"Dave was extremely helpful in giving grounded, low cost solutions for my ongoing mold issue. Proving sound and reliable advice in a sea of so much overwhelming information was invaluable. He took the time to look over a previous report that provided misguided information and recommendations and took the time to walk me through the correct steps saving me so much time and headache. Thank you so so much. I highly recommend this company for their mold services and consult."

"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."

"We received the phone number of this company from a friend that hired them and he was able to reduce his utilities bills by doing an efficiency audit that includes covering all the openings at the house (windows, HVAC, Doors etc.?.) and then with a machine, running the test and to see from where the house is losing most of the energy and to perform a repair that will prevent that in the future. Ezra and his team of workers came to perform the test and to see what need to be repaired or improved. The audit took close to 5 hours and then the machine that they used worked for additional 2 plus hours. After that was completed, we saw clearly that the problem was the windows and the HVAC. Ezra recommended us to perform a repair to both of them and then to run the test again. After the workers of them finished the repair, Ezra came once again and did the test. He was pleased with the results and so as we. During all the work, we saw how it was before and how it was after. We do recommend this company for that type of work! They are professional and honest people to hire and they carry all the relevant licenses as well."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold can grow anywhere in a home where moisture accumulates and doesn't dry out, particularly in areas with poor ventilation. Common materials affected include insulation and drywall. The most frequent locations for mold growth are attics, basements, crawl spaces, wall cavities, bathroom and kitchen walls, exposed foundations, windows and window sills, air conditioning and heating vents, and around fireplaces and chimneys.

Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.

Mold doesn’t require much airflow to make it out from behind walls and into your living space, making you sick. HVAC systems can actually pull the mold from behind walls and spread it through your home. While the mold may be out of sight, moisture transfer from the wall can also spread the mold from behind the wall into your living space and air. Any cracks in the walls or bad insulation only compound this effect. 

Black mold and wood rot are both types of fungi that thrive in damp areas, but they are distinct issues with different consequences. Wood rot specifically refers to the decay of wood caused by fungi, which compromises the wood's structural integrity. Black mold, on the other hand, is a fungus that grows on the surface of materials, including both rotting and non-rotting wood. The primary difference is their impact: wood rot affects the wood's structure, while toxic black mold is a health hazard. Inhaling black mold spores can cause severe respiratory issues, whereas wood rot spores are generally not harmful to people. Because mold can grow on rotting wood, the two issues can be interconnected, but they are not the same.

Toxic mold doesn't have a specific color; instead, toxicity depends on the type of mold and the mycotoxins it produces. Stachybotrys chartarum (also known as black mold) is notorious for its potential toxicity. However, not all molds appearing black are Stachybotrys chartarum. Mold species that appear in various colors, such as green, gray, brown, or black, can also produce mycotoxins. Therefore, it's essential to focus on identifying the type of mold through professional testing rather than relying solely on color to determine its toxicity.
