You cannot see most indoor air problems. Mold spores, fine dust, and gases given off by building materials float through the air you breathe at home and at work. A test tells you what is actually in it.

Our team collects the samples, sends them to a lab, and explains the results in plain language. Call (204) 789-1514 and we will book a time that works for you.

What Is Air Quality Testing?

Air quality testing measures what is in the air inside a building. We take samples in the rooms you use most, plus one outdoor sample for comparison, and send them to a laboratory.

Different problems call for different tests. A musty basement points to mold spore sampling. A fresh renovation points to a check on chemical vapours. We pick the test that matches what you are dealing with.

Why Is Poor Indoor Air Quality So Harmful?

You breathe indoor air for most of the day, so what is in it matters. Poor indoor air can set off asthma attacks, allergy reactions, and infections in the airways.

It also makes existing conditions worse. People with allergies, asthma, or emphysema usually notice it first. A test tells you whether the air is the cause before you spend money on the wrong repair.

✔Dust particulate sampling for dust mites and other common indoor pollutants
✔Airborne mold spore sampling, also used to confirm that a remediation worked
