Mold Testing
Our mold testing service identifies fungal contamination through air, surface, and bulk sampling. Utilizing EPA-certified protocols, we measure mold spore concentrations, analyze hidden growth, and compare indoor/outdoor levels. Results from accredited labs inform remediation strategies, with specialized assessment for mycotoxins and moisture sources. Ideal for health concerns, real estate transactions, or post-flood verification.
VOC Analysis
We test for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) like formaldehyde and industrial chemicals using calibrated detectors and lab-grade sampling. This service identifies off-gassing from building materials, furniture, and household products. Clients receive detailed reports on contaminant types, concentrations, and mitigation steps. Specialized in diagnosing chemical sensitivities and workplace exposure risks.
Indoor Air Quality Inspection
Comprehensive assessments measure temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, and particulates alongside biological and chemical contaminants. Our protocol includes mold, bacteria, allergen, and VOC testing to diagnose symptoms like allergies or chronic fatigue. Reports provide actionable solutions for improving ventilation and eliminating pollution sources in homes and offices.
Bacteria Detection
We identify harmful bacteria (Legionella, E. coli, Staphylococcus) through microbial culture and PCR analysis. Testing covers water systems, HVAC units, and contaminated surfaces post-flood or sewage damage. Clients receive risk assessments and remediation guidance to prevent infectious outbreaks in residential or commercial environments.
Odor Source Identification
Our team locates odor sources using chemical analysis and moisture mapping. Whether from mold, smoke, or industrial chemicals, we employ gas chromatography and microbial testing to pinpoint causes. Solutions include targeted remediation and air purification strategies to permanently eliminate persistent smells in residential or commercial spaces.

Healthy Indoor Professionals is your best choice in case you have a mold problem in your home. We had a flood in our home this spring and I have been feeling sick in the past few months. We asked Dr. Ava to investigate our home for mold, and the results amazed me. She was very knowledgeable, experienced, patiently answered all our questions and found our home mold problem. She gave us recommendation to be able to remove and clean the mold growth and guided us with our mold remediation process. ABSOLUTELY 5 STARS!

I appreciate Aba.
Aba was so informative. I called to ask her to schedule an appointment and to find out how much it would cost for someone to come inspect my house for air quality. Instead, she help me trouble shoot over the phone for the few possibilities my air quality is causing my allergic reaction. I just had a new air conditioner installed, new duct work, hepa filter and air scrubber. I discovered the air scrubber irritated my throat and smelled bad. So I had it removed, I continued to have problems which resulted in a ER visit. Aba said it is probably not the 5 inch hepa filter

Very pleased with the service I received from Ava! She was available on short notice, very detail oriented, and kindly explained her whole process and methodology to me so I'd understand where we were testing, how, and why, and give my input. She took her time during the inspection, included me throughout the process, and when she got the lab results she explained them in a very clear and helpful manner along with her personal recommendations. I've used another mold inspection company before who didn't explain as much about why/where/how they were testing, and I felt much more panicked
