Arlington shares Fort Worth's humid subtropical climate but sits lower in the Trinity River watershed, making some areas more prone to flooding and persistent moisture issues around foundations.
Arlington's soil is a mix of Austin Chalk and Eagle Ford Clay, causing variable foundation behavior across the city. Homes near Lake Arlington sit on sandier soil with higher water tables, while northern areas face the same clay challenges as Fort Worth.
Given these conditions, Arlington homeowners who schedule regular ermi mold testing are better positioned to catch problems early and avoid expensive remediation down the road.
An Arlington homeowner in the Interlochen neighborhood called about water stains on a bedroom ceiling that appeared after a heavy spring thunderstorm. Our certified inspectors discovered that the real problem was not the roof but a condensation issue where the HVAC supply ductwork running through the unconditioned attic had developed micro-tears in the insulation wrap. Warm, humid attic air was condensing on the cold duct surfaces, dripping onto the ceiling drywall, and feeding a Cladosporium colony that had been growing undetected for an entire cooling season.
We discuss your concerns, the home's history, and any known moisture or health issues. For accurate results, we recommend avoiding vacuuming the collection areas for at least 5-7 days before sampling to allow representative dust accumulation.
Using a specialized Duststream collector or vacuum cassette with a defined collection template, the inspector collects dust from carpeted areas or hard floors in main living spaces. The 2-by-3-foot or 3-by-6-foot template ensures consistent sampling area across all tests.
Depending on your needs, samples may be collected from multiple rooms—bedrooms, living areas, and areas of concern. Multi-room sampling provides a more detailed picture of mold distribution throughout your home.
Dust samples are sealed in sterile containers with tamper-evident packaging and documented chain of custody forms. Proper handling is critical for DNA analysis accuracy.
An accredited laboratory uses Mold-Specific Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (MSQPCR) to identify and quantify DNA from all 36 ERMI panel species. This process takes approximately 5-7 business days.
Your ERMI score is calculated from Group 1 (water-damage indicators) minus Group 2 (common outdoor species). You receive a detailed report with individual species concentrations, your composite score, and interpretation guidance specific to your situation.
