"Shane was my first contact (via phone) and was very knowledgeable and went above & beyond to answer all my questions. I tend to have pretty good discernment, and I immediately sensed I was dealing with an honest, straightforward company. Shane offered me an appointment 2 days later that s fast! Awesome when you re concerned about mold! Ray came to our house (a several hour drive to the Redding area!), and was prompt & called ahead to be courteous. Total genuine and nice guy (especially bc he s a dog lover ;) He wasn t rushed at all, answered all our questions (we had a lot), and actually said he likes & welcomes questions! After we received our report & invoice, I THOUGHT I was messaging my husband, lol, but I texted Shane: Thumbs up! They did thorough testing, & the price was still what was initially quoted! I highly recommend these guys!!"

"I hired Walker's Home & Commercial Inspections because I was putting my older home on the market and wanted to know what repairs, if any, needed to be completed before selling. Mr. Walker pointed out several deficiencies. There was earth/wood contact below the kitchen window and some wiring that was done incorrectly. These items were corrected and the home is on the market. Thanks to the thorough inspection, a buyer will know the home was inspected and repairs done."

"While replacing our floors should have been an easy task, we were beyond bummed to learn that our old linoleum contained asbestos. Begrudgingly, I started calling around to get quotes on abatement and called Select Environmental on the recommendation of a friend of mine. Despite the fact that asbestos removal wasn't in my budget, I simply could not be more pleased to have found Blake and his team. From the outset, they were fast, timely, upfront, honest, and their pricing was fair. When an appointment was made for 8AM, my doorbell would ring at 7:59AM. His workers were efficient, meticulous, and courteous. By the end of our project, I almost longed to discover more asbestos so that I could use Blake and his team again. All kidding aside, I highly recommend Select Environmental and will use them again should the need arise."

"We called Silva’s Painting & Construction yesterday to reinforce two shelves that were sagging. They came and fixed them right away. Then we asked if they could construct additional shelves for our custom storage cabinets in our garage. They took measurements and a sample and constructed them in a very short amount of time. Silva’s and sons, Giovanni and Alex along with their amazing father, Sergio, have been wonderful in helping us with our move to another neighborhood and all the adjustments needed. Highly recommend and endorse this business."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Toxic black mold on wood appears as dark green or black patches. It often has a slimy or wet texture and may spread across the surface in a spotty pattern. The affected wood might appear discolored, soft, and damp. Identifying black mold early is crucial because it can cause severe health problems when its spores are released into the air. Prompt remediation is necessary to prevent further damage and health risks.

Inhaling smoke from burnt food can be harmful to your health. Smoke and strong odors released when food burns can cause respiratory distress, especially for people with health conditions like asthma or for pregnant people. Even for those without such sensitivities, burnt food smoke can cause lung inflammation and irritation when inhaled.

If you see black stuff under your vinyl flooring, it’s probably mold. There is a chance it could just be dirt, dried-out adhesive, or slight water damage, but some of those are causes for mold growth, so you should remove it immediately anyway. In some older homes, it could be black mastic asbestos. If you think it could be this–you guessed it–call a pro.

Neglecting mold growth on wood can result in various issues that deteriorate its appearance and jeopardize its structural stability. The mold's ability to multiply and expand can disintegrate the fibers of the wood, weakening it further. In addition, the allergenic spores and mycotoxins released by mold can pose health hazards through inhalation or contact. Ignoring the mold's presence allows it to thrive, increasing the likelihood of spreading to other surfaces and requiring extensive and expensive measures to control in the future. Addressing mold on wood promptly is crucial to preserving its condition and safeguarding the health of those around it.

Eliminating mold from wood permanently poses a challenge as the mold spores have the ability to deeply penetrate the porous wood surface. While surface mold can be effectively eradicated with proper cleaning and preventative measures, it's difficult to guarantee its non-recurrence under favorable conditions. To prevent mold from reappearing, it is important to identify and resolve the root cause of the moisture that triggered mold growth initially.

Ensuring appropriate ventilation and a dry environment, or consider applying protective finishes such as sealant, varnish, or paint to prevent future moisture penetration and mold growth. Consistently inspect and maintain the area to keep the wood free from mold in the long term.
