"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect. From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences. They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time! Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected."

"They installed a Radon Mitigation system in a house I was selling. They had the best price, the experience I wanted, and were able to install a few days after I called. Technician was very nice and efficient in getting it installed. Good warranty too. I had my system installed in an encapsulated crawl space."

"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!"

Biohazard Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

While water in your basement is unlikely to make you sick unless it’s coming from a sewage backup, mold is likely to start to grow in wet areas within 24 hours, and mold can make you sick. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), inhaling mold spores can cause allergy symptoms, including runny nose, itchy eyes, difficulty breathing, wheezing, and itchy skin. Individuals with pre-existing respiratory issues like asthma and immunocompromised individuals are at an elevated risk of symptoms when inhaling mold spores.

Using a professional to remove mold and toxic materials ensures complete removal, which prevents recurrence and health risks.

No, not all black mold is toxic. Although people often refer to stachybotrys chartarum as toxic black mold, there is little evidence that any one type of black mold has more toxicity than another. People who have an allergy to black mold would be more likely to have a dangerous reaction after inhaling it. Long-term exposure to black mold spores can lead to severe infection and disease. Some people only have minor health problems after black mold exposure. Ultimately, toxicity is rare with any kind of mold, but it is possible, so always take the appropriate precautions.

While bleach can be effective in killing mold, it may not fully remove mold stains from siding. Additionally, bleach can be harsh and may damage certain types of siding. It's recommended to use specialized mold cleaners or natural alternatives that are safe for your specific siding material as a part of your regular siding maintenance. 

If you’re worried mold might still be lingering after you’ve cleaned your items, here are signs to watch for:

  • Musty smell

  • Visible spots or stains

  • Allergy symptoms when you’re around the item

  • Damp or sticky feel.

If you notice these signs, it might be time to let go of the item or get professional treatment.
