"This is a high quality mold/fungi/fungus testing company, with excellent customer service and follow-up. The phones were picked up on the first call each time, and arranging for an appointment was very easy. They arrived on time, were efficient, informing, and friendly in their work, and brought commercial equipment to perform the test samples. The follow up phone call and email on the test results was good, and they provided a potential remediation plan for us to follow on the test results. The third party lab utilized by them had easy to understand numbers, graphs, and descriptions of what was tested. We will do business with Gardner Services again in the near future, and will recommend them to others."

"They performed mold remediation, duct cleaning, and whole house deodorizing. I am happy with his services. Not only is the mold gone, the house smells better, and the ductwork functioning more efficiently, but he also left no mess and was very careful with regards to the new carpeting and leaving it clean."

"Overall was good for what the service is. The technician was a postal worker and home inspector. So mold test company appears to be brokers. Their pricing was competitive from other quotes I received but I honestly think it was pricey for time spent and what they do. But like I said the price was pretty standard from the companies I called, in my opinion. But the technician was attentive and knowledgeable, and friendly."

"When I went looking for flooring at a local store, the man said there was a good chance the tiles and glue were asbestos. My research indicated I could just cover the floor (encapsulate it) or remediate it. Even though it was expensive, I thought it best to remediate it. I used Angi's which is what I ALWAYS do and looked up service providers. I called a couple of them and got prices. Environmental was not the cheapest, but Maximus made me feel comfortable. He not only reviewed what needed to be done in the basement, he advised me about other things, as well. I felt like he really knew what he was doing, and he spent time with me. He gave me options, and I think he went above and beyond."

"I am extremely satisfied with the mold inspection and remediation services! The team conducted a thorough inspection of the entire property, used professional equipment to measure moisture levels, and clearly explained where the issues were located. After we agreed on the scope of work, they promptly began the remediation process: everything was done carefully, using safe products, and they provided a detailed report with before-and-after photos. The entire process was smooth, on schedule, and stress-free. I especially want to highlight their high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to answer all my questions. Now the air in my home is fresh again, with no unpleasant odors. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable mold specialists!"

"Arrived on time and explained everything to me about the testing and possibilities. We ended up not having any mold (yay) and David called me with my results, explaining other possibilities for the smell we have been experiencing. It was a great experience!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold is a blight on your home but over time, can be an extreme health risk, especially for immunocompromised individuals. Depending on the type of mold you’re dealing with, you could even experience neurological symptoms, or in extreme cases, you can be hospitalized. Even a tiny speck of toxigenic mold can cause a whole slew of very serious health issues. Deal with any mold issues immediately. 

Painting over mold is not an effective solution and can actually make the problem worse. Instead, it traps moisture, which allows mold to grow and spread beneath the surface. Mold must be completely removed before painting to ensure the problem doesn’t recur. If mold is painted over, it may eventually seep through the new layer of paint, causing discoloration and peeling.

Mold grows quickly. It typically begins to grow on drywall about 24 hours after exposure to moisture or humidity. Drywall is a porous material, which makes it particularly hospitable to mold growth. 

While mold growth begins after just a day or so, it can take a few weeks before the evidence becomes visible. Mold spores will typically appear on the drywall surface within three weeks of growth starting.

A funky smell is the first indicator that mold or mildew is present in your home. You may also notice that you or your household members are suffering from increased allergies or respiratory issues. You should check the most obvious areas first—like your bathroom or anywhere there might be leaks—and if you still can’t locate the source, look under the floorboards. 

Water and electricity are a dangerous duo, so you should always proceed with caution as you inspect your washing machine and attempt to fix or replace any parts. We recommend working with a trained professional when you have a big leak on your machine to avoid fire risks from short-circuiting and electrocution from live wires in your appliance.
