Independent clearance testing
Post-Remediation Verification in Fort Myers, FL
Independent assessment, written up so you can act on it.
Proof the Job Was Actually Finished
Remediation is finished when an independent test says it is finished, not when the contractor packs up.
Post-remediation verification checks that the work did what it was supposed to do. We inspect the containment area, confirm the moisture source is fixed, and test the air before the plastic comes down. If it passes, you have documentation. If it does not, you find out while the contractor is still on the hook.
We had no hand in the removal, which is the entire point. Call (239) 555-0142.
What Verification Covers
Visual clearance
The work area checked for remaining growth, dust and debris.
Moisture confirmation
Readings to prove the source was fixed, not just the growth removed.
Air clearance sampling
Inside containment against an outdoor control, analysed by an accredited lab.
Written clearance report
The document your contractor, insurer or buyer will ask for.
What Clearance Testing Costs
Cost follows the size of the containment area and the number of samples needed to clear it. A single bathroom clears with fewer samples than a whole floor.
Why Independence Matters Here
We did not do the removal
A contractor clearing their own work is marking their own homework. Florida keeps the roles separate for that reason.
Accredited lab analysis
Clearance samples go to an independent laboratory.
Documentation that stands up
Written for insurers, buyers and property managers who need proof rather than assurance.
Fast turnaround
Containment is expensive to leave standing. We work to your contractor's schedule.

Common Questions
Who books the clearance test, me or my contractor?
Either. Many contractors arrange it as part of the job. Booking it yourself costs the same and removes any question about who chose the tester.
What happens if it fails?
The report says what is still present and where. The contractor returns to finish, and we retest. Failing before containment comes down is far cheaper than finding out afterwards.
Can the remediation company do their own clearance test?
Florida licensing separates assessment from remediation, and a company cannot assess a structure it remediated within the previous twelve months. That separation is what makes a clearance report worth having.
How soon after the work can you test?
Once the area has dried and containment is still up. Your contractor will tell us when it is ready, and we usually attend within a day or two.
