"My husband and I are writing to communicate to you a very positive interaction with Brian. His professional approach to mold remediation, which was mandatory in the conduction of the sale of our home, displayed a knowledgeable background, as he also educated my husband and myself, as to the mold clean-out process. His service was stellar!?"

Dark mold growth, while common, can cause allergic reactions and various symptoms even when in the attic.
Great project which ultimately lowered the indoor humidity by 20% making it more livable for the family, storage where there was none previously, and much more healthy from and indoor air quality perspective (no stinky bacteria).

"Professional and top quality service from beginning to end. Robert, the sales rep, inspected our attic and instantly identified the root cause of our mold problem, matching what a separate inspector also ascertained. He worked with us to provide a fair price for a comprehensive solution that remediated the mold while also recommending an approach to the root cause. What is great about Green Attic is that they are able to handle it all...saving me time and money from having to go through separate companies to piece together the full solution. Communication throughout the entire process was timely, consistent, and pleasant. The crews who came to do the work were obviously experienced and went out of their way to ensure I was kept up to date on progress (showing me before and after pictures along the way). These guys worked hard in tough conditions and made me feel confident the job was completed to spec and with attention to detail. I couldn't be more pleased!"

"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."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Figuring out why you have a musty smell in your house is the first step to getting rid of it. Mold or mildew is most likely causing the unpleasant odor. People use these terms interchangeably, but they’re actually different.

Mold is a fungus that loves to grow in moist, humid places. It’s typically black or green and has a raised, uneven texture. Stay vigilant for signs mold may be growing in your home. 

You’ll find mildew growing on your shower walls and in your bathroom’s nooks and crannies. It’s a specific type of mold that grows flat. Mildew is usually white, gray, or yellow.

Yes, mold can grow in a wet dryer vent. Mold is a type of fungi, and fungi thrive in warm, moist conditions. Dryer vents need to be aired out so heat can escape and moisture can dry. If your dryer vents aren’t properly vented, the trapped heat and moisture will cause mold to grow, and the mold can spread to the dryer and even your clothes. Not only can this leave a musty smell on your freshly laundered clothes, but—more importantly—it also poses a health risk.

Yes, mold behind drywall can affect your health, even if it is not visible. Mold releases spores and mycotoxins into the air that can be inhaled, leading to various health issues including respiratory problems, allergies, asthma symptoms, coughs, and other infections. While individuals with pre-existing conditions like allergies, asthma, or weakened immune systems are particularly vulnerable, anyone can be affected by prolonged exposure. Additionally, if left untreated, mold can spread throughout your home and compromise its structural integrity, resulting in costly repairs.

It is common for mold to grow around air vents, especially in areas with high humidity or moisture problems. These vents provide a perfect environment for mold to thrive due to the condensation caused by the meeting of warm and cool air. Mold growth can be accelerated by the presence of dust and debris around the vents. Regular maintenance, proper ventilation, and addressing any water leaks or excess humidity can prevent the growth of mold around air vents.

Knowing what to expect during a mold inspection can help make the process easier. Prepare by closing doors and windows for 48 hours, turning off HVAC systems for at least two hours, and avoiding disinfectant chemicals for at least 48 hours. 

The mold inspection process takes between 24 and 48 hours. Your professional will check walls, fireplaces, air ducts, vents, and windows for visible spores. They will also take an outdoor base air sample. Your pro will send these samples to a lab for testing and advise you on the findings.
