"Brian with Southside mold and testing is one of the best companies I have ever experienced. Discovering mold in your home for us was very unsettling and scary. From the first phone call with Brian to the mold remedy completion, we received service excellence and piece of mind. Brian is very talented, knowledgeable and professional. He explained in detail the what, how and why about the project in its entirety. Even with the price being great, I am still not one to hire service without having at least two or three professional quotes and opinions but this Company and Brian made it apparent to look no further. Thank you Southside Mold and testing and THANK YOU BRIAN!!"

They worked in a timely manner, kept us up to date and educated through everything they did, and had excellent communication. I would recommend them time and time again!"

"We have a cold room for adhesive storage and had a horrible case of mold due to an incorrect build out. I called these guys and they came out very quickly. They removed all of the mold along with infested ceiling tiles and paint the fell off of the wall during the process. They left the walls looking new again and cleaned their mess. We have not had a mold issue since. I highly recommend these professionals!"

"On 3/10/26 our community was struck by a tornado. We called Flawless restoration that night and by 9:00am the next morning (3/11/26) they had a crew at our home. They were professional and did a GREAT job. At a time when they could have price gouged us, they did not. Their price was very reasonable. we highly recommend them."

"They came, they saw, and they conquered! I had a sewer back-up in the utility room of my home, and had put kitty-litter to help absorb backup. Although it initially helped, it created its own mess when even more had to be put down because of additional backup. To be honest, wasn't sure if HydroForce was up to the task, especially when they had to finish up on another day. But, HydroForce proved not only to be up to the task. but did an awesome job! They cleared, cleaned, and disinfected the floor and the surrounding appliances to the point they would be affected by the back-up. The only thing I did expect that wasn't done was the use of an air scrubber or purifier because of mold/mildew concerns with water backup. However, the job they did was impressive and I will recommend them for future use."

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Mildew is a type of mold that forms in areas of excessive moisture and poor ventilation. Although it commonly exists in household air, it can’t take hold and spread if a surface is clean and dry. Generally, if you have any mildew or mold issues, it’s because the humidity in either your house, room, cabinet, or cupboard is above 50 percent. Common areas where you’ll find mildew are around water sources, which is why it’s commonly found near showers and in kitchen sinks.

Inhaling black mold spores, even from behind walls, can cause people to have a wide variety of potential health issues. Some people may only notice a few breathing problems, while others can become quite sick with symptoms related to severe allergies. Constant exposure to mold spores can lead to lung infections and other long-term health problems. If you believe you have black mold inside your walls, you will want to reach out to a pro for an inspection and for advice on how to take care of the problem before it causes severe illness.

Turn off the water main immediately. Hire a professional plumber to check on your pipes and make any replacements so you avoid water damage. You don’t want to take any risks with flooding, so it’s best to consult a professional plumber as quickly as possible.

If you’re wondering which is more toxic, laminate vs.vinyl flooring, you might be surprised to learn that both can include toxic chemicals. Depending on the specific brand and the manufacturing process, both are likely made from synthetic materials that can emit volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, into the air. However, since laminate has a wood core, it is more sustainable and less polluting than vinyl, which is entirely synthetic and almost always emits more VOCs than laminate flooring. If you’re concerned about indoor air quality, choose a low-chemical flooring manufacturer or, better yet, choose flooring that doesn’t off-gas VOCs.
