These guys were great! I called, and Ethan got us on the schedule within 2 days! I have had mold issues in the past so buying a new home, even though it was a new build, a mold inspection was a must for me. They did a…

The tech was very knowledgeable. Checked the building for moisture and went above and beyond to put my mind at ease that I had no on going water problems.
Mold testing in Manor requires a working understanding of how the local geography, building stock, and climate interact. Manor is part of Travis County in the Austin metro, with neighborhoods like ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, Presidential Glen, Carriage Hills, Stonewater, Lagos representing a mix of housing eras and construction methods. Manor shares Austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°F+ summers, and the famous 'Flash Flood Alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours, and with homes averaging 12 years in age, many Manor properties harbor airborne contaminants that go unnoticed without laboratory-grade testing.
Through our team, Manor homeowners gain access to certified inspectors who deploy Bio-Pump Plus sampling technology and AIHA-accredited lab analysis. Situated 12 miles from Austin, your Manor property faces specific environmental exposures -- from blackland prairie clay soils that shrink and swell with rainfall, cracking slab foundations and pulling moisture into wall cavities to seasonal allergen spikes -- that our inspectors are trained to identify and document.
With homes averaging 12 years in age, Manor properties are particularly vulnerable to indoor air contamination. Manor shares Austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°F+ summers, and the famous 'Flash Flood Alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours, creating a persistent cycle of moisture infiltration that feeds mold colonies hidden behind walls, under flooring, and inside HVAC ductwork. The result is elevated spore counts that standard home inspections simply cannot detect.
Environmental challenges specific to Manor properties include:
Our inspectors routinely encounter these issues in Manor homes:
The AIHA-accredited lab analysis performed on every Manor air sample reveals the full spectrum of what you're breathing. With homes averaging 12 years in age and manor shares austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°f+ summers, and the famous 'flash flood alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours, these contaminants are frequently found at elevated levels:
Over 50 mold genera including Aspergillus, Penicillium, Stachybotrys, and Cladosporium. Manor's housing stock -- averaging 12 years in age -- creates environments where slab cracks from blackland clay movement allowing capillary moisture into baseboards, drywall, and flooring drives elevated spore concentrations.
Pet dander, dust mite allergens, pollen particles, and insect debris that accumulate in Manor homes. With manor shares austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°f+ summers, and the famous 'flash flood alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours, these particulates circulate continuously through HVAC systems serving 18,000+ residents.
Gaseous compounds produced by active mold colonies that create musty, earthy odors. In Manor, where manor sits east of the balcones escarpment in the blackland prairie belt, where deep expansive clay soils dominate, MVOCs often signal concealed mold growth behind finished surfaces that visual inspections miss entirely.
Manor sits east of the Balcones Escarpment in the Blackland Prairie belt, where deep expansive clay soils dominate. For Manor homeowners, this means moisture can enter the home through pathways invisible to the naked eye. Air quality testing is often the only way to detect the mold colonies that develop in these concealed moisture zones.

Every Manor air quality assessment follows a structured protocol that ensures scientific accuracy. Here's how the certified inspectors evaluate your home's indoor air:
Before arriving at your Manor property, our inspectors review your specific concerns -- whether that involves persistent odors, respiratory symptoms, recent water damage, or a pending real estate transaction. Knowing that Manor homes averaging 12 years in age face distinct challenges, they tailor a sampling plan to your property's construction era and layout.
An outdoor control sample captures the natural spore levels in your Manor neighborhood, just 12 miles from Austin. Manor shares Austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°F+ summers, and the famous 'Flash Flood Alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours. The AIHA-accredited lab uses this outdoor reading as a benchmark to determine whether indoor concentrations are abnormally elevated.
Using calibrated Bio-Pump Plus units fitted with Air-O-Cell cassettes, our inspectors collect precisely timed air samples from bedrooms, living spaces, kitchens, bathrooms, and any rooms where you have noticed symptoms or moisture issues. In Manor, common focus areas include spaces affected by blackland prairie clay soils that shrink and swell with rainfall, cracking slab foundations and pulling moisture into wall cavities.
Separate samples taken at supply registers and return vents reveal whether your heating and cooling system is circulating mold spores from one area of the home to another. With Manor's climate demanding heavy HVAC usage year-round, ductwork contamination is a frequently overlooked pathway in local properties.
Every sample is labeled with precise location data, sealed in tamper-evident packaging, and shipped to an AIHA-accredited laboratory. Technicians classify mold genera and calculate spore concentrations per cubic meter of air, with results typically available within 1-3 business days.
Your comprehensive written report includes spore counts, species identification, indoor-versus-outdoor comparisons, health risk context, and actionable remediation guidance when elevated levels are found. For Manor properties, the report addresses local environmental factors like manor sits east of the balcones escarpment in the blackland prairie belt, where deep expansive clay soils dominate and their impact on your home's air quality.
Comprehensive Assessment: $600 -- Your Manor air quality inspection covers 2 AIHA-accredited air samples, an outdoor control reading, complete moisture evaluation, and a detailed written report. For properties exceeding 2,500 sq ft, a modest $0.10/sq ft surcharge applies.
Clearance Verification: $600 -- After remediation, this follow-up test with 2 air samples confirms that spore levels in your Manor home have returned to safe ranges.

For the most accurate results in your Manor home, keep all windows and exterior doors closed for 12-24 hours before the appointment. Run your HVAC system on its normal cycle so samples reflect typical airflow conditions. Avoid vacuuming, dusting, or running air purifiers on the day of testing, as these activities temporarily alter spore counts. Manor shares Austin's humid subtropical climate with roughly 34 inches of rain a year, blistering 100°F+ summers, and the famous 'Flash Flood Alley' pattern of intense convective storms that can dump several inches in hours, so maintaining your usual indoor temperature helps the inspectors capture representative readings.
