"I started working with the Clifton organization on some exterior wood repair on my 4 plex in Oxnard. I live out-of-town so I needed to handle this repair remotely. They provided a detailed quote based on visual inspections. Once they started, additional wood damage was discovered. They provided detailed pictures to accompany the supplemental quotes. This was invaluable to help me in understanding the scope of the work. I approved all additional work. They did an excellent job. They replaced wood siding, wood railings, garage door wood framing and many places that needed stucco repair. After this was completed, I asked if they could do some repairs to two bathroom vanities, kitchen cabinets, and the kitchen counter top in one of the units. It turned out they were not repairable and again they provided detailed pictures supporting the need to replace them. Once more, I approved. They selected the replacements based on my requirements. They painted the wood, replaced all the plumbing and repaired the flooring. They did an excellent job. The end result was amazing. I would recommend Clifton to anyone. Robert"

Every detail, from the tile work to the lighting, was beautifully done. They communicated well throughout, keeping us informed at every step, and the end result was truly a spa-like bathroom we can enjoy daily. We’d love to work with them again!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Yes, mold can build up in a dehumidifier if not properly emptied and clean. Clean it every few weeks by removing dirty water, scrubbing with a mild dish soap, and allowing it to fully dry before reassembling. 

If the smell is closer to mildew or rotten eggs, the issue is probably mold or bacteria buildup in the machine or its drainage system. Clean your washing machine thoroughly, paying close attention to the rubber door gasket, as it can harbor odor-causing residue. Some machines have lint or debris filters that should also be checked and cleaned according to the user manual's instructions. Be sure to leave the machine's door or lid open after each use, as this allows for better air circulation and helps prevent mold growth.

The cost for mold remediation typically ranges from $1,125 to $3,350, with a national average of around $2,400. The final price depends on various factors, including the location and square footage of the affected area, the type of mold, and local labor costs.

Additional factors that influence the total cost include:

  • Extent of Damage: The overall price can increase significantly if extensive repairs are needed after mold removal, such as replacing large sections of drywall. Removing mold from a small area of drywall might cost between $300 and $825, but full wall replacement is more expensive.

  • Health Risks: The cost is also justified by the health risks associated with toxic mold, which can cause respiratory distress, act as carcinogens, or even damage the nervous system.

  • Comprehensive Service: Remediation involves not only removing the mold but also addressing the moisture issues that caused it to prevent future growth.

  • Testing and Air Quality: The need for safety testing and measures to improve indoor air quality can also add to the cost.

For an accurate estimate, it is best to consult a mold removal specialist who can assess the specifics of your situation.

Some of the signs that could mean your water is contaminated, such as cloudiness or bubbliness, could also be non-problems that don’t affect your water’s potability. However, if your water smells or tastes strange, it’s a good idea to stop drinking it and test it immediately. If your well water is contaminated, the best way to discover that is to test it.

Mildew starts as a tiny spot, but if left untreated, it can severely damage your home as well as cause life-threatening health issues. Mildew eats away materials like wood and drywall and if left untreated can destroy entire walls and buildings. Mold sickness is almost a guarantee if you don’t tackle this problem as soon as it rears its head.
