Remediation isn't finished until independent lab results confirm it worked. Clearance testing is the proof that your home is actually clean.

“Wow, What a difference in the air quality. We bought our house a few years ago and had mold and we didn't know what to do about it. I kept trying different things and nothing seemed to work. Finally, I got a hold of Pure maintenance figuring why not I've tried everything else. She explained the mold differently than anybody else had before...that It travels through the air and that we had to get rid of the source of the problem first. She found the source and took some mold readings which were high. We followed her instructions on how to fix where the water was coming in, she came and treated our home. It took a bit on our part but it was woth it because the problem went away after her treatment. Not like anything we tried before, which never worked. It's so different in here. No more mold smell every time I walk into the house. I have new hardwood floors that I can now smell them. And we just feel so much better, as far as our health. We couldn't be more appreciative. I wish we were called Pure Maintenance to begin with. Thanks Courtney! Mary”
“We had a freezer disaster at home, and hundreds of pounds of pork, beef and shrimp have been rotting for days while we were gone. The smell was absolutely sickening and unbearable. Nothing got rid of it. I tore up the carpet, bleached the subfloor, used baking powder, ran fans for days, ran an ozone generator for hours on multiple occasions, nothing made a difference. Courtney came over with her equipment, fogged the room, and the very next day the smell was completely gone. Weeks later, the room smells fresher than before the incident. Thank you!!!!”
“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.”
You paid to have mold taken care of. The crew's gone, and you're standing in your living room wondering whether any of it actually worked. A wall that looks clean proves nothing, because spores drift through the air and settle in places nobody thought to open up. Pure Maintenance Wisconsin runs independent clearance testing that tells you, in hard lab numbers, whether your Madison home is where it needs to be, and we can usually have a technician out collecting samples within a day or two of your call.

Every professional mold job should end with a clearance test. If the contractor you hired didn't include one, or waved you off when you asked about it, that's worth paying attention to. A few situations make testing urgent rather than optional. Insurance adjusters typically won't close a mold claim until you can hand them lab paperwork showing the work passed. Real estate deals where mold turned up on disclosure usually stall until a buyer sees those same results. Landlords and property managers who skip testing leave themselves open to tenant claims later. And if weeks have gone by since the remediation and you still catch a musty whiff in the hallway, or your sinuses haven't settled down, that's your own body flagging something the last crew may have missed. Waiting costs you more than testing does.

We use the same Air-O-Cell cassette method the pros use for pre-treatment sampling. A technician pulls air from the rooms that were treated, a couple of unaffected living spaces for context, and an outdoor sample to set the day's baseline. That outdoor number matters more in Madison than people realize. Lake humidity off Mendota and Monona pushes outdoor spore counts up through summer, and a sealed-tight Wisconsin house in January reads very different from the same house in July. Every cassette ships to an accredited third-party lab for microscopic analysis, where the techs count spores by genus and compare your indoor numbers against the outdoor control. That comparison is the pass standard: indoor should come back lower than outdoor. You get the full lab report, not a tidied-up summary. On-site sampling usually wraps in about an hour, and lab results come back within three to five business days. When we're testing our own vapor treatments, we run the exact same protocol. We'd rather the lab prove the work than grade ourselves on a clipboard.
Pricing comes down to how many samples we pull, which depends on the size of the property and how many rooms were treated. A basement-only job in an older bungalow on the near east side takes fewer samples than a whole-house treatment on a newer build out toward Middleton or Sun Prairie. We quote the full cost before anybody opens a cassette, and what we quote is what you pay. No surprise line items after the fact. If Pure Maintenance Wisconsin handled your original remediation with our vapor treatment, clearance testing is already part of the package. If another company did the work, we run it as a standalone service with results that answer only to you.
Pure Maintenance Wisconsin is a local outfit, and our clearance testing runs through an accredited third-party lab. You see the actual report the lab produces. When we test after our own vapor treatments, our guarantee is on the line: if indoor levels don't come in below outdoor, we come back and retreat at no charge. When we test after another company's work, we have no stake in the outcome, so we tell you exactly what the lab found. Same-day sample collection is usually available across the Madison metro, and we've spent enough time in Dane County basements and attics to know what ice dam leaks and August humidity tend to leave behind.
If you had mold treated and want proof the job's actually finished, or you're not sure the crew who did the work really got it all, call Pure Maintenance Wisconsin at 608-555-0199. We'll get samples pulled fast and put real lab numbers in your hands so you can stop guessing.
