DNA evidence, not a visual guess.
Mould contamination is frequently hidden — behind walls, beneath floors, or within insulation — with no visible surface sign. DNA analysis confirms the presence of contamination and identifies the specific species, including those most associated with health and building risk.
Stachybotrys
“Black mould.” Associated with prolonged water damage and hidden saturation — often the species clients are most concerned to rule in or out.
Aspergillus
A common and widely distributed genus. Some species carry respiratory and immune-system relevance, making identification important.
Penicillium
Frequently found alongside damp and condensation issues. Rapid colonisation makes it a useful indicator of an active moisture problem.
Everything the kit includes.
The price covers the full testing chain — from kit delivery to express courier transit to the accredited laboratory, through to your written report and a securely stored digital backup.
Primary laboratory swab
One primary swab taken for full laboratory DNA analysis.
Secondary backup swab
A second swab taken from the same location and clearly marked. If the primary sample produces an unclear result, the backup is automatically analysed to ensure accuracy.
Kit delivery to your address
The complete test kit delivered to you, ready to use, with sampling instructions.
Express courier to the laboratory
Express courier delivery from our office to the accredited European laboratory once we receive your samples.
Full written laboratory report
A complete written report, issued within 2–5 working days of the lab receiving your sample.
Secure digital backup
A digital backup copy of your report stored securely on file for your records.
One central sample can represent up to 150m².
The sensitivity and precision of qPCR DNA analysis means a single, correctly placed sample can represent a large area — keeping testing cost-effective while maintaining laboratory accuracy and representativeness.

What the report means for you.
Your laboratory report gives you clear evidence either way. Here is what each outcome typically indicates — and what, if anything, usually follows.
Hidden contamination is likely present.
A positive result indicates hidden contamination is likely behind or within building materials — for example walls, floors or insulation.
In such cases, a professional mould investigation or remediation service may be required to locate and safely remove the source.
Laboratory evidence for your records.
A clear result provides documented, laboratory-grade evidence for the tested area — useful for peace of mind, tenancy records, sale or purchase due diligence, or insurance correspondence.
Your report and its secure digital backup remain on file for your records.
Any follow-up work or inspection is not included in the test price and would be quoted separately at full professional rates. Due to travel distances and the specialised nature of this work, site visits are fully chargeable and not discounted against the cost of the DNA test. The test provides laboratory evidence; any further investigation or remediation is a separate service
Laboratory precision, independently verifiable.
This is the same DNA-based method relied on by environmental consultants and insurance assessors across Europe — built for precision, speed and verifiable accuracy.
DNA-level precision
Identifies the exact mould species — even where contamination is hidden or dormant and produces no visible surface sign.
Trusted across Europe
The same method used by environmental consultants and insurance assessors to confirm hidden contamination.
Fast turnaround
Full written report delivered within 2–5 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample.
Accredited analysis
Laboratory analysis carried out under qPCR European standards at an accredited European laboratory.
Backup swab assurance
A second swab from the same location ensures reliable, verifiable results if the primary sample is unclear.
Wide area coverage
One correctly placed central sample can represent up to 150m² per floor — cost-effective without compromising accuracy.
