    Licensed Spore Shield inspector with FLIR thermal camera
    Independent

    Zero conflict of interest

    We test and document only. We never bid on the remediation — so your tenants, owners, and insurers see results they can trust.

    Speed guarantee

    72-hour lab results

    Same-week scheduling across your portfolio, certified lab analysis back within 72 hours so you can make the call before vacancy stretches.

    Legally defensible

    Spore Shield Certified™

    Per-unit documentation accepted by insurers, attorneys, and housing inspectors. The paper trail that ends the dispute before it starts.

    Pro-grade every unit

    Lab-grade equipment

    FLIR thermal camera, calibrated Buck BioAire air samplers, accredited third-party lab — every inspection, every unit, every time.

    The Cost of Doing Nothing

    One mold complaint can cost more than
    a year of inspections.

    Tenant disputes, insurance denials, vacancy losses, and habitability claims all share the same fix: independent documentation, captured before the conversation gets adversarial.

    $15K+
    Avg habitability claim

    Without independent baseline documentation, owners and managers absorb the cost of disputed claims they had no way to defend.

    MCL 554.139
    Michigan landlord duty

    State law requires landlords to keep premises fit for habitation. Independent testing is the cleanest way to demonstrate compliance.

    30 days
    Avg vacancy delay

    Unresolved mold concerns stall turnover, lease-up, and renewal — every day a unit sits empty is rent you cannot recover.

    100%
    Independent third-party

    We test only — we never bid on the remediation. That is the difference between a defensible record and a conflict of interest.

    • Common-area HVAC contamination
    • Basement and crawlspace moisture
    • Stack-line leak migration
    Aligned Incentives

    Tenants and owners both win.

    Independent testing closes the loop on the most expensive disputes in property management — habitability claims, security-deposit fights, and insurance denials — because both sides see the same lab-certified results from a third party with no skin in the remediation game.

    Owners

    Documented baseline at handoff. Clear paper trail for insurance carriers. Lower risk of disputed claims at sale or refinance.

    Managers

    Defensible response to every tenant complaint. Faster turn cycles. A paper trail that protects the management agreement.

    Tenants

    Confidence at move-in that the unit is documented mold-clear by an independent third party — not the landlord's contractor.

    Insurers

    Third-party documentation that meets the standard for claim review and clearance — issued by inspectors who do not remediate.
