THE MOLD INSPECTOR

Howard Newmark (aka The Mold Inspector) is the guy you are looking for if you need mold testing. He came to our house on a Friday and was able to get same-day results back from the lab -- this was especially wonderful because due to agreement with the mold remediation company that did the clean up, we had to stay out of the house until the house received a clean bill of health, so we were able to be back in for the weekend.

This provider was outstanding.  They communicated well and were prompt in getting the job done and working with us.  I highly recommend them.

Howard came to my condo and setup his equipment for the testing in 2 areas and included one swab for mold. He described the process fully and was finished in about 15-20 minutes. Within 3 days I was emailed a lab report which was very detailed. I thought I was going to be receive a more detailed report explaining what should be done but Howard said that something like that was extra. Because of the misunderstanding Howard was nice enough to provide exactly what I was expecting once he realized I was disappointed. I think Howard does a very good job I just misunderstood what I was getting for $299. I would call Howard in the future but I will make sure I know what to expect.

Thanks to Charlie, we were given the names of honest mold remediators, who did not try to cheat us.

He did what we asked him to do so we were satisfied with him. That is all we needed him for and he did it. It wasn't cheap but he was so upfront with what it was going to cost so we agreed to it. I thought he was very business-like. He did what he was supposed to do. His price is high but I don't have anything to compare it to. He was very professional.

He sends the samples out for the microbiological analysis. I received a full report very quickly and was able to establish that only the air ducts were the problem, not the air in the house. This was taken care of by a company that specializes in this type of work.



The entire problem seems to have occurred because the settings for the house air conditioning humidity removal were not set up correctly when my new high efficiency air conditioning system was installed.

Mr. Newmark was very professional. I had suspected we had a problem with mold because our children kept getting sick. After checking out a few places, The Mold Inspector made me feel very comfortable and I trusted he knew what he was doing, especially after talking with a few other companies. I had even set up another one to come and was called and told they couldnt perform the tests because it was raining. This confused me and after I did my own research i realized this wasnt right. I spoke with Mr. Newmark who confirmed the same and agreed to have him come and do our inspection! He was very thorough and was able to give us a report just by visual inspection the first day and by the 2-3rd day we had a full detailed report and test results.  He returned my calls with any questions I had as far as the mold remediation and testing process.  My calls were returned in the same day very quickly! 

The Mold Inspector made a very scary situation, manageable. They came in and quickly identified the issue and set the ball in motion to get it resolved before it had a chance to explode into a very large and costly issue.
