"Cal Coast communication through the whole process was what I needed. I didnâ t know the questions I should ask. I was scared and nervous. Iâ ve never been through this before. Cal Coast took care of everything and problem solved for me throughout the whole process. Not only did he do the water mitigation and mold removal, I hired him to do the put back as well. Everything was done on time. I highly recommend them."

"First, we decided to have Hafa Adai perform pest control services because they answered our request in a timely manner and had a very competitive price. Second, they had excellent reviews. When Vincent contacted us, he provided the information we needed, understood what our issues were, and was very timly in delivering the service. Once here, he surveyed the situation where we had ants inside our house, mostly in the kitchen and bathrooms. He determined that he needed to treat the outside first. In doing so, he found five (5) ant nests/collonies around our perimeter and treated those and the entire outside. He used ant traps on the inside. Since treating for ants, we've been free of these insects and the issues we had on the inside. Vincent's professional service was the answer."

"We were getting our house ready to put on the market when we found mold in the crawl space and one of the closets. MacCraft came out the same day we called— Alex walked us through exactly what needed to happen, gave us an estimate, and got it handled. They documented everything so we had paperwork to show buyers. House passed inspection without any issues. Highly recommend them"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold damage devalues a home in two ways: monetarily and emotionally. The numerical amount of mold damage devaluation can be 20% to 37%, which is substantial when house prices are often over $250,000. The second factor to consider is the emotional one: many buyers are hesitant to purchase a home that either has, or had, significant mold damage. For these reasons, it’s very important to deal with any mold issues immediately.

EIFS has several disadvantages, primarily related to cost and moisture. The system tends to have higher upfront installation costs compared to other siding options, and repairs can also be expensive, especially if water damage occurs. A significant downside is its low breathability, which can trap moisture between its layers from either leakage or condensation. This trapped moisture increases the risk of developing mold and rot, which can lead to costly and extensive repairs if not addressed promptly.

Powdery mildew is exactly like it sounds—a widespread mold that looks like baking soda or talcum powder. It’s usually seen on plants and spread in warm climates, which is why many people first discover this issue in their home greenhouse. Over time, plants have become resistant, but if you see it spreading, baking soda and water can eliminate many cases. Otherwise, consider neem oil or fungicide. 

Mold grows at the fastest rate the environment it’s in will let it. The space between your vinyl flooring and the base flooring it’s on is a perfect environment for mold growth, allowing for rapid spread and contamination. Preventing this involves a proper installation of the flooring and constant humidity control.

Several factors affect the color of mold, including humidity levels, age of the mold, and amount of light it receives. A patch of mold that starts out green may darken and turn black as it ages. A species of mold may be green if growing in one environment, but be black in another environment. Color usually isn't a reliable way to determine mold species or risk.
