The young lady I spoke to on the phone was extremely kind and informative. Any question I had she could answer. She represents the company extremely well! We need more people like her.

Very disappointed with how 5 micron left my walls and building agree inspection Usually a company would take carpet up in the corner of the room they did it right in the middle 47 cuts and slashes Gave them a chance to make repairs - they refused Be careful when using them and always have someone who knows what they are doing onsite Refused to fix any of it Costing me thousands- they said the building was going to be completely renovated - reason for sloppy job but I never told them that

5 microns was so easy to work with. Absolutely loved Carole! She was so through and educating, a true pleasure to work. I was happy to give them a call and request her to come back for mold clearance.

On time smart great explanations. These folks know their stuff. Kind and don't make you feel stupid. General inspector and real estate agent very impressed as well. Can't go wrong with these guys. Bit expensive but you get what you pay for here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had some concerns for mold in my office after gone through some water damage a year back, and I contacted 5 microns, and they came in the following day and ran all the necessary tests. A couple days later they emailed my results with the breakdown of everything I needed to know and how to take care of my concerns! Pascal was also very professional! Highly recommend!

Pascal was very professional and attentive to our needs. He was also empathetic to our situation. He took quite a bit of time explaining things to us. The report is very detailed and professional too. Thanks 5 Microns

Who This Is For

Who Should Consider Air Quality Testing in Auburn?

  • Homeowners noticing persistent odors or moisture issues
  • Buyers seeking documentation before closing
  • Landlords responding to tenant complaints
  • Property managers handling environmental concerns
  • Businesses evaluating indoor air conditions
  • Post-remediation verification after mold cleanup

If you need clear, defensible results backed by laboratory analysis, professional air quality testing is the right step.

Why IAQ Testing Matters in Auburn

Why Auburn Properties May Require Indoor Air Quality Testing

Auburn homes and buildings experience year-round moisture exposure due to Western Washington’s climate. Crawlspaces, basements, older ventilation systems, and past plumbing or roof leaks can all contribute to indoor air concerns.

In addition, Auburn’s mix of residential neighborhoods and light industrial areas can sometimes contribute to odor or VOC-related concerns in enclosed environments.

What We Test For

Our Air Quality Testing Services in Auburn Include:

  • Mold air sampling (indoor vs. outdoor comparison when appropriate)
  • VOC testing (including chemical and solvent-related odors)
  • Indoor environmental quality assessments
  • Post-remediation verification testing
  • Surface sampling when visible growth is present

If chemical odors are suspected, advanced VOC testing methods may be recommended depending on the situation.

Our Testing Process

What to Expect

1. Initial Consultation

We discuss your concerns, timeline, and the purpose of testing (real estate, health concerns, documentation, etc.).

2. On-Site Assessment

We perform a visual inspection of accessible areas and identify appropriate sampling locations.

3. Air and/or Surface Sampling

Sampling is conducted using calibrated equipment and proper chain-of-custody procedures.

4. Laboratory Analysis

Samples are analyzed by an accredited laboratory.

5. Clear Written Report

You receive a documented report summarizing findings and recommended next steps.

Our role is to provide independent testing and documentation — not remediation services — which helps eliminate conflicts of interest.
