"Lesson learned. Always get an estimate. BEFORE the work is done. At least a digital copy. Arrangements for the project were made, with some one named Lynn, for the company to send someone to complete the work. We were quoted over the phone 4500-5000 which included a mold test. A sub contractor with an entirely different company (National Mold Company) was sent. When the contractor arrived, he stated that the job would be much more simpler than first thought. This led us to believe that the job would cost less, no. All said and done, they charged $5500. All said and done, it's almost like no work was done. The stains and the smell are still there. Only one actual board was taken upon the attic room. The ceiling in the bedroom was primed and painted but are still visible and have a funky smell. At this point I'm going to. Do what we should have done; Do the job ourselves. Just now with $5500 less dollars in our pockets. A detailed receipt was not given even though it was requested."

We are a family owned and operated business. We are an independent 3rd party mold testing and mold inspection company. Mold remediation protocol written by the IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification) states that remediation companies should not do their own testing and testing companies should not do remediation, it is a conflict of interest. Not all mold projects needs to be professionally remediated. Our goal is to not only let you know if you do have excessive mold but how did you get it and how can you prevent it in the future by providing honest and outstanding service through dedication, hard work, attention to detail, integrity, and always focusing on our clients' best interest at hand. We know that the secret to our success has and will continue to be our satisfied clients. We will go anywhere in Maryland. Some of our clients include Governor Hogan, The Maryland State General Assembly, Property mangement companies, Insurance companies etc.

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

The gasket and drum of a washing machine are ideal spots for mold to grow. They are dark, warm, and humid, conditions that mold thrives in. The products you use to wash your clothing, such as fabric softener and detergent, can also encourage growth by giving the mold a food source.

Most grass mold isn’t harmful to humans. Slime molds in particular aren’t toxic and may even possess some benefits. Other molds, like powdery mildew and snow mold, generally aren’t a concern, but can still cause allergic reactions and respiratory distress in those with high allergy risk and compromised immune systems.  

Higher energy bills, ductwork over a decade old, poor airflow, and noisy ducts are a few common signs of bad ductwork. A moldy smell or musty odor, visual damage, increased allergies, and poor temperature control are other signs.

Bathroom tiles can contain asbestos, just the same as patio tiles or kitchen tiles. Remember that asbestos was used primarily for its insulative and fire-resistant properties, both of which are desired in a house. Before we knew asbestos caused cancers and other diseases, it made a lot of sense to include it in many different building materials, including bathroom tiles.

When doing any type of project involving mold, it's important to wear the right protective gear. You'll want an N-95 or KN-95 mask to keep yourself from inhaling mold spores, which can be irritating or trigger an allergic reaction in people with weakened immune systems. You'll also want to wear protective eyewear and gloves to limit your contact with mold.
