Air Quality & Mold Testing in Palm Beach and Martin County

Certified Testing for Homes, Apartments, and Commercial Properties

Identify What’s in Your Air Before It Affects Your Health

If you suspect mold in your home or office, don’t wait for it to become a bigger problem. At RMS Environmental, we provide professional air quality testing and mold inspections to help you detect hidden dangers like black mold, mildew, VOCs, and airborne bacteria. Using advanced sampling techniques and certified laboratory analysis, we give you the answers you need to take control of your indoor environment.

Serving Palm Beach and surrounding areas since 2007, we’re trusted by homeowners, renters, landlords, and businesses who want accurate testing, fast reporting, and honest results—without pressure or unnecessary upsells.

What We Test For

Indoor air can harbor a wide range of pollutants—many invisible and odorless. After a mold outbreak, deep cleaning, or renovation project, contaminants can linger in HVAC systems, on surfaces, and in the air itself. These include:

• Mold spores
• Bacteria and bioaerosols
• VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)
• Pet dander, dust mites, and pollen
• Mildew and residual odors

Without proper treatment, these contaminants can continue to impact your health—even after visible signs are gone. Air quality sanitization targets these airborne threats, creating a cleaner, safer space for your family, tenants, customers, or staff.

Who Needs Mold & Air Quality Testing?

Our services are ideal for:

• Homeowners noticing musty odors, water damage, or unexplained health symptoms
• Tenants and landlords involved in rental disputes or looking for move-in/move-out inspections
• Realtors and homebuyers needing certified mold inspections before closing
• Employers concerned about indoor air quality for staff or customers
• Post-remediation testing to confirm successful cleanup
• Anyone living with allergies, asthma, or weakened immune systems

If you’ve recently had water damage, leaks, or suspect hidden mold, professional testing is your first line of defense.

Our Testing Process

Consultation

We begin with a brief consultation to understand your concerns, symptoms, or recent property history. We’ll explain what to expect and recommend the appropriate sampling methods.

On-Site Inspection

Our technician arrives at your home or business and performs a full walkthrough. We inspect high-risk areas such as:

• Kitchens and bathrooms
• HVAC vents and air returns
• Under sinks, behind drywall, and around windows

Areas with visible staining, water damage, or musty smells

Sampling & Collection

Depending on your needs, we may take:

• Air samples to detect airborne mold spores and VOCs
• Surface samples or swabs from visible growth
• Wall cavity tests for hidden mold
• Humidity and moisture readings using specialized meters

All samples are properly documented and sealed for lab analysis.

Laboratory Analysis

Samples are analyzed by an accredited lab that identifies:

• The types and quantities of mold spores
• VOC levels compared to industry benchmarks
• Presence of allergens or biological contaminants

Most results are returned within 2–4 business days.

Detailed Reporting

You’ll receive a full report including:

• Lab results and interpretations
• Photos of any visible concerns
• Moisture readings and risk zones
• Clear next steps for remediation or monitoring
• Recommendations for improving ventilation and prevention
  

Types of Mold We Test For

There are thousands of mold species, but some of the most common we encounter include:

• Aspergillus – Often found in dust, walls, and HVAC systems
• Penicillium – Grows on water-damaged materials and can trigger allergies
• Stachybotrys (Black Mold) – A toxic mold associated with severe health symptoms
• Cladosporium – Frequently found on wood and textiles
• Chaetomium – Often follows long-term water intrusion

Our reports include identification and concentration levels so you understand the severity and potential health implications.
