"Dave was super helpful and steered me toward the real solution I needed -- not testing but direct remediation of a leaking window and wall. His experience really helped get the job done and to calm my nerves after I discovered the leak!"

"For anyone looking for a reliable and honest company- I highly recommend Pacific Pure Maintenance. After having exposure to TOXIC mold in my home, I had Pacific Pure Maintenance quote the project for mold remediation. My insurance company however, had me go with another company that cut and removed the mold without doing any kind of treating to the air. Months later I was still ill and contacted Pacific Pure Maintenance and they were very knowledgeable and helpful. They removed the toxins /air spores that were continuing to make me sick. (Something that other companies did not do NOR recommend). At the time, I knew NOTHING about mold exposure and I was looking to the experts for advise and none of the other mold removal companies were as helpful as Pacific Pure Maintenance. I am forever grateful to this company for doing what other companies didnt and going above and beyond."

Thank you so much for the experience."

"They were quick to respond and came the same day as requested as we were urgently trying to assess a mold situation in our new home. The testing was comprehensive and I really appreciated being able to observe and discuss the situation with a professional while he gathered samples. However, the service felt incomplete when I received the test results with somewhat alarming news and no information about how to proceed. I wish I could have had a follow up consultation to discuss the results instead of trying to interpret them myself online. It took 3-4 more days to receive what appeared to be general remediation advice, and I was not able to get specific input for our home. If you are simply looking for someone to test your home and give you lab results, these guys will do this well, however if you are looking for someone to help solve a mold problem in your home, this is only a very small first step."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

The primary difference is that black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) is considered toxic and more dangerous than regular mold. It can produce harmful chemicals called mycotoxins, which may lead to severe health issues like respiratory problems, skin irritation, headaches, and other long-term complications. While regular mold is rarely toxic, it can still cause allergic reactions and respiratory irritation. Visually, black mold often appears dark—green, gray, brown, or black—with a fuzzy texture, whereas regular mold can be almost any color. Black mold is less common and typically grows in areas with severe water damage. Regardless of the type, you should not ignore any mold infestation in your home.

If you notice increased energy bills, poor airflow, or frequent HVAC system issues, a professional assessment is advisable. Technicians can identify duct leaks or inefficiencies that require updating or maintenance.

Condensation in your dryer can create a dangerous situation. It can cause lint to clog up the venting components of the system. If you have a gas-powered dryer, excessive lint buildup can create the potential for carbon dioxide buildup within your home. Clogged vent systems can also be a severe fire hazard. 

Mold in your air conditioner isn't a good thing, as it can be harmful to your health. If the mold travels through the ductwork or is blown out of the A/C, you and your family can inhale mold spores and develop respiratory illnesses and other problems. Preventing mold from growing in the air conditioner will help protect your health.

Although mildew is less harmful than mold, that doesn’t mean it’s safe. Breathing in even small amounts of mildew can cause serious health complications, especially in those with weakened immune systems. If you find any mildew in your home and can’t completely remove it easily (and there are elderly or sick people living there) you should call a professional right away.
