"This was worth every cent. They truly care about their customers and empathize with the struggles that mold can cause. They are thorough and there for you every step of the way. We were very impressed with the service and Larry Ross, the inspector that they sent out, was top notch, thorough and empathetic. They have truly been the light at the end of a very dark tunnel for me and my family. Highly recommend them to anyone needing mold testing."

"Vince and his team were extremely responsive to my concerns about health complications due to mold. They safely removed the mold using containment, negative air/air scrubbers, removal of the drywall that had the mold on it, and carpet removal all through my basement window (to avoid cross-contamination). They also removed any furniture that I requested to be taken away. The team sprayed the area where the mold was, cleaned the entire basement with hepa vacuums and wiped down the entire basement. Vince responded to my many questions and concerns extremely quickly either by phone or visits to the house. I have reached out to him several times for advice and questions about other areas in the home since the remediation and he always gets back to me. Vince has been a reliable resource. I recommend Iowa Mold Removal to safely remove mold from your home. Vince is a pleasure to work with during a stressful time."

"Drake and his helper were very personable, professional, and attentive. They noticed we had a black mold problem in the basement that we hadn't seen and proposed a solution to help us. The solution keeps our family safe and saves us some money. Would definitely recommend hiring them!"

"Dillon was a great guy and worked fast and efficient. My house is 50 plus years old and the duct work had never been cleaned. Post the work, the house even smelled better. I am in the middle of a complete remodel and living in the house. I had all 11 vent grilles removed -(saved Dillon a pile of time not having to remove and re-install) and I would have thought a discount would have been in order."

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

If you own a stereo microscope, you should be able to see the fibers. The stereo microscope often can perform magnification up to 50x. But unless you have experience viewing asbestos fibers, you may not know exactly what you are seeing. Some fibers are curly, while others are long and straight. Blue, brown, white, and gray colored fibers are all possible.

Mildew starts as a tiny spot, but if left untreated, it can severely damage your home as well as cause life-threatening health issues. Mildew eats away materials like wood and drywall and if left untreated can destroy entire walls and buildings. Mold sickness is almost a guarantee if you don’t tackle this problem as soon as it rears its head.

If you see mold spores on walls, flooring, or ceilings, it’s best to call in a mold inspection pro to investigate. Similarly, if you smell signs of mold—musty, earthy, rotting wood, or stale scents—it’s time to call a mold inspection professional. 

Other less-obvious times when you should have your home inspected for mold include:

  • After flooding

  • After home water damage

  • Having ceiling or wall damage

  • Buying or selling a home

  • After a persistent unexplained cough or allergy symptoms 

  • Noticing discolored surfaces

No, rubber mulch isn’t toxic and is considered safe to use around pets. However, pets, especially dogs, may try to chew on or eat rubber mulch, which can cause choking. Consider monitoring your pets and their behavior when around this mulch type to see how they respond to it.

Professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to detect asbestos, radon, and VOCs.
