Lead and Mold Testing Costs Overview
Larger properties typically require more samples and time, increasing testing costs.
Laboratory analysis versus on-site testing can influence overall expenses.
Comprehensive testing for multiple areas or materials tends to be more costly.
| Factor | Average Cost Range |
|---|---|
| Lead Testing (Laboratory) | $300 - $700 |
| Mold Testing (Air Sample) | $200 - $600 |
| Surface Mold Swab Test | $150 - $400 |
| Bulk Material Testing | $400 - $1,200 |
| On-site Rapid Testing | $100 - $300 |
| Comprehensive Property Testing | $1,000 - $3,000 |
| Post-Remediation Testing | $250 - $800 |
The costs associated with lead and mold testing vary based on the complexity of the inspection and the number of areas evaluated. Laboratory analysis provides detailed results but can be more expensive, especially when testing multiple samples from different locations within a property. On-site testing offers quicker results with lower costs but may lack the detailed insights of laboratory methods. Property size and the extent of suspected contamination influence the total expenses, with larger or more complex properties requiring more extensive testing procedures.
In addition to initial testing, follow-up assessments after remediation or repairs are often necessary to confirm the effectiveness of cleaning efforts. These post-remediation tests tend to be more affordable but are essential for ensuring safety and compliance with health standards.
