Mold Clearance Testing
Mold Clearance and Post-Remediation Testing
Verification that the remediation you paid for actually worked, from a company with no connection to the crew that did it.
Why Clearance Testing Should Never Come From the Remediation Company
If you've already had mold remediation done, whether by your own contractor or one required by a landlord, insurer, or property manager, the natural next question is: did it actually work? Asking a remediation contractor to confirm their own job is clean creates an obvious conflict of interest. West Coast Mold Test never performs remediation, which means when we clear a property, that clearance means something. It's a genuinely independent second opinion, not a rubber stamp from the same team that did the work.
When Clearance Testing Is Typically Required
- After professional mold remediation, before a property is re-occupied
- Before closing on a real estate transaction where remediation occurred
- To satisfy insurance, landlord, or property management requirements
- To resolve a dispute between a tenant and landlord after remediation work
What's Involved
We inspect the previously affected area along with adjacent spaces that could have been impacted during the remediation process itself, collect air and/or surface samples, and send them to a certified third-party lab. Your report will document whether spore levels and conditions have returned to what's typical for a normal indoor environment, giving you, or whoever required the clearance, a documented answer.
If a property doesn't pass, we document exactly what still needs attention so you, or your remediation contractor, know precisely what to address before a re-test. That documentation matters just as much as a passing result: it turns a vague sense that something is still off into a specific, actionable punch list, rather than leaving everyone guessing about what to fix next.
Good Timing
Schedule clearance testing once the remediation contractor confirms work is complete and the space has had time to dry and stabilize. Call to confirm timing for your specific situation.

Clearance Testing FAQ
How soon after remediation should clearance testing happen?
Typically once the remediation contractor confirms the work is complete and the space has had time to dry and stabilize. Call (702) 766-8030 to confirm timing for your situation.
What if the property doesn't pass?
We'll document exactly what was found so you or your remediation contractor know precisely what still needs attention before a re-test.
Do I need this if my landlord already had someone else check it?
If that someone else was the same company that performed the remediation, an independent third-party clearance is worth having, especially if you plan to rely on it for a lease, sale, or legal matter.
