"Jeremiah came out and tested the air and moisture and other items to determine if I had mold in my basement. After getting the test results there was evidence of mold and he recommended a company that provides a do it yourself kit for mold remediation. (Not cheap). After getting the items and realizing that there was more work, it would have been better for me to let my insurance company handle this as I do have coverage for mold/fungi. Though having a professional do the work is expensive, from what Jeremiah mentioned, it does not guarantee that the work will be complete or the source of the problem taken care of. He mentioned most companies will take care of the mold but not necessarily the cause of the mold. For this I would have to contact another company."

"This was the 3rd time we have used Lawson and we have been very pleased each time. The first was a crawl space, the second was to remove old insulation in the attic and replace it. This time we had Lawson install a vent from a bathroom fan and install a Sanadry unit in our basement. No more moisture or musty smell! Great job every time and the men are pleasant to work with and respectful of our home. Neat and tidy work."

"After coming home from a vacation and finding our finished basement flooded we used Home Advisor to find help. CARE Property Services responded immediately and did a thorough job of removing the water, and drying out the basement, after removing all furniture and multiple cardboard boxes. After the dry out they returned for the recovery phase, replacing drywall and insulation as needed, painting all rooms and a thorough cleaning of the carpet. Then they put back all the furniture and those boxes not ruined or that we requested to leave for us to evaluate. They worked with our insurance company making the entire process as easy as possible. They were wonderful to work with, professional, helpful and did all they could to prevent any disruption to our life. I highly recommend them."

"This is a very stressful experience as anyone who has had mold can attest. Mold Inspection Plus was prompt and helpful from the word go. My whole ceiling collapsed in my dining room while I was on vacation because of a bad wax seal on my toilet and the build up of water in the plaster ceiling beneath my drywall ceiling. They came out immediately when I called and had extensive knowledge of what need to be done and how much it would cost me to get the ceiling and walls that need to be removed so they could spray. The went over the whole procedure and how it would go and what each test did and why we were running them. As I said before the whole process is stressful and my first meeting unfortunately for me since I could get off work happened through FaceTime with my girlfriend and the owner of the company James at our house, which made it all the more stressful for me. A day later when I called James in a panic because I felt like I was distracted at work and I didn't understand the process as well as I thought, not to mention I missed some info that was relayed from my girlfriend as they had both been in the house and discussed much more thurough then our brief call, he happily went through the whole process with me again over the phone until I was comfortable and understood everything. The work went quick, they had it all removed in sprayed in less then a day and even came the morning after I fave the verbal go ahead. I was only displace the one evening as it takes 12 hrs for the chemical to work and you are not suppose to be in the house. They even alleviated my fears that the spraying would kill my fish, which it did not. This occurred on a Thursday and they were removing the equipment by Saturday morning. When they removed the equipment they took a second air test to make sure that the levels inside my house matched the outside air levels to confirm the mold was gone. When the results came in that they had halfed the extreme high levels but had not normalized they came back out at no additional cost to spray again. A few days later the came through to take another air test and this time when we sent it off to the lab it came back normal. The whole crew was pleasant and professional and they even were extremely nice when my insurance company ran dragged the whole process on for over a month with payment. I can express enough how glad I am that I chose them, they even through some free plumbing advice for me and answer any of my many plumbing questions as my house and plumbing is extremely old and James was plumber by trade."

They came in a were able to explain to me clearly what the damage was and what to expect. The guy they sent out was very knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone who thinks they might have a mild problem"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on property size, test types, and additional services like mold sampling.

Yes, a one-time water leak can cause mold. Depending on the conditions, mold can begin to grow within 12 to 48 hours. The risk increases with the severity of the leak, high humidity, and when water soaks into absorbent materials like drywall. To prevent mold growth, stop the leak immediately and ensure the area is dried completely; running a blower fan for 24 hours is recommended. If you do notice mold, it's best to call a mold removal specialist to address the situation.

Silverfish aren’t a direct sign of a mold problem. But since they like dark, damp locations, they’re a very strong sign that mold problems could exist. That’s why it’s important to look for signs of mold while you are taking care of a silverfish problem, and fix any causes of long-term moisture in your house.

Figuring out why you have a musty smell in your house is the first step to getting rid of it. Mold or mildew is most likely causing the unpleasant odor. People use these terms interchangeably, but they’re actually different.

Mold is a fungus that loves to grow in moist, humid places. It’s typically black or green and has a raised, uneven texture. Stay vigilant for signs mold may be growing in your home. 

You’ll find mildew growing on your shower walls and in your bathroom’s nooks and crannies. It’s a specific type of mold that grows flat. Mildew is usually white, gray, or yellow.

Black mold on wood is a very serious issue. Besides compromising the structural integrity of the wood, it poses significant health risks. Stachybotrys chartarum, commonly known as toxic black mold, produces mycotoxins that can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, skin irritations, and other health problems. If left untreated, it can spread rapidly and compromise the structural stability of the affected wooden structures. Immediate remediation and preventive measures are essential to mitigate the risks associated with black mold on wood.
