"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."

"Great company to deal with, from the first phone call to the cleanup after the job. Honest, professional, on time, great work and a decent price. I could not find anyone within 50+ miles to do the entire job I needed (which involved mold remediation, paint scraping, joint repair, and water resistant sealing). I will probably use them again for other services."

"Very good and he also advised me that some dry wall had mold on it and he removed that free of charge. I would recommend this person to anyone that needs his service. I also like the fact that it is family owned and he is training his boys to follow him and learn the trade."

"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!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Nearly all homes have at least some airborne mold spores. If you want to determine the concentration of spores in the air, you have a few options. The most effective option is to hire a professional tester who can take air samples of the home. The tester would send the samples to a laboratory to determine the concentration of mold spores. 

Mold damage devalues a home in two ways: monetarily and emotionally. The numerical amount of mold damage devaluation can be 20% to 37%, which is substantial when house prices are often over $250,000. The second factor to consider is the emotional one: many buyers are hesitant to purchase a home that either has, or had, significant mold damage. For these reasons, it’s very important to deal with any mold issues immediately.

If a professional mold inspector finds mold in your home, they’ll conduct mold testing to determine the type of mold species and the number of spores in your home. This plan will help develop a remediation plan, where a mold remediation specialist will remove the spores from your home. Since mold remediation costs the average homeowner $2,225, it’s best to treat mold at the first sign rather than waiting.

Slime mold can thrive for weeks or months in the perfect environment, but that rarely occurs. The mold will typically die within a week of you noticing it. However, it could be dead long before it disappears, and since it’s safe to handle, it’s easier to get rid of it all at once. This eliminates its chance to spread, and also won’t leave you looking at decaying slime mold.

Pressure-treated wood offers some protection from the elements but doesn’t protect against mold. However, if you spot mold growing on pressure-treated wood, it doesn’t indicate rot or an interior fungal infection—the treatment process ensures that the mold stays on the exterior. Keep the wood dry, but if you spot some mold, remove it immediately and clean the area.
