The accuracy of a mold inspection is only as good as the tools being used. A visual walkthrough alone misses the majority of active mold conditions in South Florida properties because the most significant growth is almost always behind a surface, not on one. What an inspector cannot detect cannot be treated. What goes undetected grows.
FixMold inspectors arrive with a full suite of professional-grade detection equipment, calibrated to ANSI and AIHA standards, WiFi-integrated for real-time data logging and maintained under a cloud-based calibration tracking system that ensures every piece of gear performs accurately on every job. This is the same equipment standard the Katz family has applied across 35 years of mold assessment work in South Florida, New York and marine environments, refined into what we now call our Signature Inspection Device set, and deployed through services like Mold Inspection, Detection and Assessment for both residential and commercial properties.
No other mold company in South Florida brings this combination of tools, calibration standards and real-time data integration to a residential or commercial mold inspection.

FixMold focuses on eliminating mold from your environment.
But for some individuals, recovery doesn’t stop there.
Even after successful remediation, the body may continue responding to past exposure. In these cases, a structured, medically guided approach may be necessary to support full recovery.
Every instrument is calibrated to ANSI and AIHA standards on a documented schedule. Calibration records are maintained in our cloud-based management system and are available as part of our inspection documentation when required for legal, insurance or real estate transaction purposes. The independent certified laboratories that analyze our air and surface samples maintain their own accreditation independently of our inspection process. The results you receive reflect a complete, documented chain from sample collection through laboratory analysis.
Consumer mold test kits, typically a petri dish left open in a room for a period of time, collect spores that settle by gravity onto the collection medium. They do not measure airborne spore concentration. They do not identify species with the accuracy of microscopic laboratory analysis. They produce no outdoor baseline comparison. They provide no information about moisture conditions or hidden contamination. They are not operated or interpreted by a trained assessor. What they tell you is that mold spores exist in your home, which is true of every home on earth. They tell you nothing about whether the concentration, the species or the conditions in your property represent a problem.
The same device set is used across both. Commercial inspections involve larger numbers of air sampling points due to the scale of the property, additional zones of assessment for multi-floor or multi-tenant buildings and more extensive documentation requirements for the final report. The instruments, the calibration standards and the laboratory used are identical.
Your inspector reviews all findings with you before leaving the property. Your written report with all readings, thermal images, laboratory results and a plain-language explanation of what they mean is delivered promptly. If remediation is indicated, the same team handles it. You do not start over with a new company, a new assessment or a new set of unknowns.
