FactorAverage Cost
Basic Air Test$200 - $400
Surface Sampling$300 - $600
Bulk Material Testing$400 - $700
Comprehensive Mold Inspection$500 - $1,000
Laboratory Analysis$150 - $300

The cost of mold testing varies based on the scope and complexity of the inspection. Basic air sampling typically involves lower costs, suitable for preliminary assessments. More detailed testing, such as bulk sampling or surface analysis, tends to be more expensive due to the need for specialized equipment and laboratory analysis. Larger properties or those with extensive mold growth may incur higher fees to cover comprehensive testing and detailed reporting. It is essential to consider the potential costs of remediation when evaluating testing expenses, as early detection can prevent more significant damage and expenses later.
