"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."

"As a nervous first-time homeowner, I thought I'd better get an asbestos inspection on my old house just to be safe. I sent a message to Tanner, who called back and spent nearly 20 minutes with me, answering my questions and talking me through his rationale for NOT doing an asbestos inspection at this time, since there are no real indicators that any is present. In other words, he talked himself out of a job! I appreciated his honesty and his willingness to teach on the topic, and I am going forward with a clear sense of how I will know if an inspection or testing is necessary in the future. I would not hesitate to hire Midwest IAQ&A if needed, and I strongly recommend Tanner to anyone seeking an honest, knowledgeable pro who is passionate about his areas of expertise and happy to take the time to communicate with you."

"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."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

Mold grows at the fastest rate the environment it’s in will let it. The space between your vinyl flooring and the base flooring it’s on is a perfect environment for mold growth, allowing for rapid spread and contamination. Preventing this involves a proper installation of the flooring and constant humidity control.

Certainly, DIY mold tests are not perfect when trying to determine whether you have a mold problem. They could give you a false positive reading, or they may fail to detect mold that’s behind a wall, especially if the infestation is still small. Ultimately, you should seek a mold inspection if the DIY test gives you a positive result, just to be certain. And if the test is inconclusive, it’s probably worth seeking an inspection from a pro.

Checking for mold yourself is crucial, as catching mold in the early stages is ideal. Mold can appear green, brown, black, blue, or yellow. It can smell musty and can feel like velvet, leather, or cotton. 

Most often, mold grows near water damage. It’s best to inspect these places for signs of mold growth:

  • Basement: Look in corners, windows, carpet, closets, and around appliances. 

  • Bathrooms: Check around sinks, ceilings, and around toilets. 

  • Kitchen: Inspect around the sink, behind the refrigerator, and behind trash can.

  • Attic: Look near the insulation and near intake and exhaust vents.

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.

The pink mold appears because of the presence of a naturally occurring airborne bacteria called serratia marcescens. When this bacteria lands on a moist surface, it multiplies, creating the pink film. To reduce the ability of this bacteria to multiply, use a bathroom exhaust fan to reduce humidity in the bathroom. Regularly clean the interior of the shower with a disinfectant as well.
