"Noah scheduled an estimator to come to my house 30 minutes after my phone call. Moises came and gave me a reasonable price. He was prompt and courteous. The next day Hiram and Orge came to do the work. They were prompt and friendly. They did an excellent job removing the mold. Brian called me to keep me appraised of what they did and how long they will be leaving the dehumidifier and other drying equipment in the garage. This company is prompt, professional, and courteous and did an excellent job. I would definitely use them again."

"Quick to respond, thorough, and reasonably priced. They acted conservatively to minimize costs - when other water remediation companies wanted to rip out drywall and counters and have them replaced, they opted to dry out as much of the affected area as possible with minimal damage. In the end, all we had to do after they dried and treated the area was fix our plumbing and replace the flooring for the area."

"The two gentlemen from Risk Free Serv were knowledgeable and professional. They worked well together and took care of my home as if it were their own. They found mold behind the bathroom vanity and kept me informed of the process as they removed the mold, vanity, and drywall. I appreciated that they didn't try to charge me for unnecessary services as some other companies did."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, mold can grow on virtually any porous material, including plaster, and can be a pain to get rid of. If you see any signs of mold or mildew growth, call a local mold inspection company to take a look—mold is a health hazard and can spread quickly to other parts of your home.

While the air inside your home should have some moisture—the ideal humidity level is between 30% and 50%—too much moisture can lead to issues. Some ways to tell if there’s too much moisture in your home include condensation inside your windows, mildew growth in the bathroom or mold on surfaces, peeling paint, or an uptick in allergy symptoms.

Water damage doesn’t always cause mold and wood rot, but it can. Both mold and wood rot require moisture in the wood to form, so water damage that continues to leave water or moisture behind can lead to both issues. Water damage and mold often go hand-in-hand, but you can prevent mold growth after water damage by addressing the source of moisture and drying out the area quickly. The same goes for wood rot. The longer you let water damage go, the higher the risk of mold and rot.

Since most mushrooms are beneficial for your grass, and otherwise harmless, it’s not a good idea to kill them with fungicide. If you suspect you have a poisonous type of mushroom in your grass, you should consult a professional concerning mitigation. There are lots of types of mushrooms and most are perfectly safe.
