We take our Air Sampling quite seriously and why shouldn’t we? After all, it’s the air YOU breathe and YOUR health that’s at stake.
Interested in a quote for mold, asbestos or bacteria sampling?
Call now to request your no cost or obligation consultation where our consultant can provide you with a price quote. (Within 10 km of Saskatoon and Regina). Out of town consultations are billed out at $0.80 per km and $37.50 per hour drive time.
Here is why it’s FREE
It is very difficult to provide an accurate price for sampling over the phone or on the Internet due to so many variables:
1. Air sampling is not recommended as a first step to a mold inspection.
2. Only after a professional consultant has a chance to investigate the building envelope and get a history of the building is air sampling ever recommended based on the information acquired during a visual inspection (in some cases air samples are not required at all).
3. The number of air samples taken is to be determined based upon the above information along with the noted on site atmospheric conditions, and if the suspected mold concern is hidden.
4. The number of bulk, tape, or swab samples to be taken must be determined using a variety of specifics such as tertiary (water loving) and non tertiary (non water loving) types of mold, extent of growth and complaints of potential health concerns.
5. Once results are received from an accredited laboratory if the samples are of a potentially toxigenic genus your consultant will contact you immediately and recommend to have them cultured to determine the actual species, which will once again change the price.
6. A detailed report with pictures and results will be provided both digitally and a hard copy at your request.
Our Laboratory of Choice!
We work with 3rd parties when it comes to doing air/bulk sampling for our clients. Once samples have been taken we then have them sent for analysis but not to just any laboratory, we prefer using Mold Bacteria Consulting Laboratories (MBL) in Mississauga, Ontario.
MBL is privately owned and one of the top Microbiology Laboratories in Canada. They provide nothing but the highest quality in testing and consulting with over 20 years experience in mold and bacteria analysis. Not only are they one of the best in Canada, but they are also Leaders among North American Microbiology laboratories.
Before and after samples are crucial when dealing with Mold Removal. We want to make absolute sure that once we’ve completed a mold removal project that the air you breathe is back to a normal fungal ecology. This can only be done by having a THIRD PARTY take air samples which are then sent to our trusted partner, Mold Bacteria Consulting Laboratories (MBL) for analysis.
“My son has had respiratory problems in the past. We have fought a big battle in order to restore his health. This past spring, his oxygen capacity was measured and the specialists told me that he was at 90% capacity and would likely never improve further but we are thankful for the 90% (as he was once at 63%). Well, today, we returned for our regular appt. and his lung capacity today measured at 116% -- that's right 116%!!!! Better than us!! The Specialist asked me to check off a list of lifestyle and activity changes that we have undergone during the last 6 months. After looking over the form, I couldn't really check anything off. But, it dawned on me that "Mold Remediation" was not on the list. I spoke to the Specialist about this and he was ABSOLUTELY FLABERGASTED!!!!! He then proceeded to quiz me about the process, amount of remediation required, the company that did the job, etc.. He is completely convinced that the remediation process has increased the lung capacity of my son by 26%! This improvement of quality of life is extraordinary, in this Specialist's opinion and literally could remove Spencer from his case load at this time after 13 years of absolutely fighting for his respiratory life!! Throughout our conversation, he decided to keep Spencer on his caseload to follow through his progress since the remediation and forward. He finds this case extremely interesting. He is SHOCKED at the improvement in health after 13 years of meds which could only provide him up to 90% capacity. SOMETHING else improved his respiratory capacity 26% and he is convinced it is the mold removal.
I thank you and your team so much!! I have also noticed an improvement in my health as I used to sneeze and sneeze -- but NO longer. I have many new building materials in my home but they haven't created any type of allergy, sneezing or breathing problems.
Thank you seems to be so trivial but I know no other words of gratuity to say for such a wonderful improvement in our lives.
THANK YOU!!!” – Cherylee Highway, Saskatoon, SK
“On June 29th 2010 our basement flooded, two days before our wedding. The GOTMOLD? crew was called at 4:30am and were on site before 7am cleaning up the water and drying out our basement.
They were very professional, friendly and handled the contract without issue.
We are very thankful for their exceptional service and would highly recommend them.

“We were concerned when we discovered mold under some old linoleum in our furnace room in the lower level of our home. We had some leakage issues in the past as well as a recent sewer back up.
I remembered seeing the 'got mold?' truck around town and decided to give you a call. Ben came out and assessed the situation and gave us a quote to clean everything up. I liked the idea that he sealed everything off and carefully cleaned and bagged everything before he removed it. He worked quickly and accomplished a lot in his day on site.
I also appreciated the hepa air filter he ran for about seven days to thoroughly clean the air before taking down the plastic containment walls. We learned a lot from the process and will most definitely be more diligent in identifying leaks early and cleaning them up immediately.
Thanks to Ben and everyone at got mold?, we can rest assured our home is safe.” – Maureen McIntosh, Pike Lake Sk.

“I would like to express my appreciation of your service and staff during our recent storms in Saskatoon. My home was a victim of severe sewer back up. Many of my belongings were destroyed and my entire basement had to be gutted.
Your team was the first to respond to many calls and right from the beginning your service was excellent. You have a winning team at Got Mold and I have already recommended your services to others.
It is a pleasure to work with an organization that realizes they’re dealing with people not just a situation.” – Gary Bird - Saskatoon, Sk
“We are very impressed with all the work that was done -very professional! My son had developed health issues shortly after the flood, he was coughing a lot and we had to put him on a medicated puffer because the house hadn’t been cleaned properly by the first restoration company.
got mold? was so empathetic and generous in that we were given filtration equipment and air movers for the cost of delivering them. Since got mold? was here, our son’s health is back to normal, he isn’t coughing anymore and no longer requires his puffer!
To everyone at got mold? thank you!!
