"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."

"We were given detailed descriptions of the proposed mold removal process, and all our questions were answered in a clear, coherent way. Photos (from a crawl space) showed us just how much mold had accumulated from the leaking pipe. The work was performed with safety of all concerned in mind. Above all, the two men who came into our home were pleasant, professional, and kind."

"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

Mold can begin growing in as little as one to two days after your ceiling has been exposed to water. Mold grows and spreads quickly and can cause serious health problems. Always ensure areas with leaks are fully dried out, and any damaged material is replaced to discourage mold growth.

Mold can grow quickly in wet carpet: in as little as 12 to 24 hours. That’s why it is crucial to take action immediately if there’s any sign of water damage under your floor. Remove as much water as possible with a shop vac and towels, then use baking soda to help remove moisture deep in the fibers. Always steam clean the carpet or use an antibacterial carpet sanitizer to kill any mold growth.

If your home was built before 1989 and still has original vinyl, there’s a high probability of asbestos mixed into the old flooring, which can harm you and your family if it’s disturbed from removal. If you suspect that you have asbestos, you’ll want to call in an asbestos removal expert to evaluate the situation.

Mold can greatly impact your home's appraisal and lower your selling price if your home's on the market. Home appraisers take mold into account when figuring out a property's overall value. Mold will lower your home's price because it poses a health risk to household members and can compromise the structural integrity of the house. Mold will require remediation, which in extreme cases can be costly, so that is factored into your home's appraisal as well.

Eliminating mold from wood permanently poses a challenge as the mold spores have the ability to deeply penetrate the porous wood surface. While surface mold can be effectively eradicated with proper cleaning and preventative measures, it's difficult to guarantee its non-recurrence under favorable conditions. To prevent mold from reappearing, it is important to identify and resolve the root cause of the moisture that triggered mold growth initially.

Ensuring appropriate ventilation and a dry environment, or consider applying protective finishes such as sealant, varnish, or paint to prevent future moisture penetration and mold growth. Consistently inspect and maintain the area to keep the wood free from mold in the long term.
