A Mold Test at a Folly Beach Vacation Rental

On September 29, 2025, Charleston Mold Testing tested a vacation rental on East Arctic Avenue in Folly Beach, South Carolina. We tested rooms on both floors, plus outside.

Areas tested

Upstairs living room and kitchen
Downstairs bunk room
Front bedroom
Back bedroom
Outside

Every test ends with a post-test summary like this one. We only test, so when results come back normal, the summary says so: no remediation is required.

What the report found

Mold levels: Normal in the tested areas
Indoor air quality: Good
Mold remediation: Not required

How to read the counts

Raw count (left column of the report): Below 5, which equals zero
Acceptable level (center column of the report): 400 count/m³ or lower

These results apply to the areas tested on that date. Results at another property may differ.
