"My review is tiered because the overall service seems to run on tiers. The technician was great. Very personable and professional. 5 stars for his work. Your tests get sent to the lab. The lab explains the results and recommends a company for a DIY solution. This is where things start to fall apart. The company you get referred to has abysmal reviews and the sales pitch feels extremely predatory. That taints my opinion of the lab results which would be teamed up with a business they probably shouldn't recommend. We're planning on either an independent company locally to get a quote from for any remediations we will take or even see what home depot has to offer. In any event please read the reviews of BioCide, the company they will recommend you use. We're still not sure we even have a real problem if they are working together."

"I am extremely satisfied with the mold inspection and remediation services! The team conducted a thorough inspection of the entire property, used professional equipment to measure moisture levels, and clearly explained where the issues were located. After we agreed on the scope of work, they promptly began the remediation process: everything was done carefully, using safe products, and they provided a detailed report with before-and-after photos. The entire process was smooth, on schedule, and stress-free. I especially want to highlight their high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to answer all my questions. Now the air in my home is fresh again, with no unpleasant odors. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable mold specialists!"

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, air duct cleaning can remove mold from the interior lines of HVAC systems. Professional air duct cleaning companies use tools and methods like brushes, cleaners, and vacuums to remove mold from air ducts. For successful mold remediation, it is essential to hire a reputable and experienced air duct cleaning service. Keeping your air ducts clean can also help prevent the conditions that allow mold to grow and thrive in your ductwork.

Yes, drywall mud can get moldy—though the presence of moisture is required for this to happen. That’s why the best way to keep your powdered drywall mud fresh for as long as possible is to keep it in dry storage conditions. If you live in a humid area, it might not make sense to stockpile a lot of powdered drywall mud before you’re ready to use it. As for premixed drywall mud, avoid opening the container until you’re ready to use it—and don’t expect it to last longer than six months.

Yes, carpet mold can spread if not addressed properly or quickly. Mold can spread to underneath the carpet, impacting the subfloor or attached walls. Mold and mildew can spread within the first 72 hours, so it is important to address the problem quickly and remove any affected carpet. 

Many caulk alternatives are safe for use in kitchens and food preparation areas, provided you apply them correctly and let them cure for the right amount of time. If you’re unsure about this step, call in a pro to do it for you. Silicone putty and caulk strips are often used around sinks and countertops due to their waterproof and flexible nature. Always choose products labeled as safe for kitchen use and follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper application and curing.

The high humidity of steam showers creates the ideal environment for mold growth, so it’s important to stay proactive against it. Along with regular cleaning, run your bathroom fan during and after your steam shower. Keep your shower door open and any doors and windows in the bathroom to allow the space to air out properly. If you come across ugly mold spores, spray them with undiluted vinegar, let it sit for at least an hour, and then scrub away the mold.
