Previously A+ Cleaning & Restoration, Defender Water & Mold Restoration is owned by Kevin Ricke and Tra Griffin. Defender is the #1 Authority in water/mold remediation services, has completed over 8,500 projects/inspections, and is a veteran owned and operated company. Kevin Ricke is a Vietnam Vet (Navy) and has been in the restoration industry for over 45 years. He's owned/operated all types of home service businesses ranging from carpet cleaning to plumbing services. To say Kevin is an expert is an understatement; there's nobody in the state of Alabama that has his knowledge when it comes to water/mold restoration. Tra Griffin served in the Marine Corps Infantry with two combat deployments to Iraq. In the civilian world, Tra spent time running operations for an INC 5000 franchise as well as overseeing operations, maintenance and renovations for a nation-wide SFR Property Management Company.

"This business was prompt, efficient and knew just what to do and how to do it. Will definitely call Cheaha Home Solutions again!"

When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it?s mold in your home, school, place of work or apartment there are many factors to consider. Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? Do you just want to test to be sure your environment is safe? Do you need Post Mold Remediation Testing to ensure a good job was done? These and other factors are questions which need to be answered before any environmental testing starts. It?s important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages & property damages require different environmental tests to prove your case in court. Tests that a common or inexperienced mold inspector would not typically use or know to use.

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

In most cases, it's not worth the risk of buying a home with mold. You should carefully weigh the pros and cons before making a decision—and there are far more drawbacks than benefits. For one, buying a house with mold opens you up to health risks since mold can cause respiratory and allergic reactions. If the mold is widespread throughout the home, the cost to completely remove it, make necessary repairs, and prevent it from returning is often not worth the cost savings of buying a mold-infested home for a bargain.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

No—there are key things that help you determine if it’s mold versus mildew. Mildew is a specific type of mold. Both can trigger allergies, asthma, and respiratory symptoms, though mold is typically more severe than mildew.

The CDC does not consider diatomaceous earth toxic to humans or animals, though it can cause skin, eye, and lung irritation when handled without PPE. It's important to note that non-food-grade diatomaceous earth can be toxic when handled or consumed, so homeowners should only purchase the food-grade option.
