tested petri dishes upon return to their lab.

I purchased an Angie’s List Big Deal for this service and they were very good, just fine. I went with them because they were independent and didn't try to sell me remediation. They seemed to have a very good price from what I saw and researched. I was very happy with them. I put the mold sample in a ziplock back and mailed it to them. They contacted me back by email and it was in a very timely fashion. Their email was very easy to understand and was very clear. When I first tried to call them their office had already closed so I had to call them the next day.
Description of Work: I used Moldlab to give me instructions on how to send in a mold sample. They did not come to my house.

We had purchased a big deal for the service, and it went well. I sent the test in, and it came back a couple days later. This was the first time that I used them. The report was detailed, and they explained the different types of molds and issues with each mold, which I thought was very beneficial. I called the lab, and the lady doing the tests spent about 5 minutes talking to me about the tests.
Description of Work: We used Moldlab. I got 4 tests done.

No problems. I mailed in the samples following the simple directions provided. Within a few days I received the emailed report as promised. As expected they were positive for mold. After some work to clean things up I plan to use this provider again. I like that there has been NO pressure to buy further services.

Timely mailing of materials, easy instructions......the only issue I had was when they detect mold , they give you the type and # of counts........then that;'s it......no help in interpreting the results.......There are no real standards for amounts of molds reasonably accepted inside a home, but better guidance is needed. It's like telling someone there is arsenic in your water or feces in your mcdonalds burger.......well there is .....but certain amounts pose no danger.......and with molds.....especially black mold no government agency has established guidelines......when you turn to the internet, you can find a little info but all in all very frustrating........I guess these test are better for determining if you have an issue or not.
