"This is my second review. Vince and his team did a fantastic job remediating the hidden mold in my basement as I reviewed before. Since then I have been worried about where else mold could by hiding in my home. Vince has gone above and beyond to help me feel comfortable again. Vince himself has made a number of trips to my home to check any suspicious areas each time that I contact him about. He has sent his team members too. I recently had my attic checked. I canâ t thank him enough for putting up with me. I have been extremely impressed with the whole home dehumidifier, Aprilaire, that his team set up in my basement. My basement humidity stays in the 40s or below. That is in all areas of my basement. Prior to the Aprilaire, I was using a single dehumidifier and it did a good job dehumidifying the area that the dehumidifier was set up in but what I didnâ t realize was that it wasnâ t dehumidifying the other areas of my basement. I have hygrometers set up everywhere now and I can see that the Aprilaire is doing its job. I do recommend Vince and his team. He does care for the well being of his clients!"

"Our radon specialist, Tim Milledge, was terrific. Communication was excellent, he arrived on time, was professional, courteous and experienced. He was able to run the pipe line and place the other equipment in a way to be unobtrusive and did nothing to detract from the aesthetics of our property. He explained post procedures and cleaned up after himself, unusual these days with service providers, and completed the installation quickly and efficiently. We would highly recommend SWAT and, in particular Tim."

Biohazard Remediation questions, answered by experts

While goats can eat poison ivy and other plants that are harmful to humans, this doesn’t mean they can eat anything. Certain plant species, like azaleas, sumac, nightshade, Virginia creeper, and more, can kill goats. If your property has any of these plants, it won’t qualify for goat rental services. Most rental companies will ask for pictures or videos of your property or even inspect your land themselves to ensure none of these plants are present.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity for several reasons, though opinions on them can vary. The primary drawbacks include an outdated appearance, difficulty with cleaning and maintenance, and potential health risks, as ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos. As design trends have shifted toward sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now prefer smooth ceilings for their clean look and easier upkeep. However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as excellent acoustic properties for noise reduction and the ability to hide imperfections. Some also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective solution. Ultimately, whether they are "bad" depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and aesthetic goals.

Yes, it is common for mold to grow on the underside of the siding due to the moist atmosphere. When there is an abundance of moisture, mold has the ideal environment to spread and thrive. This fungus can be found on virtually any surface, both indoors and outdoors. Generally, it is most active when the environment is warm, damp, and humid.

Frequently, fungi have a gray color with a powdery or fuzzy texture on a wall. In showers, fungi and mildew may resemble a pink slime. Meanwhile, toxic mold may resemble a fuzzy growth on walls that’s often black or green in color. Some toxic black mold will have specks of orange or white on it. However, not all dark-colored mold you find on a wall is toxic. An infestation of toxic mold often will spread faster than fungi on walls. If you are unsure whether you have toxic mold, reach out to a professional for help.

To kill white mold on wood, a mixture of white vinegar and water (a 1:1 ratio) or a water and hydrogen peroxide combo can be effective. Spray the affected area and let it sit for a few hours before scrubbing the mold off. Borax mixed with water is another option; it not only kills the mold but also prevents future growth. Ensure the wood is completely dry after cleaning, and consider applying a wood sealer or paint to prevent moisture absorption, which discourages mold growth. Regular inspections and maintaining proper ventilation can also help prevent mold recurrence on wood surfaces.
