Concerned about what you're breathing at home? A professional air quality test measures what's in your indoor air and whether it's affecting your health.
“We had a very significant mold problem, and Courtney is very knowledgeable, answered all our questions, was very thorough, and had excellent follow up. The fogging was very effective given that our kids had no more symptoms following the treatment. We had this done following a more invasive mold remediation as a way to remove any spores in the areas and on the surfaces that couldn’t effectively be covered with other methods. She definitely went the extra mile. Highly recommend!!”
“I would highly recommend Pure Maintenance especially Courtney. I contacted Pure Maintenance because we were seeing mold. We found out that we had mold and spores in other areas of our home and our air quality was bad. Courtney came in and was VERY VERY through and did a wonderful job. We have no more mold and our air quality is through the roof awesome. No more daily headaches and coughing. Thank you Courtney for everything you did. We greatly appreciate you.”
“Our experience with Pure Maintenance exceeded my expectations. Courtney’s work in our home was above and beyond. She not only eradicated the mold in our carpet that we knew about but also in spots she found during her inspection and treatment. Highly recommend!”
“Courtney was phenomenal! She was thorough and thoughtful. Our experience with Pure Maintenance was the best we have ever had with a home maintenance business. We will continue to use and recommend their services for mold inspection and remediation!”
“The team at Pure Maintenance goes above and beyond throughout the process. Their communication, follow-up, and service are exceptional. Courtney and Robin and extremely thorough in their diagnosis and service. I love that they provide detailed corrective measure recommendations to help protect homes from future moisture intrusions and provide peace of mind.”
“Had a vapor mold treatment. Courtney and Robin were awesome! Very thorough, great communication. The house feels great!”
“Courtney and team saved the day for my family. They were courteous and very informative with all of the processes of our remediation. I highly recommend this team if you need help.”
“While getting the house ready to sell, we came across several spots of mold in the basement. I called two other remediation companies, but they were either too busy or didn’t return my call. I contacted Pure Maintenance and they were out within 2 days. They thoroughly assessed the entire house, looking for all possible sources, not just the basement. The whole-house vapor treatment was also thorough, resulting in a cleaner, fresher, healthier-smelling house. Their process and follow-up testing, along with their warranty, gives me peace of mind while we go through the selling process. Courtney and Robin were also great to work with. They communicated with me regularly, answering all my questions in a timely manner. I appreciated their experience and expertise as they helped me to navigate this very stressful process.”
Something's off in your home and you can feel it. Maybe it's congestion that won't quit, headaches that hit hardest after a long day inside, or a kid whose asthma keeps sliding backward for no reason that makes sense. Maybe your doctor has started asking about the house itself. You can't see what you're breathing, which makes this kind of problem almost impossible to fix on your own. We test your indoor air so you know what's actually in it, and you can stop guessing about what's making everyone feel worse.
If someone in the house has respiratory problems that don't respond to medication, allergies that flare the second you walk through the door, or sinus pressure that never really clears, your air is a reasonable place to look. Waiting rarely helps. The source keeps releasing spores every day you put it off. Same story for new parents setting up a nursery, anyone with a compromised immune system, and people managing asthma or COPD who want a baseline while things are stable.
Non-health reasons count too. You just bought the house. You finished a renovation that opened up walls. There's a musty smell in the basement you can't track down. Madison makes all of this more likely than people think. Winters push warm indoor air into cold wall cavities where it condenses against the framing, ice dams force meltwater back up under shingles into attic decking, and then spring snowmelt sits against foundation walls for weeks. Summers aren't much kinder. Dew points in the 70s through stretches of July and August, full basements on heavy clay, and plenty of homes within a few blocks of Mendota or Monona where the water table is already pushing up. Biological growth inside walls and under floors is common around here, and it almost always shows up in the air long before it shows up anywhere you can see.
We use Air-O-Cell cassettes, the standard tool in the indoor air quality industry. The cassette pulls a measured volume of air across a collection surface and traps mold spores, fragments, and other biological particles. We sample the rooms where you spend the most time or where symptoms feel worst, plus an outdoor sample for a baseline. Everything goes to an independent certified lab for microscope analysis. The lab identifies the mold by type and counts the spores, so you get real numbers broken down by room. Your report shows which areas are elevated and which ones are fine. Most tests take about an hour on site, and lab results come back within a few business days. This is lab data, not a reading off a thirty-dollar meter from Amazon, and you can hand it straight to your doctor or insurance company if you need to.
What you pay depends on how many rooms you want sampled. A focused test covering one or two problem areas plus an outdoor control is the cheapest option. A whole-home test that includes every bedroom, the main living spaces, the basement, and the attic costs more because there are more lab analyses to run. You'll get the full price before we collect a single sample, and that price is the price. No surprise fees, no add-ons at the end.
We test to find out what's in your air, not to sell you remediation you don't need. If the results come back normal, we tell you so, and you walk away with paperwork to prove it. If they come back elevated, we explain the numbers in plain language and walk you through your options, including our vapor process when it's time to deal with the source. We're local. We know Madison basements, what January does to an under-insulated attic, what August humidity does to a sealed-up house, and where mold tends to turn up in homes around here. Same-day appointments are usually available when you call in the morning, and every test is backed by an independent certified lab.
