"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."

"Kevin did a great job. He came out quick (same day Saturday), completed a thorough assessment, provided excellent advice (not only mold, but other house maintenance issues) and offered a competitive price. I would refer Kevin to anyone."

"Came home after about a week and a half away to some pretty extensive water damage in my kitchen due to a clogged drain on my buildingâ s roof. Kevin came out next day to do an assessment, and the day after that with his team to do the emergency removal of drywall, insulation, etc. and apply antimicrobial agent and set up fans and dehumidifiers to speed up the drying process. Explained every step of the process, next steps, is working with my insurance company, everything is taken care of. Removed a lot of anxiety for me. The work isnâ t done yet but Kevin and his team have been excellent so far and I have the utmost confidence that this restoration job will be completed to perfection. K-Savers is everything you need in a contractor: skilled, knowledgeable, courteous, responsiveâ ¦ just consummate professionals!"

"They were extremely professional and honest. They actually told me how I can do the work myself, so I could avoid hiring them for a small project. I appreciate the attention to detail, and that they provide a free analysis, which truly is free. They don't oversell, and they are reasonable and work with you."

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. 

Professional carpet cleaning can cause mold if the job is not done properly. There are two ways this can happen—if your carpet cleaner fails to dry the carpet properly, or if your carpet cleaner uses an excessive amount of water during the cleaning process. Mold can grow wherever moisture is present, so make sure you hire a pro who knows the process inside and out.

The answer to whether it’s safe to use a moldy dishwasher is: It depends. Mold exposure affects people differently. It’s possible that even a small amount of mold in your dishwasher could contribute to respiratory issues and other health problems, especially if you have an underlying health condition. Mold is capable of surviving the high heat and detergent used in a dishwasher cycle, so it’s important to ensure that you act quickly at the first sign of mold, or contact a house cleaner near you to stay on top of any potential mold problems.

Mildew and mold are not different—mildew is a specific type of mold and yes, it can become dangerous if left untreated. It would be amazing if we were all biochemists but because we most likely aren’t, it isn’t wise to assume any mold is mildew on sight alone. Harmless mold and toxigenic mold (which can be deadly) look very similar, so if you see any new mold that looks even a little suspect, call a mold professional immediately.

Mold thrives in wet or moist conditions, so a fridge water dispenser can be the perfect place for them to live. You may transfer mold to the dispenser's nozzle by touching it with the rim of an unwashed water bottle or your hands. 

If you see splotches that look like mold, you can clean them using vinegar. Distilled white vinegar is acidic enough to kill and remove most mold species.
