"Our attic developed mold after years of small roof leaks that we kept patching temporarily. LeakSafe Homes handled the mold remediation in our Calabasas home with incredible professionalism. They removed contaminated insulation, treated the wood framing, and helped us understand how ventilation contributed to the issue. Very knowledgeable company."

"All work was completed on time with exceptionally high-quality work. All workers were introduced to me, making me comfortable with strangers in my home. All workers wore masks and used all health recommendations. I was brought into every step of the process and the process was explained. The total cost was as estimated. The price was about half of the estimate of other contractors. I was very satisfied. I recommend this business."

"It went exceptionally well. Larry is the greatest. He worked very **** ** this project. His team that came to clean the property was very professional and friendly. I hope I never have another asbestos problem again, but if I did, or if someone I knew had one, I would definitely recommend Larry and All Clear again. Thanks Larry and Hector. This is a true statement and I stand by it. :-)"

"This is my first time leaving a review for a company as I've never felt the need to, but using Pacific Environmental I feel I should share with my home owners. My husband and I bought out first home which we love but a room had acoustic ceiling. I reach out to PEAS, which everyone in the office was very helpful and patient on guiding me through this experience. Their scheduling was amazing as I was dealing with Closing Escrow and moving my family in. Once they arrived, they informed me on the scope of work and what they would be doing and what to expect, this being my 8-year-old son room so I was a bit worried on hazardous material that was being removed and used. CONTAINMENT WAS AMAZING! I was so happy and felt so safe on how they kept the area and the protection they took to take care of my family and themselves. My kids thought the crew looked pretty cool too, haha. CLEANING WAS AMAZING! Work was conducted upstairs and they went the extra mile and cleaned everything they touched, I really appreciate that, as it again made me feel secure and safe. PEAS left a memorial memory our kids still talk about. I strongly recommend them and would use them again."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

The best way to measure moisture levels in drywall is with a moisture meter. Moisture meters feature small probes that you insert into drywall (similar to pushing a pin into the wall). Ideally, you'll take moisture readings at several locations on the wall to get a general idea of the moisture level.

Checking for mold yourself is crucial, as catching mold in the early stages is ideal. Mold can appear green, brown, black, blue, or yellow. It can smell musty and can feel like velvet, leather, or cotton. 

Most often, mold grows near water damage. It’s best to inspect these places for signs of mold growth:

  • Basement: Look in corners, windows, carpet, closets, and around appliances. 

  • Bathrooms: Check around sinks, ceilings, and around toilets. 

  • Kitchen: Inspect around the sink, behind the refrigerator, and behind trash can.

  • Attic: Look near the insulation and near intake and exhaust vents.

Black mold appears in areas with constant moisture and has a slightly fuzzy texture. It’ll have a primarily circular pattern. While it’s known to have a black color, it can also appear dark green, or dark brown, although a few types include orange or white flecks. Identifying black mold is important because people who inhale the spores could suffer respiratory issues or neurological problems. Black mold is a toxic material and requires a professional to remove it.

The microscopic asbestos fibers do not cause eye irritation, throat irritation, or lung irritation. If you are inhaling fibers, you will not know it. This lack of immediate symptoms is one of the reasons why asbestos is so dangerous. You cannot know for certain if you are inhaling fibers, which is why you must wear safety gear if you could have any chance of an exposure while working.

White mold is generally considered less harmful than black mold, which can be more toxic due to the mycotoxins it produces. However, white mold can still be harmful, particularly for individuals with mold allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions. Exposure can cause symptoms like nasal stuffiness, throat irritation, coughing, or skin irritation, and it can exacerbate existing health issues. Because any type of mold can pose health risks, all mold infestations should be treated seriously. Prompt remediation is necessary, and you should take proper precautions, such as wearing protective gear and using appropriate cleaning agents, when dealing with it.
