"This was a great experience. I am very happy to have found Moldgone LLC. Everything was smooth from start to finish. The inspection was fast and simple, I received the quote quickly and the price could not be beat. They set the appointment and all communication in between were timely and informative. Jason & Curtis were my techs. They were friendly, fast, thorough, and did a wonderful job cleaning the model and repairing the area. I hope I never have mold again, but if I do, I will call them! Wonderful service and experience!"

"Bruce was very responsive to my call. We scheduled an appointment 2 business days after our first contact. Bruce was on-time and very professional. He looked at the basement and said it was a good waterproofing job and looked at the mold area - and it turns out its the type of mold we can remove ourselves by peeling the paint off. I couldn't be more grateful for his integrity in looking at our problem. Because of that I would call them again, use them and will highly recommend them to anyone I know who needs mold remediation."

"Mr. Rudd of Rudd's Indoor Environment and the service he provides are EXCEPTIONAL!. Mold can be a scary subject but if it is something you need to look into Mr Rudd is the man to look to. We used him to do a mold inspection for a home purchase. Very satisfied. He knows what he is doing and was very thorough, professional and very informative. At the same time he is easy to talk to and easy to contact if there are any follow up questions or needs. He often answered the phone right away, but if not, he returned my calls or emails quickly. He also made himself readily available for phone calls from any other involved parties (in our case the real estate agents) who need further explanations."

"Very knowledgeable and professional ! Jerel helped me understand the process and the fog treatment has helped to minimize my allergic responses in my office. We just need to advise the owner of the building so he will fog the entire workplace ! Mold is nothing to mess around with. It is a very long healing process and Jerel can help make things better so you don't keep getting sicker from it."

"great customer service, shows up on time and they stand by their work. I was worried about a mold smell months after the work was done and they send someone out to look over the house no charge. turns out it was just my dehumidifier, but I would definitely hire them again!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Black mold and wood rot are both types of fungi that thrive in damp areas, but they are distinct issues with different consequences. Wood rot specifically refers to the decay of wood caused by fungi, which compromises the wood's structural integrity. Black mold, on the other hand, is a fungus that grows on the surface of materials, including both rotting and non-rotting wood. The primary difference is their impact: wood rot affects the wood's structure, while toxic black mold is a health hazard. Inhaling black mold spores can cause severe respiratory issues, whereas wood rot spores are generally not harmful to people. Because mold can grow on rotting wood, the two issues can be interconnected, but they are not the same.

Mold is a blight on your home but over time, can be an extreme health risk, especially for immunocompromised individuals. Depending on the type of mold you’re dealing with, you could even experience neurological symptoms, or in extreme cases, you can be hospitalized. Even a tiny speck of toxigenic mold can cause a whole slew of very serious health issues. Deal with any mold issues immediately. 

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.

You can find the smell of mold in your house in two ways: following your nose, and using common sense tactics like looking anywhere there’s water first. Mold cannot form in a completely dry environment, which is why you see mold much more often under kitchen sinks than on garage floors. If you have looked everywhere and still can’t find the source, hire a pro, because you may have mold in your walls.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.
