"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."

"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"The mold inspector was very knowledgeable regarding the mold inspection process. He took samples of mold area for lab evaluation and air quality samples to check for mold in the air around the affected area. I was impressed with the thorough process used to check for mold. Mr Riddick the owner checked the air outside that was in close proximity to affected area. He answered all the questions and provided a date for the results of the inspection. Mr Riddick did an outstanding job and would highly recommend him for his service."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Yes, mold can easily grow under your hardwood floors, especially if your house has recently flooded or if there is a leak from a pipe under the floor. Hardwood floors can trap moisture beneath them, creating the perfect environment for mold to grow. Similarly, mold can also grow under your wood floor’s surface paint.

Knowing what to expect during a mold inspection can help make the process easier. Prepare by closing doors and windows for 48 hours, turning off HVAC systems for at least two hours, and avoiding disinfectant chemicals for at least 48 hours. 

The mold inspection process takes between 24 and 48 hours. Your professional will check walls, fireplaces, air ducts, vents, and windows for visible spores. They will also take an outdoor base air sample. Your pro will send these samples to a lab for testing and advise you on the findings.

Toxic black mold on wood appears as dark green or black patches. It often has a slimy or wet texture and may spread across the surface in a spotty pattern. The affected wood might appear discolored, soft, and damp. Identifying black mold early is crucial because it can cause severe health problems when its spores are released into the air. Prompt remediation is necessary to prevent further damage and health risks.

PVC is not considered a hazardous waste in most areas, but regulations vary by location. If in doubt, you should contact your local sanitation department to confirm. The Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) has been working to get PVC classified as hazardous waste, so it’s possible that it will be considered as such in the near future. If it is, disposing of PVC will require the use of a hazardous waste disposal facility or transporter in your area.

The signs of asbestos exposure are often subtle and may not appear for many years, or even decades, after initial contact. This long latency period is one of the primary dangers associated with asbestos.

When symptoms do manifest, they can include:

  • Shortness of breath

  • A persistent, dry cough

  • Chest pain or tightness

  • Fatigue

  • Wheezing

  • Weight loss

  • Difficulty swallowing

  • A dry, crackling sound from the lungs when breathing

These symptoms are non-specific and can be mistaken for other respiratory conditions, making diagnosis challenging. Prolonged exposure can lead to serious diseases as the asbestos fibers cause scarring and inflammation in the lungs. These conditions include asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

Due to the vague nature of early symptoms, regular medical check-ups are crucial for anyone with a known history of asbestos exposure, particularly in an occupational setting. If you suspect asbestos is present in your home, a professional inspection is recommended.
