AEROLYSE ENVIRONMENTAL

Sampling materials sent to you

Nationwide postal mould & bacteria testing

We send the materials and instructions. You collect suitable surface samples and return them to Aerolyse. We analyse them and send your results.

Surface mould and bacterial analysis: £100 per sample. Test result included.

Professional analysis without a separate testing visit

For homeowners, tenants, landlords and property professionals who need analysis of a suitable surface sample without arranging an Aerolyse site visit.

We agree the test first. The sampling materials, collection method, return arrangements and total cost must be confirmed before you take or send a sample.

See the four steps

Your test result is included

  • Sample details and sampling location
  • The result of the agreed analysis
  • Communication or documentation of the result

No extra fee is required to receive your sample result. Detailed written interpretive reports are available separately for an additional charge. A sample result is not a whole-property survey.

For properties and property professionals

Homes and managed properties

Homeowners, tenants, landlords, property managers and housing providers can use postal testing for a defined mould or contamination concern. We recommend the appropriate analysis.

Who we work with

Contractors and insurers

Contractors, surveyors, remediation firms and insurers can submit samples for an investigation, remediation record or handover. Agree references and reporting needs before collection.

Professional testing

Before you collect or return a sample

Use the agreed method

Contact Aerolyse first. Use the specified materials and follow the instructions supplied for the selected test. Record the requested property and sample-location details so the findings can be linked to the right place.

If a sample is unsuitable or information is missing, we will discuss the next step. Unplanned samples may not be suitable for analysis.

Confirm the return arrangements

Use the agreed packaging, labelling and return instructions. Send samples only to the return address confirmed directly by Aerolyse.

Tell us about contamination concerns before collecting anything. Contact us if you are unsure whether the area is suitable to sample yourself.

Same-day surface analysis and results

We analyse returned surface samples and send their results on the day we receive them, using your preferred contact method.

Surface sample analysis typically takes under an hour. Analysis time excludes postage.

All testing prices

What a sample cannot tell you

Mould analysis does not identify mould species. Results relate to the submitted sample and sampling location and should be considered alongside the wider property conditions. It is not a whole-building inspection, a medical diagnosis or a guarantee that a property is safe. A postal result does not include an Aerolyse property inspection.

Testing scope and limitations

Your result is included

Your sample-analysis price includes analysis and the result for the submitted surface sample. No extra fee is required to receive the result.

If you require a detailed written report incorporating property history, sampling context and professional interpretation, this can be arranged separately for an additional charge. Postal testing is not a whole-property survey.
