"We called Pure Maintenance when we discovered mold in our attic and they were very responsive to our Angi request. They came out promptly, did a thorough review and provided photos of the mold extent. Unfortunately, they were not able to perform all of the services we wanted to have done so we opted for a different provider. I would recommend them for light mold restoration - everyone was very courteous, knowledgeable and professional."

"This is an awesome company and their service were superior. After purchasing a home in Decatur and thinking that when I purchased this house that the mole problem was remediated. The company T.I.C. was to remove the mold and they did nothing but paint the walls, it was a cover up. I begin to get ill and I called Healthy Homes. Caleb, Peyton and their crew oh my goodness they were wonderful. They were professional, respectful and yet personable. They explained what they were going to do and they tirelessly worked to remediate my problem. They got the job done, they removed the mold and everything else that had mold on it. They cleaned up after they were done. If I could I would give them a rating of 10 star. I would highly recommend this company. I promise you, you will not be disappointed. If you want the job done right, hire this company. A big thank you to these guys and God's blessings. Classie H."

"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."

"The work was completed12/17/10. I sent payment shortly thereafter. To date I have not received the post air sample results, copy of guarantee or any acknowledgment from from Guardian. I called Candy Harris and have no return call from her. I know it is the holidays but I still deserve some contact from calls and payment. I am going to attempt to contact them today. I am trying to refinance my home and this lack of communication is slowing the process beyond the deadline set by State Farm. I receive daily communication from State Farm and am upset I'm getting nothing from the people who did the work. I have questions that go unanswered"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Toxic mold doesn't have a specific color; instead, toxicity depends on the type of mold and the mycotoxins it produces. Stachybotrys chartarum (also known as black mold) is notorious for its potential toxicity. However, not all molds appearing black are Stachybotrys chartarum. Mold species that appear in various colors, such as green, gray, brown, or black, can also produce mycotoxins. Therefore, it's essential to focus on identifying the type of mold through professional testing rather than relying solely on color to determine its toxicity.

Yes, mold can grow on virtually any porous material, including plaster, and can be a pain to get rid of. If you see any signs of mold or mildew growth, call a local mold inspection company to take a look—mold is a health hazard and can spread quickly to other parts of your home.

Running an air conditioner with mold is not safe because it can spread harmful mold spores throughout your home. Exposure to these spores can trigger various health problems, including respiratory issues, allergies, coughing, wheezing, sneezing, itchy eyes, and a sore throat. It may also aggravate asthma in household members. Continued exposure can increase the risk of more serious illnesses like sinus infections, pneumonia, and bronchitis. If you suspect mold in your air conditioner, you should stop using the system until it has been properly cleaned to avoid health risks and further contamination.

The negatives of a humidifier are the potential for mold growth due to high humidity levels, the up-front cost, and the energy requirements to run it. Depending on the state of humidity in your home, you may not actually see lower utility bills due to the humidifier running on a near-constant basis. 

Black mold often smells musty, stale, or earthy, and some people liken its scent to that of sweaty clothing. While not everyone can identify the smell of mold, you are likely to smell it before you see it, as it usually is hidden in dark, damp areas; instead, the scent may pervade your entire home. If you smell mold, start by opening windows and looking for the source of the smell. If you find mold or are concerned about side effects, call a mold specialist right away, as it can be almost impossible to get rid of yourself.
