"Overall was good for what the service is. The technician was a postal worker and home inspector. So mold test company appears to be brokers. Their pricing was competitive from other quotes I received but I honestly think it was pricey for time spent and what they do. But like I said the price was pretty standard from the companies I called, in my opinion. But the technician was attentive and knowledgeable, and friendly."

"We hired Jeff to give us pre and post mold remediation air quality tests, and I am so glad we did. Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and had no conflict of interest on the outcome of the results since we had a different company doing the remediation. We actually had to go back to the mold remediation company when his air quality report did not pass clearance, and he was our chief advocate in getting the company to come back and do further remediation. He has been a great to work with because he is not only an expert but is a caring individual, and I would recommend anybody use his services. He also is licensed to test for asbestos, which is our next project before we remove our popcorn ceiling!"

"We wanted to check our new home to make sure there was no mold present. The guy who came over was very nice and very professional. The only issue I had which may not even be Absolute Clean's issue but it was expensive for the test. They send the tests off to a third company to give you the results. It was a quick process and easy to understand the results. It just seemed pretty expensive for a test. I would have hated to have actually had mold that needed to be removed. However, I recommend this company for quick testing and results."

"I took advantage of Angie's List free home inspection for mold and water. Paul was to arrive at noon and called and asked if he could arrive at 11:30 which was fine. My husband and I were both home for the inspection and boy did we learn a lot. We felt that Paul was very knowledgeable. He reassured us that we don't have a big mold problem. He also gave us a list of things that we could do to improve the humidity and keep our basement from forming a mold problem in the future.   We've already completed all but one of Paul's recommendations. This company also does air duct cleaning which is why I initially joined Agie's List.  There are tons of scams out there regarding air duct cleaning. I wanted to find a reputible company to provide this service.  After working through the mold inspection with Paul, we feel that Absolute Clean will provide us with a good air duct cleaning. We plan to schedule that with them very soon.

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally unhealthy and can be dangerous to live in a damp basement. The damp air can negatively affect your breathing and lungs, and the moisture promotes mold growth and pest infestations. Inhaling mold spores or waste particles from insects and rodents attracted to the moisture can be hazardous. This damp, moldy air can also circulate into your main living area. It is crucial to resolve any moisture problems and implement preventative measures before using your basement as a living space.

There are different types of mold, and not all humans are the same. For example, a more toxic type of mold may have less of an effect on a healthy person than a less toxic mold in the home of someone who is immunocompromised. If you recognize any symptoms of mold poisoning—sinus issues, brain fog, respiratory distress, constraint cough, migraines, or any others—call your doctor or go to the hospital before you attempt any removal.

Not all molds are inherently harmful, but their presence can lead to health issues, especially for individuals with allergies or respiratory problems. Black mold often garners attention due to its potential toxicity. However, other molds can cause health concerns too. Regular mold, appearing in various colors like green, gray, brown, or black, can trigger allergies and respiratory problems. Prompt removal and prevention measures are essential, regardless of mold type, to maintain a healthy indoor environment.

Slime mold isn’t toxic to your dog, even if they eat it. Toxicity and comfort are two different things, and if you notice your dog eating slime mold, you should stop them, but not worry too much. Expect a period of gastrointestinal distress, and possibly some other complications, but your dog should be ok within a few days.

Mold loves a moist environment, so the best way to keep it from returning is to keep your machine as dry as possible. Take laundry out of the machine as soon as you can after a cycle finishes. If your laundry room is humid, consider using a dehumidifier or at least running a fan to increase airflow.

It's also a good idea to leave the washing machine door open when it's not in use, to improve airflow and keep the interior dry.
