Common questions
Helpful answers about inspections, sampling, and what to expect.
What is the difference between an inspection and testing?
An inspection looks at the property and the conditions you are concerned about. Testing involves collecting samples for laboratory analysis. They answer different questions, so discuss the scope with Darlene before scheduling.
Why take an outdoor air sample?
For indoor mold-air sampling, Darlene uses an outdoor sample as a comparison control. Indoor results are considered alongside the outdoor conditions and property findings. Her protocol includes at least one outdoor and one indoor sample; the full sampling scope depends on the property.
Does Lancaster Environmental Testing analyze the samples?
No. Samples are sent to a third-party laboratory for analysis. Darlene collects the samples and explains the findings and available next steps.
Can testing tell me why I feel unwell?
Environmental testing can provide information about the specific things sampled. It cannot diagnose a medical condition, establish the cause of symptoms, or assess every possible indoor-air concern. Speak with a healthcare professional about symptoms.
Is testing required when buying a home?
Not in every transaction. A buyer, seller, agent, or lender may request specific information. Confirm the documentation and deadlines with the parties involved, then discuss the appropriate inspection or sampling scope.
What does an inspection or testing cost?
Cost depends on the property, inspection scope, number and type of samples, and laboratory analysis. Additional lab targets may carry extra charges. Discuss the scope and price with Darlene before the visit.
