"I had a water heater leak that contaminated a 4x5 room with mold. RMS came over and thoroughly explained what they can do to fix it. They were punctual and also informative while they worked which made my wife comfortable with their work. The mold is gone and my family is safe. I would hire them again if ever needed."

"I had Brett come to our home to test for mold because I’ve had an ongoing illness that Drs can never diagnose. He was so caring & did the testing within days of talking to him the 1st time. After the testing, he explained everything in detail and provided a list of things to improve the air quality in the home. I have never dealt with any type of contractor that was as thorough and really had our best interest at heart. He was honest, upfront with cost and I felt like I could totally trust him and his recommendations. If you are in need of mold or air quality testing, call Brett. You will be completely satisfied with his knowledge and care to make your home “healthy” again."

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

After you clean mildew or mold that appears in your home, you expect the nasty odor to disappear, too. Sometimes, though, the odor can linger after cleaning. To get rid of a mold smell, you may need to clean the area every few days for a few weeks. Use a dehumidifier or fans to try to remove moisture from the area. If the odor remains after a few weeks, you may still have mold or mildew in the area. Call a mold testing professional for another inspection.

The primary difference is that black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) is considered toxic and more dangerous than regular mold. It can produce harmful chemicals called mycotoxins, which may lead to severe health issues like respiratory problems, skin irritation, headaches, and other long-term complications. While regular mold is rarely toxic, it can still cause allergic reactions and respiratory irritation. Visually, black mold often appears dark—green, gray, brown, or black—with a fuzzy texture, whereas regular mold can be almost any color. Black mold is less common and typically grows in areas with severe water damage. Regardless of the type, you should not ignore any mold infestation in your home.

You can do more with a home test kit than just check your water’s hardness. There are a few types of tests. The first one is simple and involves a strip that checks your water’s pH balance. The second and more thorough option is a master test kit, which shows your pH plus the presence of nitrite, ammonia, and other elements through color shades. Unsurprisingly, the most thorough test is one you send to a proper lab for analysis

Removing mold yourself can be dangerous. Always wear protective gear to cover your skin, face, and eyes, and wear a respiratory mask to protect your lungs. It is most recommended to only remove small areas of mold on your own and leave large mold growth to professionals. Mold growth can also be persistent. Without addressing the root cause, DIY surface cleaning can be ineffective and temporary.

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.
