Why this bundle

Water damage brings two problems at once: what the water carried in, and the mold that grows in the days after. Testing covers both so nothing is missed.

What’s inside

What each test measures, and what to look for

Water

What we measure. A mail-in tap water kit collects a sample from your own faucet, and a certified lab checks it for contaminants like lead, copper, nitrate, and common disinfection byproducts.

What to look for. The EPA action level for lead in water is 15 ppb, and the CDC says there is no safe level of lead exposure for children. Utility reports describe water at the treatment plant, not the lead that can dissolve from household pipes on the way to your tap.

Soil

What we measure. A soil kit collects samples from areas like garden beds, play areas, and entry paths, and a lab measures heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, and cadmium.

What to look for. In 2024 the EPA lowered its residential soil-lead screening level to 200 ppm. Children who play outside and anyone who gardens have the most direct contact with yard soil.

Mold

What we measure. A mold kit collects an air or surface sample that a lab uses to identify the types of mold present and their relative levels in a room.

What to look for. The EPA does not set a numeric mold limit, and moisture control is the real fix. Any visible mold or a persistent musty smell is worth addressing; a kit tells you what’s growing and helps you focus the cleanup.

Common questions

How fast does mold start after water damage?
The EPA advises drying wet materials within 24 to 48 hours, because mold can begin to grow in that window. A mold kit checks whether growth has already started.
Why test soil after a spill or flood?
Floodwater and spills can deposit metals and chemicals into yard soil. A soil kit measures what settled where children and gardeners have contact.
